Hellinger processed online gambling payments for a number of prominent i-Gaming ventures during the period 2005-2006 including now-defunct BetOnSports.com and Bodog.com, which has since become Bovada.lv. 

Don Hellinger, President of Quadra Media,LLC publisher of Inked, Inked Girls and Freshly Inked Magazines, was charged with the alleged illegal distribution of over $40 million in Internet gambling winnings during that period through a money transfer company, Payment Processing, Inc. 

Hellinger is currently free while awaiting trial and continues in his role as Publisher of the aforementioned magazines.
