Has this been brought up anywhere or are there any legal minds here that can elaborate?

As long as I can get my money, I don't care.

No, but it's against WU policy.

You'll probably have better luck in the legislation forum.

Only if the money being sent to you was gained from sportsbetting (and then only the site has criminal liability). The Wire act does not make a criminal out of the bettor under any circumstance.
