Is e-gold Under Federal Investigation?

I was in two minds about whether to post this here, but it seems to be doing the rounds on the forums, so here goes.

What`s your view, would you give this any credence? Or is it a question of `getting your knickers in a twist` over nothing? Personally I reckon that there`s little foundation for this scare, and it seems that most others who`ve posted in response do too. Still, you never know do you?

Quote:
Today all of my Bank of America accounts were shut down by Bank of America Security and Investigations Division.

The reason was because of bank wires I have recently sent out that mentioned "e-gold" in the memo of the wire. It seems E-gold is under Federal investigation, and very likely will be shut down in Febuary for good. Bank of America was alerted to this (by the FEDS) and was instructed to terminate any and all accounts of anyone believed to be a customer of, or dealing with e-gold... and they did! It didn't matter I only bought egold through one account, they closed them ALL that were connected to me in any way.

This is the 2nd time I have been told egold is in serious trouble and will be gone in Febuary. I just wanted to warn you all!

We have recently received reports of this rumor, but there is no truth to
the rumor.

Thank You,

Well, heads-up, folks, because methinks the plot is thickening.

I hope everybody will take the time to visit Talk Gold, because the fellow whose accounts were terminated (and money refunded) by Bank of America, has posted a link to an audio recording where he gives his account of what happened.

Listen to it. Listen that he says he has a mailing list and a small hyip (or words to that effect, I haven't listened in the last hour), and note that he says he does e-currency exchanges.

Well, I did a forum search over there to find his previous posts, and there are only a handfull. One caught my eye. He posted a link to a site to do PicPay exchanges. Well, here's the link, fellow hyipers:

http://www.pay-mart.com/

The guy who owns the site gives his personal history. It makes a VERY interesting read. Could this be ASAP1000's site??

I think this guy wants some attention, which ever way he can get, and wants to make good use of this attention, which he will get eventually.....

Maybe he means no harm, maybe not.......

Well, he admits it's his site. And he also is advertising it on the PIPS forum for people who want to fund Pic Pay. He's also been buying PicPay on the Pips-Exchangers forum, over $10 K in December, it looks like. (The links are on TG)

I'm not going to attribute a particular motive to any of this. It could even be a simple case of getting caught with his pants down because his BoA relationship got terminated. Certainly doesn't look like he paid a lot of attention to how to handle his financial transactions in the FLO chat room, where he spent a lot of time as well.

This is apparently a recording by the individual whom all this B.O.A./e-gold issue is all about.

It does make interesting listening.

Today, he states that he might have reached a "resolution" with BOA, whatever that means.

Here`s just a portion of a lengthy post this person has made elsewhere.

I did mention somewhere that I might have found a resolution with the Bank of America problem. I said that after I later realized I had a Corporation that was not part of my personal profile, and that account was the resolution to the problem of my customers not being able to do business with me via BofA deposits. There will be no resolution on the accounts they closed.

Obviously I will try to comply with msb.gov, or if that is not possible I will go offshore completely if it becomes necessary, but I still have many reservations about all of the IBC concepts and misconceptions out there.

In my opinion, I don’t think egold will be shut down, but “something” is going on. At the very least we will be seeing egold requiring ID documentation on all US customers.

Hope this helps answer some questions.

ASAP
