So, basically, US clients of these sites can kiss their $$$ good-bye. The means for the US government to do so will be Federal asset forfeiture statutes re: proceeds of crime. Ka-ching. Not that the money will do anything but pad a few resumes in the DoJ . . .
Wonder when they will turn their attention to the on-ine sports betting sites?
Morning all, just readying though some of the info on this and one thing seems to stand out to me.
The idea that PS, FT and other companies were using fake company names such flower or bike companies to process payments through the credit card companies seems like a open and shut case of illegal activity. If this is proven I cant see that they have much of a leg to stand on.
any thoughts?
Trust me, this is happening alot more then you guys think on other "gambling" sites then poker sites so people can use their credit cards again.
The cashout I did from Stars yesterday evening still has not shown up in my Moneybookers account... crossing fingers that it eventually does... It can take up to 48 hours.

posted on two plus two was that online companies hold players money in an over seas trust that the american governement has no juristiction on. its fine.
I have received my instadebit cashout as of last night into my bank account.
This whole mess has me split, one it really does not effect me unless they go after the payment processors also or Canada follows suit and I am loving the chaos and the effects it has on people who were assholes to me and screwed me couple of years ago.(what goes around comes around and it's great!).
Also what wetts said, if everything clears and good to go for us here it could be very good for us! aka new poker boom!:wink2:
Not that I care as I don't play there often, but FT gives me the same messages posted earlier about not being able to dl the update and to try again later.
