In addition, restraining orders were issuedagainst more than 75 bank accounts utilized by the PokerCompanies and their payment processors, and five Internet domainnames used by the Poker Companies to host their illegal pokergames were seized.
Manhattan U.S. Attorney PREET BHARARA said: "Ascharged, these defendants concocted an elaborate criminal fraudscheme, alternately tricking some U.S. banks and effectivelybribing others to assure the continued flow of billions inillegal gambling profits. Moreover, as we allege, in their zeal
to circumvent the gambling laws, the defendants also engaged inmassive money laundering and bank fraud. Foreign firms thatchoose to operate in the United States are not free to flout thelaws they don’t like simply because they can’t bear to be partedfrom their profits."
