UK Betting Restrictions None Too Soon

As of September online casino players and internet bettors in the United Kingdom will be protected from identity theft and other criminal activities because of new restrictions from the UK Gaming Commission. And it seems like those new precautions are none too soon considering the UK terrorists that used credit card fraud, identity theft, and online casinos sportsbetting sites to launder money and fund terrorist activities.

Three terrorists were arrested last week on charges of stolen credit card information and money laundering as the lesser of the charges – some of the more severe charges included allegations that the suspected terrorist were using the Internet to “incite murder.” The terrorists plead guilty to the chares and will await sentencing. But that is not the most disturbing parts for online casino gamblers, and regular bettors.

The anti-terrorist investigators who investigated and arrested the terrorists found that the terrorist’s personal computers contained more than 37,000 stolen identities complete with credit card numbers and personal information. Additionally, the terrorists had already complete 350 transactions using the stolen information. This is startling news for the online casino sportsbetting sites that the terrorists used.

The UK has singled out the online casino gambling and betting industry as potential place to foster criminal activity, so the new September restrictions are coming at just the right time to ensure that other internet gamblers and bettors do not also suffer from stolen identity and credit card theft.

The three arrested who stole the information and used the online casinos and sportsbetting sites are: Tariq al-Daour, Wasneem Mughal and Younes Tsouli. Al-Daour is the one alleged to have the 37,000 stolen identities and credit card numbers on his computer.
