Lots of 'nice badges' on this page now:
http://libertyreserve.com/index.htmlI wonder how many honest people just got robbed of their savings and funds.
Here we have Department of Justice, Global Illicit Financial Team, Criminal Investigation Department of the Treasury US Special Agent, United States Secret Service, Homeland Security Investigations Special Agent, was it not enough to just write: "We seized the money, regards US Govt".
So, in the alleged fight for justice, they just shut down the business of a company without sending them to trial first, and in the process they seize the accounts for all account holders. Well, if you used LR, you've got to be a criminal anyway - too bad for you - is probably in their line of thinking.
There's a lot of honest folks having their money seized now. I believe the crooks here are the US Govt, at least you don't prevent crimes by making other crimes (ie. stealing people's money). This is what they are doing.
If they want to shut down entities that deal in illicit transactions, the first thing they would need to do would be to shut down the entire US banking system on US soil. Is there at all any bank that has not aided in illicit transactions and been given a fine for the last 20 years ? Did we see any of these banks have their website shut down and the bosses arrested? No.
Why? Because those organizations are powerhouses. They rule the world. They can do whatever the hell they want, and the consequences are a mild slap on the wrist and being told not to be naughty anymore.
The US Govt do not care about catching criminals and protecting the children (just look at drone bombing of innocent children in Afghanistan, it's just collateral damage when trying to kill the evil terrorists, how many are killed by now - are we even after 9/11 yet??), they only care about their own power and might. They want to control the US dollar. They know that controlling the money means having the power.
Everyone that have lost money in the LR debacle, and wants to go public with their names, should write letters to US embassies in their country and let the US know what their opinion is. There's a lot of people here who lost a lot of money, and some people were dependent on the money that they lost.
This is basically scare tactics and who knows who they want to target next. If they decide that too many people use bitcoin for childporn, drugs, terrorist financing and whatever scapegoat they can come up with, people involved with bitcoin will be next. When you're first engulfed in a case, you're into a lot of shit, and it's not fun.
