From their site:
Hoax: A Necessary Evil
We apologize to all for any inconvenience that may have resulted by our recent hoax, however we found it necessary to perpetuate given the current state of online poker in the United States. We believe a much needed scrutiny is required of the recently passed Internet Gambling Enforcement Act. Not only does this bill violate the constitutional rights of US citizens but also facilitates the US government to unilaterally withhold funds of online poker players and make arrests of foreign payment processors. We strongly disapprove of the Internet Gambling Enforcement Act and actively encourage all our users to sign up with the Poker Players Alliance. For those users who were inquiring, PokerBandits.ca will be re-launched later this week.
Thank You
-PokerBandits Team
Or is it? Maybe the government is just trying to lure people back in so they can get their names and IP addresses. Nah!

Hi, my name is Bill Rini and this is my poker blog. I've been blogging about poker and the poker industry since around 2003-ish. Like most people I started out playing poker as entertainment in home games whenever we wanted to sit around and smoke cigars, drink beer, and eat pizza, and needed a good excuse. I started playing online shortly after the first online card rooms opened and it wasn't long before I was playing 20, 30, or even 40 hours a week or more. One day I received a phone call about a program manager position at Tiltware which was the company that consulted to Full Tilt Poker on software development and marketing. After Tiltware I spent about 2.5 years working at Party Poker where I was the poker room manager.
