Unless they have concrete evidence against LeoVegas, then it's all just hearsay and up in the air. This story reminds me of when Affactive had their offices raided back in 2015 and were arrested. Not long after, I remember trying to open their site and it had been taken offline.

Here's the story I was talking about on AGD.

What goes around, comes around.

LeoVegas has fcked over a LOT of affiliates by terminating accounts and keeping commissions (ongoing or otherwise).

They're thieving crooks... Saying they are not involved in insider trading, seem far fetched - authorities don't raid offices for no reason.

AFAIK they were not guilty of insider trading.
Aside from hacking practically the entire web, they were actively running shake-downs connected with the stock market etc., etc.

Here's their FBI charge sheet... (Joshu.S.Murl Aaron - also named in charge sheet, was the 'original' WP hacker. He escaped to Russia)

Yes, absolutely, AussieDave. I too strongly believe in karma. It's very disgusting how many rogue programs are getting away with stealing and closing down affiliate accounts. There's nothing fair in this crazy world.
