23. Forfeiture, Account Closure and Confiscation
The Company reserves the right, in its unfettered discretion, to void any winnings and confiscate any balance in your Account (and any ESP account or Company related or affiliated account including any such account you may have with other websites and casinos owned or operated by the Company) in any of the following circumstances:
If the name on your Account registration does not match the name on the credit card(s) or other payment accounts used to make purchases at or deposits with us;
If you provide incorrect or misleading registration information;
We have also handled this matter with you directly via e-mail and live chat, but I will clear up any confusion for others reading this thread.
To be candid, this is an incredibly rare occurrence, yet entirely valid in your case. Your account was closed and the remaining balance ($10) confiscated for fraud. If US players are accepted in the future, I will make sure that this $10 is credited back to your poker account at that time.
We do not accept US customers at present, and you attempted to circumvent our filters by using fraudulent information; entering your country as the US Minor Outlying Islands, which was not blocked by Merge. When this was caught and it was verified that you were not playing from the US Minor Outlying Islands shortly after you began to play for real money, your account was immediately suspended.
Merge has now also blocked signups from US Minor Outlying Islands to avoid further cases like this. You have my apologies for the inconvenience caused here, but your account will not be re-opened at this time.
