This is the most scary thing since the LEACH BILL was signed.

I would be shocked if NETELLER does not close out all sportsbook accounts withen 48 hours.

I thought the sky was not falling, but maybe it is.

 

[CHOPTALK]

I am waiting on a sizable deposit into my bank account that is late. I even started a thread about it a few hours ago.

Reuters just put it on their wire, basically nothing new just reiterating what was in the Neteller press release:

>>
LONDON (Reuters) - Online money transfer firm NETeller said on Tuesday two of its founding shareholders - Stephen Lawrence and John Lefebvre - had been detained by U.S. authorities on Monday.
It said neither Lawrence nor Lefebvre had any current position with or connection to the company, other than as shareholders.
It also said the group (NLR.L: Quote, Profile , Research) had not received any communication or correspondence from any U.S. authority regarding the matter and the board had sought immediate temporary suspension of its shares.

shit...our government is acting pretty fast on this issue

I'd be curious if either of these 2 were involved with any "Affiliate Programs" and were still collecting money from them.

 

[Aceking]

there's nothing to worry about , they are not BOS .

at worst , you'll get your money back .

 

[gynecologist]

I think we are overreacting a little bit..

 

[dickiesports]

wake up for your own sake. neteller processes $$$ for every sportsbook online. they are public. could be a huge disaster.....if all of their assets were seized (not saying that is whats happening) but you could never see a penny again... your money @ neteller is not FDIC insured, If they froze all US accounts and never paid out a penny good luck suing a company in the Isle of Man....WAKE UP. did any of the people who had money in BETONSPORTS ever see a penny ? No didnt think so....
If Pinny shutdown all together no one would have got a PENNY...

hno:

I actually just typed in a bunch of gibberish when registering this account, always intending to change it. But a year later I'm still stuck in Njdfjkfd.

I agree

 

[AlwaysKeen]

I'm in a similiar situation as choptalk...am thinking worst case we'd be able to withdraw our funds from neteller...

 

[gynecologist]

Charges have not been filed yet.

Neither men have been involved with NETeller for a few years now

NETeller is a publicly traded company

Nor is it known at this time if the two men are being detained for anything having to do with their involvement in NETeller.

Other than as shareholders, neither Mr Lawrence nor Mr Lefebvre has any current position with or connection to NETELLER.

The Group has not received any communication or correspondence from any US authority regarding this or any related matter.

How does the Government "detain" and not file a charge?
Remind me again about ...."THIS IS OUR COUNTRY"
