So they were detained or they still are detained. My guess drugs

[gergery]

they are apparently large shareholders of a company that could easily be thought of as in the business of financing gambling, which is a violation of the wire act. there is enough wiggle room that these guys will probbly just get saber-rattled tho.

I'm guessing the prosecutors are looking for info from them on how neteller operates, and to send a message to other financial intermediaries to do more to choke off gambling.

This is speculation... the arrests could have something to do with another business venture they are involved in now.

I would expect another press release with more info... at the very least this is certain to be a topic of discussion on Neteller's Thursday conference call. I posted details on the call in the Neteller Update thread.

I'm not worried about the funds but I would be in bad shape if the money was tied up for even a week. I just depsited $10K from my Neteller account to WSEX, Stars and Bodog just in case. I used to keep 30% of my bankroll in Pinnacle and 30% in Neteller, when I first heard this news I was in panic mode because I happen to have had 85% of total roll in Neteller.

To be fair, not all governments are identical: I think that most people would agree that US governments of, say, 100 years ago were a lot different than they are now. It's still possible to be better or worse than someone else...

You realize that 100% of the voting population did not vote the current administration into office, don't you? I guess not.

My prediction is that the arrest is based on activity these guys were engaged in while they were involved in Neteller, but that their crimes do not implicate the company itself. There are many non-gambling type crimes they could have committed.

Of course, I have no actual information to support this prediction.

how could this even have to do with gambling. the regulations aren't even in place yet, and they aren't hosting a gambling site.

just wait it out, and no, ur funds aren't going anywhere, they're a 7 billion $ company. the arrests of 2 former employees won't change a damn thing so stop posting ridiculous questions/comments you fish.

this isn't directed at you Wynton, u were the last post and i quote just to quote.
