I told my friend that these poker sites are EVIL and they are probably money launderers and criminals like it says - as they were charged with conspiracy to commit bank and wire fraud, money laundering and illegal gambling.

He said im a fucking idiot and that I should be able to read between the lines and that this is just a bullshit charge to attack legitimate businesses. Why would the United States put these websites on trumped up charges?

But the fact is, there has to be some kind of material for conspiracy theorists otherwise what would they do with their time?

[marketsmart]

no dummy... when the federal govt goes after you, they throw every charge they can at you...

all the fed wants is to seize the money and pave the way for vegas corporations to control internet gambling...

Are you a member of the conspiracy theorist club? My friend might know you.

While I think the poker sites shouldn't be illegal I do believe that they were shady on their money reporting and trying it hide and launder funds.

Hold on. Let me get this straight........

(1) Are you saying that the US is being dishonest in some way in making these charges?

(2) Are you saying you disagree with what Kristin is saying?

Then you are saying that these charges are basically "bullshit charges"..... am I right? Because governments dont do that.

As the article says.... "PokerStars, Full Tilt and Absolute used fraudulent means to work around the ban to continue operating in the U.S., and “trick” banks into processing payments on their behalf."

"The indictment names two principals from each company and others who allegedly worked with them to illegally process payments."

Money laundering is the practice of disguising the origins of illegally-obtained money.

Looks spot on to me....

Yes, the words *I believe* clearly show that I am speaking on behalf of their Accounting Department. (I also believe OJ had a hand in his wife's murder.)

Really, everything you comment on here has a direct effect on you?

I wouldn't be shocked at all if they actually were involved in shady stuff... perhaps maybe not intentionally, but it's a sure thing that poker sites were used for money laundering... the only question is how much $$ was laundered there, and did owners know about it...

after you get finished washing kristen's underwear can you please do the dishes and take out the garbage...

show me their tax statements and then you might have a case for money laundering..

did they play games to process the money of US gamblers?

yes, they did..

did they launder money?

i dont think so...

the US thinks they can dictate their law around the globe..

however, the US is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, lawbreakers in the world...
