NETeller Co-Founder Lefebvre Pleads Guilty
July 10, 2007
Haley Hintze
NETeller Plc cofounder John David Lefebvre has agreed to a plea deal with U.S. federal prosecutors in the criminal conspiracy case against him and co-founder Stephen Lawrence, it was announced today. The plea deal mirrors that accepted by Lawrence some two weeks ago, with Lefebvre agreeing to cooperate with prosecutors and testify if necessary, and to partly responsible for the $100 million in fines the U.S. government has been seeking.

As with Lawrence, the plea deal on the single charge carries a maximum sentence of five years, though it is believed that a shorter sentence — with perhaps no time served at all also a possibility — is part of the deal. The plea was entered before U.S. District Judge P. Kevin Castel in a Manhattan courtroom; Castel was the same judge presiding over the Lawrence plea agreement.

NETeller quickly exited the U.S. market following the January arrests of Lawrence and Lefebvre, voluntarily abandoning roughly two thirds of its overall market, despite the fact that at the time of the arrests, Lefebvre and Lawrence were no longer NETeller officials. During the first half of 2006, NETeller processed over $5 billion in money-transfer transactions, with nearly all of those transactions related to online gambling.

Still unresolved, and awaiting a near-future update, is the repayment plan for the approximately $155 million in U.S. customer deposits frozen by NETeller when the U.S. blocked its transfer channels into and out of the U.S. Those funds are separate from the $100 million in fines assessed against Lefebvre and Lawrence in the criminal-conspiracy proceedings.

It looks like NETELLER is getting ready to stiff-arm us again: New NETELLER Press Release

I hope Lefebvre goes to in prison...
Although I'd say the odds of him actually serving time are worse than the odds of us getting our money back anytime soon.

Did anybody really believe that crap about the US players getting their money back?

" However, the Company believes that these and other recent developments will likely delay its efforts to resolve the investigation by a short period. A further update will be given on 13 July 2007. "

My prediction is that tomorrow we get a press release that says "Neteller will be returning money to its US customers by check or to original bank account....(all stuff we know), the timeline for this will be established shortly....."

or

"Withdrawal requests will begin being processed on Dec. 1, but due to the large volume of requests may take 8-12 weeks."

That's such BS, they said in the statement that we'd have our funds NO LATER than July 13th. Now, basically they are saying again we won't be getting funds any time in the near future. So stupid, someone should sue em for false statements.

[AncientPC]

Sue 'em? They have no more assets to sue and they'll just drag on litigation for months costing you money . . . sort of like how they're screwing their customers around.
