Wow, just read this on: http://www.casino.nl/amsterdams-casi...-lucht-gehaald
Its in dutch so Here a short translation:

Aparently three people from Netgame solutions have been suspected of laundring drugmoney.

In the Netherlands two brothers, (Michel G and Maurice G) and a third person(Stijn F) have been arrested because they are suspected to have laundered drug money(Cannabis) through their company: Netgaming solutions, which holds several online casino brands including:
amsterdamscasino.com
amsterdamspoker.com
fruitluck.com
golden10casino.com
jackpotred.com
tanzoo.com
triplegoldcasino.com

All these online casinos have been taken offline and until the investigation is complete, they will stay offline and even may never return.


I guess some people never have enough money....

Yes wow, unless the casinos were the cover for their "real business". That was probably the case.

Well, Amsterdamscasino, to mention one, was actually quite a strong brand in The Netherlands.

Had good deposit bonus and loyalty bonus offers....

This is a sad day in gaming, and a sad story for everyone involved.

Was just reading on CM that this involves Sheriff Gaming: http://www.casinomeister.com/forums/...ts-seized.html

Dang. I'm not affiliated with any casinos, only poker sites so I'm safe from that. But I still dislike seeing stuff like this happening, because I hated when Pokerstars/Full Tilt went down on Black Friday for poker. Hopefully they weren't laundering money, and will be running soon again.

It's making gambling sites look bad if they're using them for illegal activities.

Sheriff Gaming has issued a press release distancing themselves from those indicted.

Little update:

Apparently Amsterdams Casino is back under new management as they say.


But all old casino users are removed, and people with an account with them are advised to make a new account.

People with old accounts with still money in it, may have trouble getting it back.

Cheers,
