gary, we'll have disagree here. This usage of e-gold can only add bad PR to the e-gold name. e-gold should take action to prevent the use of their system by these scams, and this is a scam no matter what your definition of ethics happens to be. I hope your defensive statements are not based

I have not read the other messages, but I think this comment is very wrong headed. Offshore banks are just banks in "other jurisdictions". I live in Belize, and banks here are not offshore for me. There are many advantages to using offshore banks which include confidentiality, greater

We all recognize the potential bad PR. But what should be done about it? I like someone's idea to come up with 'respectable' ways that use e-gold (I am working on one). But even that: define respectable. I don't like gambling too much, but some friends like to blow $500 in Vegas. They stop at
