From today's CAP Newswire:

Futurebet operation believed to have owed players

September 10, 2008 (InfoPowa News) -- In trouble since at least August of 2007, USDBet.com appears to have finally bitten the dust, with visitors to the website redirected to the Yahoo.com portal for some weeks and an unknown number of players still awaiting payment.

The Futurebet-powered operation told respected sportsbook portal Sports Book Review less than three months ago that it was now under new (but unspecified) management, had taken over its own processing but was using the same software.

Manager "James" told SBR: "We are paying out all pending withdrawals, so please redirect players who have contacted you with withdrawal problems to this mailing address: mail@usdbet.com." Unfortunately, this appears to be of little use, as emails sent to that address are reportedly ignored.
