Port Security BillFriday, October 13th, 2006, President
George W. Bush signed the Port Security Bill and thus bringing it into law.
This Bill is to deter terrorists from smuggling weapons into the United
States inside shipping containers from foreign ports.
Attached to the bill was the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act
which forces U.S. financial institutions (banks, etc.) to prohibit online
gamblers resident in the U.S.A. from using credit cards, cheques and
electronic fund transfers (E.F.T.'s) to place and settle bets. The Bill
doesn't make online casinos illegal, it just makes it illegal for banks,
etc. to accept any payments to and from online casinos.
We, however, do believe that it is
illegal to gamble online in the following states:
Illinois, Nevada, Oregon, South Dakota, Indiana , Washington, Louisiana ,
Michigan, New York, New Jersey and Wisconsin
If you reside in any of these states,
please refrain from gambling online! The onus remains on you, the player, to
ensure that online gambling is legal in your state/jurisdiction!
