Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Florida announced that Ironman had agreed to forfeit over $2.7 million in lottery proceeds to the government after the company illegally charged athletes to enter into a lottery for a chance to compete in the Ironman competition in Hawaii. As for the DOJ and FBI probe, a prominent Florida attorney who has represented many gaming clients said one need look no further than the case against the World Triathlon Corporation (Ironman) to understand the potential impact of a federal inquiry.
