The fact that it was so easy for the thieves to both steal the money, and "launder" it to another account will not help those poor Neteller founders recently arrested. While they can't be blamed for allowing the funding, surely they should have some sort of hold before a transfer can be made to another Neteller Member rather than a player's own casino account, where the money is at least safe unless the thieves gamble it away.
If the amount of these transactions is totally beyond the norm, their systems should have kicked in straight away, and if the money is still in the Neteller system they should be able to lock the receiving account and recover the money back to the original credit cards.

This occured less than 18 hours ago. I was able to close my bank account before money was taken out of my account..(instacash is not really immediately like they say)
Yes, these transactions are totoally out of norm. I've made hundreds of InstaCash deposits...and never have I made any deposits over $75...not once...and my deposits have always been whole dollars. These unauthorized transactions were all USD with change, but when transfered to another merchant, they all turn out to be whole numbers in Euros..hmm?
I'm surprised Neteller even allowed for them to attempt 5 unsuccessful credit card deposits, one minute after another.
