Kahnawake Nation Under Scrutiny

June 5, 2008

The Kahnawake Nation has come under some fierce scrutiny these past few days after it was discovered that they have had their second security breach in less than a year. The site UltimateBet.com is the second site to have fallen prey to those that wish to do things the illegal way.

Initially it was the online gambling site Absolute Poker who was the talk of the town. There was an investigation and it was discovered that the site had been a victim to former employees of the site that stole from those playing on the site. The online casino discovered that they had changed the online gambling software and could see the other players� hands while they were playing.

Now it seems that the same thing has happened to UltimateBet.com. The online gambling site had the same thing happen � and many are saying that it isn�t coincidence that led these two online gambling sites to experience the same problem.

Both sites were under the ownership of Tokwiro Enterprises, but the employees had worked for the previous owners. The company that now owns them is headed up by former Grand Chief Joe Norton of the Kahnawake Nation.

Now many are wondering how safe the monitoring can be through the Kahnawake nation, and some think that perhaps they should be investigated as well. There are even rumblings of this putting an end to the option, but many experts say that this is not the case and that this is purely speculation.
