    Correct.
    FBI seized it and arrested owners last night - charges included money laundering and prostitution over state lines.

    Don't know about the money laundering, but technically they're right about the prostitution.

    Eros, Backpage, and Craigslist might suffer the same fate eventually...

    I dont think they got shut down. I think they got hacked. I doubt the FBI would really put up a page like that.

    Did you read the article?

    They did the same thing when they seized all of those poker sites a few years back.


    How am I not myself?

    They got shut down. It was in the news.
    Generally if I post something as fact and not opinion, I've checked it for a source.

    very much fact as Steven noted, when there are scribe links of the actual indictment in the articles someone is in serious trouble.

    When someone doesn't share with the IRS large amounts of money, the IRS does get fussy.

    Well this just sucks. I found out about myredbook one month ago. Didn't get a chance to use the service. I seen a few listings. But now they make it harder to look for local escort. At least backpage and eros still up.
