Financial Institutions Warning Clients

With the federal government enforcing these laws that say that online slot machines and gambling are illegal, many financial companies are pulling out of the market – and will no longer be accepting any sort of payments for US customers. However, as on the surface as that seems, there is another very big problem, and that is the money currently out there.

When Neteller was shut down and their founders arrested, many of the financial institutions started panicking and putting as much distance as they could from their US clients. Add to that the fact that the US government froze all of their accounts, and you have a lot of people who can no longer access their accounts or get back their money.

Many companies immediately started putting up the blockades and started warning their clients that not only would they not continue to service them, but that they advised their clients to start pulling out their funds. PokerRoom told their clients to take their cash now, just this week.

There are some companies willing to take the risk and are still servicing US customers, but they are far and few between. If you choose to continue to play the online slot machines and gamble, just make sure that you send your money to a reputable company and that you don’t get ripped off.
