Getting Sued by Citibank
Date: Thu, 07/17/2008 - 08:05
These funds were to go towards E-Gold which was used for online gambling debts at Five Dimes Gambling.
I sent out letters Explaining this to JMC the first collection agency and they returned it to Citibank, citibank then referred it to a law firm/collection agency and i sent basically the same letter informing them that these debts are uncollectible based on the Internet Gambling Law of 2006.
Can anybody help me out? What should I do?
Thanks,
Steven

Ok..I see I didn't dig deep enough. Again, it will be up to the judge to decide if you are responsible. You can raise that as a defense but ultimately you're going to have to go thru the process.
