    Russian gang suspected of scam in ICE market

    Very true, I found it odd that the Exchange went to the police. We will see how this one plays out. Judging by the numbers this could be a significant amount of revenue for them lost.

    Russian gang suspected of scam in ICE market

    Saw this in the FT this morning. This is all the market needs! I wonder if the broker had anything to do with it.
