| description | Gold & Silver Reserve's tangle with the US government is deepening. The company operates a bullion-backed "digital currency" unit called e-gold that US law enforcement officials say has become a popular payment system for online criminals. On Dec. 16, agents from the US Secret Service and FBI raided Gold & Silver Reserve's offices and took copies of documents and computer files. Now the US Justice Dept. is demanding that the company forfeit more than $800,000 in two of its bank accounts. |
