All that glitters is not e-gold

e-gold has been around for the longest time, since the 1990’s in fact, and was a pioneer in the field of online monetary transfer. It works in a stunningly different way to any other such service then or now, as far as I am aware, in that it transfers ownership of gold bars, or tiny bits of them at least, between the accounts of people wanting to move money around safely online. These non-reversible, all transactions are final, no questions asked transfers are immediate and hugely popular. Unfortunately, it appears that they might be hugely popular with the wrong kind of customer.
