lolololol.

If I decide to ship 100 bucks to mccormick, it doesn't matter if he pays me 1 dollar, or 200, or nothing at all. Lock owed me 100, and now they owe it to him. Their liabilites are exactly the same, but now "the problem is huge" --> cashouts are on lockdown while we investigate. wtf

I was hoping to get the full explanation before posting instead of posting the vague information I was sharing with Mccormick. That hasn't come through yet so just wanted to confirm what he posted above.

I have confirmed this morning that this does not mean players who have received transfers will bever be able to cashout.

Im still waiting to hear how it will work exactly, as soon as I have that information I will come back in here with it.

And security have reiterated that any players with questions can direct these directly to the security team at security@lockpoker.eu

To be fair, you do realise poker sites are very often used to launder money, aswell as other abuse and weird quirks that could pop up when situations get created where money is traded on forums for 0.5$ per 1$ etc?

I'm obviously NOT saying they haven't created this situation theirselves, but that doesn't take away from my point in any way, it's still a reality that now abuse can very easily take place.
04-28-2013 , 07:29 AM
How could anybody launder money? They'd never be able to cash out.

Money laundering, lol.
04-28-2013 , 07:34 AM
You clearly didn't follow all of this, did you. Affiliate accounts / people who for some reason got faster cashouts etc.

That being said, your point is still valid for a good part: then why did all these other people without faster cashouts get their withdrawal cancelled aswell is also beyond me.

Shane didn't mention anything about concern about laundering money, not sure how that would work anyway when cashouts are so slow and unreliable.

What weird quirks are you talking about?

He didn't say anything about it, it's something i'm saying just to show an example of how and why abuse could take place. Are people really this dense?

As said above and as said before by Shane, some people DID get faster cashouts, so there lies the problem.

Anyways, i'm not the Lock rep, when people start pointing these questions to me, i'm clearly doing something wrong, so that'll likely be it for me. Ask Shane, ask the security e-mail he gave you, whatever.

Im transferring everyone in this thread a dollar

playthrough requirements/wagering reqs and not being able to withdraw after receiving a transfer are two completely separate situations. And for support to so call "mess up" on relaying the message is pretty huge. Obviously I feel that if it was a big mistake like Shane claims, a normal company would follow through with another email to everyone with a public apology and the "mis-wording" clarifying the situation. No? I'm not trying to grill the messenger, just stating the obvious.

Yeah.. I really love this one. Can people please post if they DID transfer and did NOT get their withdrawal cancelled? I'm one of them, but i'd like to know if there's more of you out there.

Also, to goofballs like SenorKeeed, i'm only here to try help investigate and help others, since my withdrawal wasn't even cancelled, if you want i can just leave it be, got nothing to gain here so far anyway, infact the opposit if people apparantly will go out of their way to once again bash me.

i guess if my withdrawals arent allowed till the end of next week, best line is to get lawyer involved? i dont see why i should allow lock to effectively steal that much money from me without even pretending to have a logic behind it
04-28-2013 , 10:22 AM
So If I am correct, it sounds as if we transfer to another player and he requests a WU withdrawal it should be ok(ok as in still taking 5 months). Is it still only affecting Skrill??
04-28-2013 , 10:24 AM
What the **** ?!!?!?!

They deleted my original post with the email i received from donkey Steven at Security.
04-28-2013 , 10:27 AM
We should probably be posting in the Internet Poker forum, where the Lock Minister of Propaganda can't delete what we write at will.

Shane I do not think you understand, well really anything when it comes to business or not being scum. How can Lock punish players for doing something that was not against the rule at the time, of course you do not make this so called new rule public either. Us players have to find out on our own once again. You should be thanking these players because if it wasnt for these players buying funds, you would not have any players playing on the site whatsoever since it is very clear you do not want to pay people out in any reasonable timely matter if at all.
