Maryland Online Gambling Investigation Seizes Emails

California online payment-processor, Electracash, Inc., continues to be charged by federal investigators out of Maryland who are in the midst of probing the industry.  The primary target appears to be Electracash's connection to New York-based Intermedia. 

U.S. District Court magistrate judge James Bredar signed the latest seizure warrant on October 9.  Police Detective Richard S. Gunn of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement applied for the email warrant in addition to previous warrants tied in to the online gambling industry.  Gambling911.com had reported exclusively last month that the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency was involved in the case. 

The Baltimore office had previously filed charges against another online gambling payment processor, Electracash, and its owners, Edward Courdy and Michael Garone.  Both men were charged with money laundering last year.
