Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program
Our institution has elected to participate in the FDIC's Transaction Account Guarantee Program.
Under that program, through December 31, 2010, all non-interest bearing transaction accounts are fully guaranteed by the FDIC for the entire amount in the account. Coverage under the Transaction Account Guarantee Program is in addition to and separate from the coverage available under the FDIC's general deposit insurance rules.
Notice To Commercial Customers
The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) of 2006, signed into law in 2006, prohibits any person engaged in the business of betting or wagering (as defined in the ACT) from knowingly accepting payments in connection with the participation of another person in unlawful internet gambling. The Department of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board have issued a joint final rule, Regulation GG, to implement this Act.
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 in which the bet or wager is initiated, received or otherwise made."
As a customer of First Bank of Linden, these restricted transactions are prohibited from being processed through your account or banking relationship with us. If you do engage in an internet gambling business and open a new account with us, we will ask that you provide evidence of your legal capacity to do so.
