That way the bets will still be placed from a computer with an AUS IP address.

It's probably still illegal as the intent is still there.
If that is true then you shouldn't even email your selection to your friend in OZ to place a bet for you, as it's still over the net.

Regards to VPN just read on an other forum that a punter in Germany (he is from OZ) tried to connect directly to Luxbet and couldn't, but could by using a VPN, except his IP address was still recognised as being from a prohibited country when he tried to log in and was refused.

Don't know about the bookies or Betfair but Luxbet definitely picked him up.
