However, i don’t think the DOJ is going that route they are saying that these companies broke the law for "money laundering" issues… using fake names to diguise their deposits to look legitimate so it wouln’t breach UIGE Act

Now the FBI + DOJ have confiscated all their funds (frozen to be exact) one of which i have money in… Full Tilt Poker… who had very poor accounting… mixed the deposits of player funds in with their revenue and possible spent some of it… its unclear…

My Question is… how likely and lhow long is the DOJ of America allowed to freeze these bank accounts… they’re still frozen for a month a half now

Considering online poker caters not just to Americans… it caters to Oversea player such as myself where i reside in Australia where it legal to play poker online

Can the US government just take all that mixed pool of money??? even if it is legal cash balances of players from overseas?

(I am currently researching this alot) And the concept of "Personal Jurisdiction" keeps popping up? what does this mean?

Also are there any landmark cases involving internet things of this nature

Please state that you know things for a fact… and it is not just your opinion…

I am concerned with Full Tilt specifically… i’ve been trying to follow this very up to date… everywhere i look i see that FTP’s main funds are still frozen by the DOJ…

The news about their Bank Of Ireland account… was never frozen by the DOJ… it was frozen by BOI as a form of compliance with the US… the DOJ also comfirms that no bank accounts of FTP has been released

They used fake names such as pet stores… to diguise player deposits so it would not appear as poker or "gambling" transactions online

Also ive been looking everywhere… and i saw someone wrote that throughout history… with cases involving online gambling sites… in the US and the DOJ freezing these funds… that never has the DOJ after freezing bank accounts given these accounts back to the companies

Is the DOJ allowed to touch player deposits? (WHICH ARE NOT EVEN REVENUE)? even if they tried to deposit it illegally? which is overseas player funds
