I find it totally unbelievable that a group of individuals with as much money tied up have done exactly nothing to try and recoup their funds.
Its almost as though you all feel that its someone elses responsibility to come in and bail you out.
Over the course of the past few months I have made many posts about my research as it progressed, suggested courses of action or inaction in other cases, ie chasing the police idea, (obvious that no one had read Interpol's mandate) or the fact that there was no criminal action here only civil.
The law in Australia protects the players.
I have read it and understand the appropriate sections.
Certain player's balances should be 100% protected by the law.
Other players who had made a partial withdrawl request should be protected for 100% of the withdrawl request, whilst the remainder would form a portion of the players pool.
And lastly, I believe a case can be made to the appropriate authorities to force the liquidators to recognize the players funds as secured rather than unsecured.
I spent most of my career working the law and by that I mean reading and interpreting it and bending it to my will where possible.
So people read the Interactive Gambling (Player Protection) Act, specifically the sections starting with sec 134.
OR
Hire a good gaming lawyer in Aus, have him do the research for you, assemble the names, players balances and supporting documents to write to the Gov't and come up with a workable strategy, shouldn't cost any more than $15-$20K.
