hi all, saw this news regarding egold and INTgold.. anyway i dun use INTgold, just need b careful if come across next time. comments abt this?

"According to the Herald Banner e-zine, this Friday FBI officers raided IntGold main office in respect to the case of a federal fraud investigation.

"Further details unavailable, and though IntGold customers freeze scared, company site still available and out-exchanges still possible.


"This weekend E-gold site was also unavailable for a very long time, as reported because of ISP issues, not related to any kind of DDoS or hackers attack.

"E-gold site' payment processor was returning back to normal functioning very slowly, possibly because of great number of user attempts occuring at time. Up to yesterday only about 10% of deposit or withdrawal attempts were confirmed successful.

"While the Friday bad news maybe related somehow to gold prices changing, or even goverment actions to take out free internet money, no official information about the issue was not provided, as it always had been with e-gold.

"What are other major gold market players? What transaction processing system pretends to be globally available, secure, backed by real gold instead of fiat currencies? Well, why use gold at all?

' "Backed by gold" also means better stability, lower appliances to goverment inflation, so from that point of view IntGold business failure was just a matter of time (as it was with evocash or dxgold or whatever fiat e-currency before)."
