Police Bust Mob-Run Online Casino

 

30 suspects were arrested today in New York for their involvement in an alleged illegal online gambling ring, according to officials.

One of the most notorious suspects is Joseph Fafone, who is a known associate of the infamous Gambino crime family of New York.  Fafone’s association with the online gambling operation involved delivering large sums of money to clients, including one delivery of over $500,000, according to reports.

Fafone may also be the head of the online gambling arm of the mob operation, which is suspected of spanning from Las Vegas to Central America.

Officials believe the online gambling operation, which  mostly dealt with sports wagers, accepted approximately $20 million a month in bets from nearly 8,000 clients.

Now that the police have shut down this large online betting operation, the funds of the sport’s books clients will most likely be forfeited to police.  This story is a fantastic example of why it is important to only deal with the most reputable online casinos, like Silver Oak Casino.

Silver Oak is Central Dispute System certified, meaning you are always protected when you play.  Silver Oak is also licensed by RTG, one of the most trusted names in online casinos, so you can be sure your gambling dollars are safe.
