...and getting stronger.

Do not be alarmed at the U.S. going after the BetOnSports Crime Family. Its been a long 4 year investigation by the Feds and they only targeted one company. This company has been built on lies, theft, and outright stiff jobs.

Part of the fraud indictment against these scammers is the creation of the Offshore Gaming Association aka OSGA and the International Sportsbook Council and presented them as independent watchdog agencies, when in fact their purpose was to sweep player complaints under the rug.

The U.S. has indicted BOS with fraud. Setting up phony watchdog sites that conspired with BOS to scam american citizens. It is also part of the civil complaint to shut down the company. I wish the prosecutors all the success in the world.

Chuck,

No one knows what will happen next....

Perhaps you should read this excerpt from an excellent article written today...

http://news.independent.co.uk/busine...cle1185330.ece

Flying to the US has suddenly become a fraught affair for the host of City heavyweights who sit on the boards of any online gaming company with business across the Atlantic, following David Carruthers' arrest at Dallas airport.

Although the internet gaming industry was at pains to insist that BetonSports was being specifically targeted, privately many are concerned at the implications of the US authorities' first major attempt to flex its muscles in the multibillion-dollar gaming industry.

Bob Holt, the founder of the social housing group Mears, who was hired to lend credibility to the SportingBet board, admitted none of the company's directors had any plans to head Stateside. Nigel Payne, the chief executive, is a frequent US visitor and, like Mr Carruthers, has lobbied hard for the US to legalise online gaming.

"We're reviewing the situation daily but there are no plans at the moment [for any US travel]," Mr Holt said.

PartyGaming privately insists the incident is restricted to BetonSports' sports-betting activities - something the poker giant does not touch - but it has been caught up in the fallout. Michael Jackson, the outgoing Sage chairman who took on the PartyGaming chairmanship, and his fellow non-executive Brian Larcombe, the former chief of 3i, could compromise other businesses' activities by avoiding the US: Mr Larcombe sits on the board of Smith & Nephew, which has big operations in the US.
