Title 18 of the U. S. Postal Code was adopted in 1956 as a measure against organized crime and certain money-laundering schemes they used to legitimize the money they earned in illegal activities. With the conviction of Al Capone in 1931, the IRS began taking a very active part in lobbying for this type of federal legislation. Following the repeal of the Prohibition Act in 1933, illegal gambling quickly emerged as the Mob's primary source of income. Lottery tickets are included in Title 18 b

$1.4 BILLION: Powerball jackpot juggernaut keeps rollingReply
In addition to my history with JP Morgan not being a pleasant one, I know they just settled the trafficking charges against Jeffrey Epstein, thus whoever folks seek to work with it is good to check them out as there are others who may be a better fit. You should also look into the background on financial planners as well... (my former planner had major strikes against them for illegal activities, nothing that harmed me but I don't do anything with them anymore). Always good to do

Predicting winning numbers? Fact or fiction?Reply
You should notify the authorities if you have evidence of the lottery's illegal activities. You even told us they hacked into your computer to steal your math! How brazen they are! Anyway, you are the one who constantly brings up the idea that the lottery officials change the numbers after the drawing to prevent you, specifically, from winning, so you should not get so testy when people ask you simple questions about these nefarious deeds. It's a public forum. If you don't want people to ask

Lottery scam with a twist hitting Central TexasReply
Wow, I had something similar to that happen to me last month. I received a call from someone with a Washington, D.C. number stating they were from the U.S. Treasury and I had been awarded a $8,000 grant to do whatever I wanted to do with as long as it wasn't for illegal activities or gambling. I was given a 6 digit number and instructed to call another number for details on how to claim my grant. When I called the other number I was told the same thing and that the money was tax free and I didn'

Mass. Lottery knew about exploited game's flaws for years, IG saysReply
spending $40 million on tickets over a seven-year period and winning an estimated $48 million. It says they won $48 million, so does that mean they only profited $8 million? Does anyone know how many were in the group? I guess it would be worth it for the almost sure money they were getting, but it seems like they would be getting a lot more than they were, figuring all the illegal activities they and others were doing in order to win. It would make more sense to me if they profited t

Jack Whittaker does it again.Reply
To see this man in the news for stupid decisions is soooo irritating. I remember back when he won a few people at my job were upset because he won and was already a millionaire. They felt that he shouldn't have been playing at all. I came to his defense and let them know that anybody that has a dollar has the opportunity and a chance to win, regardless if its Donald Trump or the guy on the corner that begs for spare change. Then to see him in the news making what we think are foolish decisi

Wal-Mart Warning - If you play lotto . . .
It's interesting how you can shop at a store like Wal-Mart without getting any idea what the owners are thinking.Recently Wal-Mart has put up a website to promote and sell merchandise and have begun searching for approporiate web sites to host their banners advertising the new web site.I don't know about you, but I've shopped at Wal-Mart for years and was rather surprised to learn some of the kinds of web sites Wal-Mart finds unacceptable including those that 'Promote alcohol, tobacco, gambling/

How many websites do you think I give free advertising too just by having BONER as my screenname? I tried to limit my opinion on free advertisement of specific gambling sites with the potential of involving illegal activities. I have no opinion on advertising competitor sites or any other site because this site has the option to edit parts of the posts pertaining to those site. If I was told not to post those types of links, I wouldn't argue why. It's a fine line on what's legal and what
