As defined in Regulation GG, Unlawful Internet Gambling means to “place, receive or otherwise knowingly transmit a bet or wager by any means which involves the use, at least in part, of the internet where such bet or wager is unlawful under any applicable Federal or State law in the State or Tribal lands in which the bet or wager is initiated, received or otherwise made.” These restricted transactions are prohibited from being processed through an account or banking relationship with the bank.
