Advice from a real attorney
Get yourself a criminal attorney where you live, NOW. If you can find one who handles criminal state tax matters, that is preferable. Do NOT go to that interview without legal counsel.
"I have found out that involves offshore gambling". How ? What else did YOU tell them already ?
Now, how and what could they know ?
1. They likely are fishing a bit from the tax side. They have two possible sources of information about financial transactions.
a. Most likely, you used a credit card at some online gambling site which was processed through a company that was indicted in Salt Lake City. along with BetUS. That would yield deposits information, which is a lot different than any "win" information. It is possibly, though less likely, given that you are in Utah, that this traces back to Neteller. My gut feeling is that it is related, if anything, to the BetUS indictments.
b. Someone who knows you ratted you out.
2. Ask your legal counsel what your legal obligations are for this interview. Did they ask you for records ? Is there a subpoena served ? You need to know what your rights are, really.
