Dear RPM Reps -

I was wondering if you could comment on how the recent domain name seizures of 10 poker sites as well as affiliated payment processors will affect the following services of Merge:
1. Offering of Services to US players.
2. Withdrawals from the Site

Thanks. The recent seizures have made it even scarier for US players. I'm just not sure how Merge is handling their processors/money, but I just wonder if we should be concerned.

Thanks.

I think one is a merge skin, beted.com. Would really like to hear something from RPMSeth on this.

I'm guessing beted used a different processor. Looks like this has to do only with sports and non-Merge

Time to remove accessing the cashier from the web! Do it from within the client.
At least change it from a dot com domain for starters. LDO

Reading up on this... the IRS, Homeland Security and DoJ all worked together to set up a payment processor to act as a sting operation, dating back to 2009

Glad there aren't any, like you know, terrorists in the world or anything.
