Gambling911.com has been following this story closely and was the first to reveal last week that one of the companies, BinaryOption, had been taken offline within 24 hours of the Daily Mail reporting on the alleged improprieties.

The Reuters Investigation goes even more in depth and a most fascinated read that can be found here.
