I don't doubt that the Feds want more, but read the article again--it doesn't actually say anything:

The US Department of Justice enforcers are about to target another online gambling executive for arrest, it has been rumoured.
Responding to a press enquiry, the Dept of Justice denied any such warrants existed.
High-profile arrests, such as the recent detention of Neteller founders John Lefebvre and Stephen Lawrence have sent shockwaves through the international online gambling business and caused damage to investor confidence.
In response to the reports, a Department of Justice spokesperson said: 'Nothing would be made public until an individual or company was charged.”
According to sources in Washington DC, the US authorities are on the verge of unsealing another set of indictments against a high-profile US-facing betting and gaming operator. However, there is currently no inclination as to who the operator or operators might be.

Scarlett Johansson will be spending the weekend with The Prophet having hot sex, it has been rumored.
Responding to a press inquiry, Ms. Johansson's publicist denied that any sort of hot sex was imminent.
The Prophet has long wanted to have hot sex with Ms. Johansson.
In response to the reports, a spokesperson for the actress said that "Nothing will be made public until after the hot sex has occurred".
According to sources in Hollywood, Ms. Johansson is on the verge of meeting The Prophet in a sleazy Sunset Strip hotel for a weekend of hot sex. However there is currently no indication in which hotel the hot sex could occur.

The first and last paragraphs say the same thing--there is a rumor of "X".
The second and next to last paragraphs say that there has been no official verification of "X".
The middle paragraph is a statement of fact.
Plus in the original story the writer uses the word "inclination" improperly, meaning to say "indication".
This is what is known as lazy journalism. If the event never occurs, no big deal since it was reported as a rumor. If it does occur, the source can claim that they "broke the story".

...but in other news the the UK Bookmakers Review believes the DOJ intends to build more cases.
" 22-01-2007 DoJ to build cases against all who have profited from online gambling in the US
The US Department of Justice has issued subpoenas to at least sixteen banks and law firms to hand over all e-mails, telephone records and documents connected with internet betting firms. HSBC, Dresdner Kleinwort, Credit Suisse and Deutsche Bank are known to be among the banks that have been served with subpoenas.
According to industry experts, the ultimate goal for the US DoJ is to use the bank records to find information incriminating the founders of the online gambling firms."
