jesus, look at this...

whats latest on this?

the attorney general is still on vacation

Exactly :disgust Why people want the government to be in control of companies and other aspects of our lives is beyond me... it just creates more lazy ass people who get paid not to give a shit... :mad:

I contacted them yesterday for a status update and asking for the balance in our account with them to be wired back into our checking account and was told.

"unfortunately your funds are still being held by the DOJ"

Whilst it is not a huge amount of money of our that is frozen it has caused hours of additional hours in re issuing checks and going back to issuing check / epassorte in-house again is something I was hoping to move away from...

As the great Bob Sugar once said: It's not "show friends." It's show *business.

bump anything new going on?

I'm interested as well!

Just got a new check from them issued through Wells Fargo, lets hope its safe to cash!

is this company out of business?

so still no updates from them

Nothing has changed as far as I am aware. They still have our money.

Contacting them via your attorney is the only way to get a response.

i just talked to them i wont release a statement contact them directly

So whats the deal? DOJ freezes their account because of? Was it one company that was committing fraud or some other criminal activity? Or was it Webmaster checks?

What I want to know is why is WMC so quiet on this? Has the DOJ muzzled them? Are some of their clients about to be gone after by the DOJ? Can they not talk because of national security letter patriot act bullshit? I guess we will all find out eventually...

wonder if the doj is going to use that information to go after affiliates.

If not the DOJ the IRS...

is this the next IBILL?

Nah, the Feds are involved. This is something unique...

I would guess the DOJ froze the account due to a pending investigation/grand jury indictment that's probably on its way to be handed down.

I'm sure WMC's attorneys advised they to keep their mouths shut because anything they can say could catch them an obstruction of justice charge :2 cents:

because legal issues shouldn't be talked about on a forum. :2 cents: who knows what their going through it might be public record. i just looked it up it's there but no minutes. anyone in az can go view it i think if the case is finished.

spill the fucking beans.

I don't care that they don't keep GFY updated, but I find it odd they are not updating most, if not all, of their clients by email or phone.

criminal investigation = all parties STFU until its over :2 cents:

Most often the people screaming for public statements have no direct involvement in the case.

If they have your money, contact them direct. If they don't respond contact the DOJ.

I don't think it's that complicated.

So what's up with this? Is webmasterchecks dead? I really need some new easier options for paying affiliates with several payment methods.

Are there alternatives to webmasterchecks?

Nothing has changed as far as I am aware. They still have our money.
