You are obviously clueless to the business world. Stox is the bitch here not the scammed individuals. They had the opportunity to flip this situation into a positive for the company and they failed to do so. Their company, either directly or indirectly led these individuals into a scam AND they admitted that they didn't do a proper background check thus providing an opportunity to a crook. Its embarrassing.
They admit being the cause of the problem, take 100% responsibility with words and then fail to compensate these individuals 100% on their losses. This is not how a good business is ran.
These people (Stox/CR) are making a ton of money off poker players of all stakes in a business that can be debated as a complete scam & when their company is found to be in the middle of a huge sub-scam they act as if they are only responsible for a portion of the losses. Its a joke. Step up and grow some balls Stox. Take the hit to your pockets in return for a positive boost for the company. It can only work out in your favor in the long run. Isn't that a concept that you people understand as poker coaches? How can you not realize that you're hurting your company by not refunding these people 100%. I for one will never use your service solely based on the outcome of this situation.
Man up and take the hit. Make good on all losses & move forward with a new found respect for doing the right thing. Otherwise I stick to my initial thought. Embarrassing.
Is there any kind of "Buyer Beware" clause listed on Stox/CR? If their is that should have been a redflag before even signing up, that is nothing but a simple cop out to protect their internal scam & that is what has been put forth as part of the solution. It should not matter how gullible or naive these people were especially when dealing with a "game" that changes constantly and works on different levels. To expect someone to realize they are being scammed within 2-3 sessions of learning new material is absurd.
They came to YOU for help and used someone YOU employ and YOUR lack of research on the individual YOU were endorsing cost THEM money. PERIOD. YOU are the cause here, man up and be the ****ing solution as well. This repayment of the first 2 sessions and 50% of the third is truly embarrassing & anyone directly involved should be ashamed. Just do the right thing. Why is that so difficult now days?
