Additional funds were reportedly seized in an investigation by the U.S. District Court in Maryland related to online gambling. Funds totaling $1.55 million were brought in from a payment processing company called HMD, Inc.

The next step in the process, according to Maryland U.S. Attorney's Office spokeswoman Marcia Murphy, is that "civil forfeiture proceedings would be started" to allow the government to keep the seized funds.

Late last year, the Maryland office went after the popular Golden Palace online casino. Coordinated efforts were established between Maryland and the Louisiana State Police along with the U.S. Customs Office as first reported by Gambling911.com.

In 2008, the U.S. Attorney's Office out of Maryland seized funds belonging to Bodog.com through the interception of another payment processor.
