Online lotteries in BrazilReply
slampen,I can't believe you continue to support this scheme (WGI). What about the fact that they are lying about being registered in Norway?But wait, there's more. My great anonymous tipster sent me some more in-depth materials about them.This time from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commissions, including charges against CEO, Greg Kennedy and WGI's parent company, World Play Services for pyramid selling. His trial ended June 9, 2004 and the proceedings were adjourned for judgement.

$2B Powerball winner spotted in $250,000 vintage Porsche 911Reply
I wonder exactly how much cash is in that fat envelope of cash he's holding while exiting the bank. Not that it's any of my business (because it's not) and I don't care either, but.... If he withdrew more than $10,000 in cash, the bank is required by law to ask him what's he going to do with it. Depending upon the answer given to the bank, it could result in the bank electronically submitting a SAR to the U.S. Treasury Department's FinCEN (Financial Crimes Enforcement Network) for their

DE is/will be the First State to allow online gamblingReply
It's been illegal for residents of some states to gamble online for years and other states passed legislation against online gambling after the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 became law. i am not sure i like this type of system rolling out. Online gambling began in 1994 so it's hardly anything new. It's been legal to bet on horse racing online in the U.S. and in Kentucky for many years, but illegal to bet on other forms of online gambling in KY. Call it hypocrisy, but

tax strategyReply
I am an accountant who has a very large net operating loss ($4,800,000) that I think could be combined with someone's winning, but not yet redeemed lottery ticket to give both parties substantial additional income. Perhaps this would be my first reason to avoid you at all expense. Any, and I do mean ANY Accountant worth their salt would never let anyone other then those who absolutely must be informed, know they have an operating loss. Has anyone ever used this strategy or does anyone

online lotteryReply
I'm a bit confused about this online play because I've read it is not illegal Welcome to the club! I played online poker and it was simply setting up an account and using a regular bank checking debit account to deposit money into the online poker account. I could withdrawn from the poker account and the money would be in my debit account in less than three days. It was a legal transfer of funds for gambling to and from U.S. banks to foreign banks until Congress passed the Unlawful Inter

online gambling ban repelReply
I believe Rep. Barney Franks from MA has a bill that will change the language that made all forms of online gambling unlawful through the passing of Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act , or just simply known as UIGEA. There are two major organization (as far as i know) who are lobbying for the change of UIGEA language or a complete repeal of the law. They are IMEGA and PPA (Poker Players Alliance). I suggest googling the two organization so that you can get connected to the right ne

People who gamble on the Internet.People who don't gamble on the Internet, but are con

Predicting winning numbers? Fact or fiction?Reply
Yea paul762, That idea has crossed my mind,.. but the amount of attention and time to such an idea, makes it somewhat costly beyond the price of my tickets, which I try to keep under control... But, when I do hit a significant win amount, that idea wouldn't be as great a concern, as it would be before a significant windfall.. I'm thourghly convinced that their mainframe doesn't pick ITS numbers until it sees ours,.. for sure..!!.. for if it's strictly RANDOM, then why the need for the

If you knew the numbers before the drawing?
Although some may be aware of the true story about a newpaper printing the winning numbers prior to the drawing some years ago... The story basically goes like this.. What would happen if, crazy as it might sound, a newspaper published the correct numbers of a lottery before the numbers were drawn? This story begins where a Vancouver resident called Oregon Lottery officials claiming that the newspaper he was reading The Columbian had printed the winning numbers for that nights drawing in t
