Neteller’s Customers Face More Delays
Monday February 19, 2007
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York late Wednesday said it extended the deadline until March 16 to decide whether to indict the co-founders of Neteller. Stephen Lawrence and John Lefebvre were arrested in January on a charge of conspiracy to transfer funds with the intent to promote illegal gambling.
Neteller says U.S. authorities have frozen access to about $55 million in U.S.-based accounts. This means that players trying to get their money out of Neteller will have to wait even longer. I have had a withdrawal that has been pending now for several weeks. I now wonder if I will ever get my money back.
