FBI Shuts Down Poker Site Offering Deposit Loopholes
Pokerbandits.ca got a piledriver from the Government with a big nasty showdown. A WHOIS will put to rest any suspicions that the shutdown is a hoax. The google cache is still available (I will not mention details or directions on how to find it here), but the website basically offered ways of working with Canadians to get money transferred online.
Of course, if you're interested in earning entries for live tournaments, it wouldn't exactly help, would it? Please, God, let someone come forth and help us stop this madness, so we don't all have to act like idiots anymore.

Yeah, so this is basically a hoax ... I did some digging yesterday, and this is a full story on what's going on. No idea what the motives are, but the Department of Justice, FBI and Canadian governments had NOTHING to do with the sudden changes on this site.
