Re: Guardian newspaper confirms FBI seizure of some Neteller funds.
I definitely can see how the FBI could seize funds from within the U.S.
However, as far as I know, Neteller's trust accounts are NOT with U.S. financial institutions.
Can the FBI seize money whenever they wish from financial institutions NOT located in the U.S.?
Taking the extreme example of a drug dealer who has say a Swiss bank account? If U.S. authorities found out about this Swiss account, could they seize all the funds? Would the Swiss bank automatically comply with the FBI and send them all proceeds from that account?
