OP: sounds like you got a bit more information and a timescale. If you haven't, you should have done and I'd agree with CS guy that a lawyer's letter before action may at least jog them into committing to those two things if they haven't already, although a lawyer would not be saying anything you couldn't say yourself. I'd be glad to help you draft a suitable letter if you'd like. I definitely think you should get a commitment to pay interest as I said before.

The intent of a lawyer letter is that it threatens a site with bad publicity. I would guess that a site like Full Tilt Poker that relies so heavily on marketing and PR as a strong part of its business model to not let a poorly handled fraud investigation bring it down. Imagine if this story breaks out into mainstream headline news.

If there is criminal activity, are the police notified?

This depends on the jurisdiction and the severity of the case. With big fraudulent cases, usually ones that exceed over $100,000 in fraudulent funds the FBI, Secret Service, Interpol and other international law enforcement agencies have been actively involved working together with the sites and the processors.

I am honestly concerned for sillysal. I really hope she at least hears something from FTP. Please keep us updated on this situation, I can only imagine what a nervouse wreck this had made you.

Any reason? Her latest update said she had heard and it should be resolved soon (whatever that means). And without knowing what FTP knows who is to say whether sillysal is innocent or guilty (sillysal, I am not saying you are but nobody here knows).

Things have got way off topic with solicitors and jurisdiction of USA courts. The only problem I see is that FTP were not keeping sillysal informed on a regular basis as to how long the investigation was really going to last.

This is BS from FT. With the way they are handling the disconnect problems with other players as described in other threads to screwing SillySal around, I'm pulling all my money out of there. My God, Absolute responded quicker once they got caught.
