2eazy, you still live in Canada? I wonder if Scott is scared to go back to the US?
The morale of the story is sites like Everest should be cheating like no tomorrow. Super users, rig the cards for fish, rig the deck for personal accounts, you name it they should be doing it because clearly there are no repercussions.

Just for the record, the "interviewer" is Susan Reisler, former CBC anchor.
She is a Vice-President of Media Profile, a Public Relations firm.
This wasn't an interview by a journalist, it was a scripted press release by a PR firm.

Re: Absolute Poker -- PotRipper Backstory Fully Exposed
I would lay 100 to 1 that they never comment, they are trying to put everything past them by refusing to answer to the public. And its working... thats the sad part

I know you've followed this one a lot so the last thing I want to do is argue on AP's side for this
Couldn't the 'blacklist user' showing in the withdrawal screenshot be them stopping the transactions? You'd probably know the time line better of course, but it looked to me like it could have been stopped before funds left the site.

Re: Absolute Poker -- PotRipper Backstory Fully Exposed
Mook, how did they get a hold of you to threaten you?
It boggles my mind that criminals can use lawyers as their bullies......

Haley knows more about the AP scandal than I do, but I know some of it pretty well, and have also received some good gossip on AP, but nothing worth running with yet or posting, but interesting. Haley has done a great job on this, even at Pokernews, and she is the one who knows the answer to you question, but a bit taken from her blog....... (He did the same thing with other accounts as well.) By then, of course, the vast majority of cheated monies had been siphoned off the site.

It was last summer, I received an email about posting something on scribd. I just re-posted an excellent blog from Nat Arem about AP, Scott Tom, and an IP Address. I just chose to take it down.
I am eager to see what else Haley has to write about. I am also not holding my breath for Paul Leggett, Tokwiro, Seif, or anyone to comment on this anymore
