With the recent passing of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Funding Prohibition Act in the U.S. House of Representatives, the potential banning of Internet gambling by way of blocking all payment mechanisms has become a hot topic once again. Gaming author and speaker, Mark D. Schopper, J.D., covered this issue in some detail in a recent issue of the Chapman Law Review. The article, "Internet Gambling, Electronic Cash & Money Laundering: The Unintended Consequences of a Monetary Control Scheme," discusses the unintended consequences of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Funding Prohibition Act and has already been cited to and referenced by numerous journals and publications.
The River City Group has gained Mr. Schopper's permission to post a copy of the article on its Web site. The author may be reached by email at mdschopper@hotmail.com.
