People deserve 2nd chances. If you want to keep a tally on your back end that is fine. Once an issue is resolved I don't see why it isn't left up to the original person that posted it whether they want to keep it up or not. There should be an option to delete the post so mistakes made by kids in their early 20s don't follow them around their whole lives after they make things right. Some of the things done are not egregious but judgement errors that stakers can warn other stakers to currently not do business with this individual. Every situation is different and there are tons of situations way worse than most the stuff posted on here that gets resolved that the public will never know about.

I don't see how this contradicts my post. What I mentioned in my post shouldn't entail anything following someone around their whole lives - when all we leave is the person's 2+2/poker site screen names, a summary of what happened, and the resolution, how will that affect them outside of poker? The idea is to allow that much to remain so that:

I think it's perfectly reasonable to have the most basic information available for future stakers. If the situation is resolved, it should be explained easily enough to anyone they're seeking a stake from. I'd think the person should be disclosing this information to potential stakers anyway.

Likely true. But I'm not sure how that's relevant to what we should or shouldn't do here.

The problem is that you get stakers who throw people's names up not to warn anyone, but simply to get their money back. True scammers agree to pay back quickly so they can get their name taken down, and move on to the next scam.

Vinicius played live for us at the BSOP in October 2018. He did not return all funds from this. We had to catch this, he did not admit it. After we confronted him, he said he kept $1,942 for personal reasons. We chose to give Vinicius one more chance.

Doing a routine audit this past week we noticed he was playing spin n go's and 8-Game cash games with stake funds that were not permitted.

We told Vinicius that we could no longer back him and asked for a repayment plan for the $16k in makeup he accrued.

Vinicius offered a $25/mo repayment plan which we have rejected.
Vinicius has repaid an amount we agreed on. We consider this debt cleared.

We have strong reason to believe that these 2 people are connected and worked together to defraud us, which is why we're posting them together.

We started working with Juan Cruz Botet on September 20, 2023. Upon recent review we realized that Juan fabricated all of the documents, screenshots and hand histories over the last 2 months. Which we unfortunately missed.

We attempted to start working with Alan Julian Rodrigues on October 13, 2023. As part of the onboarding process we received documentation that was clearly altered and photoshopped.

The reason we think that Juan Cruz Botet and Alan Julian Rodrigues are connected is that Juan Cruz Botet sent funds to Alan Julian Rodrigues (we were able to verify this via a 3rd party).

Juan Cruz Botet owes us $5,625.42

We would strongly discourage anyone from working with either of them as they are likely to cheat and scam you.

i had a deal with gustavo to swap $600 in usdt for pokerstars funds. i sent the money first last friday and haven't heard anything from him since.
i contacted him via email, whatsapp, discord but no response. he even blocked me on whatsapp but cant be 100% certain that the number is still connected to him.
we think he might have played for standard backing a few years ago - would highly appreciate it if some of you guys from SB could check about him.

please let me know if you have any information about him. thanks
Hello.
I recently learned about this post through a friend.
Over the course of this year (23), as far as I know, my discord account was hacked and deleted.
At the time, after some unsuccessful attempts to access the account, I can remember even 2FA was enabled (and not by me), I ended up frustrated and lost interest in using the software.
Right now, trying to log in, it seems to have been deleted.
What I can say is that the event described is a misfortune and that I had no involvment in the case.
I will be in touch with support and forum team.
And, guys, if I may: do not send money to people you don't know aswell as analyze reputations and references before making any exchange.

On October 27, we signed an exclusive contract with Shawn Herald that covered ALL his poker play and sent him funds on October 31.

Later on October 31st Shawn Herald registered a tournament and won $797 on November 1st. A few days later he asked us for a reload as he'd lost the initial transfer.

Upon reviewing his playing history we discovered that he'd won this $797 and asked why he didn't claim a profit chop. He claimed that he had played the tournament with a ticket that was still in his account before he signed the contract with us and as a result he would not share the winnings.

We asked him to return the initial transfer - he claimed that this was an unexpected expense and said he would do so on November 17 as he only had $72 in his account. We asked him to send the $72 and the remainder on November 17.

Shawn Herald failed to send the $72 or anything on November 17. However in that timeframe he did manage to deposit more funds onto a poker site and lose them.

Shawn Herald owes us $500

We strongly discourage anyone from working or trusting Shawn Herald from Stephentown, NY.

Some more details would be helpful, and I'd encourage you to look over them very carefully - this account has been imitated many, many times. Where were you contacted, and are you sure you that was the exact account name that was used? I don't recall what the impersonator uses, but often it's a case of subbing in a number for a letter (1 or l for I, for instance) or something else that isn't noticed when looking quickly.

Coached for an hour or two, sent $250 to stake him, then the entire banking system fell apart, didnt recieve codes, codes wasnt working, support didnt answer, then they didnt answer good enough then 400 other things. I am pretty sure he is trying to pretend to be someone he isnt, as he would offer to send passport early on (i didnt ask) and then refused to show it holding it next to himself. However thats just speculation, he did grind on stars the two following days where my money was "locked" (he has "proof" of everything prepared, almost like he knows hell need it, and its obv not proof of ****.).

Got berated beyond imagination after each time he went off calling me a "brokie" a bitch a pussy this that the other he apologised prefusely 3 times only to do the exact same thing again. At the end i got paid 207$ of my 240 something $ and him saying "happy this got resolved", which obviously it wasnt, but i write of the last $40 because he thinks ill not share this negative experience and be a happy camper if he pays me back (rofl) so he can continue ****ing with people/scamming them but unlike for this degen a hundred bucks is not worth the energy ive wasted on this let alone completely forgetting about things like morals, human decency or you know, anything someone with more than 5 iq would sometimes consider.

He has extreme anger issues and provides a "reference" that laughs and hangs up when called, then doesnt answer the phone again and he says only if i can promise to stake him (would rather stab myself than deal with this person again) i can talk to his reference. You do the math. done putting energy in to this waste of space so anyone who wants to stake him and needs more proof of this guy being mentally unstable feel free to reach out.

I didnt do any due dillgence because i am naive and think people are not willing to go through such lengths for pennies, but they are, so i warn anyone from doing any sort of deals with him, he is at best mentally unstable.

He has a thread looking for staking here:
https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/1...aking-1829343/
Here (will probably get locked) he was playing during the days my money was "locked".
https://gyazo.com/5f073472f25eac50033e938125bd5b04


And in case theres any question why i just block him and forget, its impossible to have a simple conversation/ask questions without being told how ****ing stupid your are, so ill show the last part of our conversation and thats it. He was trying to get me to send more as he could get the money within 2h anyways, so weird how it changed to 24h then took 2 days and i wasnt fully reimbursed, whilst he is playing stars at the same time.



He is currently providing a live showing of his communication skills in my thread, thats my part done and dusted. Stake on your own risk, i dont think he is even looking to be staked but "run it up" and you will have to be stronger than a navy seal mentally to handle talking to him, gl!

To put it simply - OHChariot sent me $250 to my crypto exchange to then move to ACR, however, when you move the money from the exchange to an external wallet you MUST complete 2FA (2 factor authentication, which requires you input one verification code sent to you through SMS and one through google authenticator) in order for the transfer to be processed - the difficulty I ran into was that the code being provided by my google authenticator was not being validated by the external wallet (crypto.com app). Every time I input the code it would come back as an INVALID CODE. The issue with this is that 2 factor authentication MUST be completed in order for funds to be moved from the exchange to an external wallet i.e ACR otherwise the funds are essentially stuck on the exchange until the technical support team figure out why this issue is occuring…

This was proved to OHChariot COUNTLESS TIMES - I sent video proof of this issue happening in real time, I sent my chat with support, I sent picture proof of the update support provided to me etc - I WAS FULLY TRANSPARENT AND APOLOGETIC FROM THE GET GO - and yes, I understood fully how this must have felt for OHChariot - I empathised with him and tried to reassure him that I would get this issue resolved promptly. Support outlined that they had a 2hr estimated time frame to get back to people, but this was exceeded by almost 24hrs which wasnt my fault (I also sent proof of this) but as soon as I got correspondence OHChariot was notified immediately. All of this information he continues to say was fabricated, even though I sent him the images/video proof in real time (from my phone) and told him to cross reference the time in the top right hand corner of the image to prove that I had just taken the image.

Once the technical issue was finally resolved (I had to reset my 2FA through the application, delete and reinstall the google authenticator) OHChariot was immediately updated and his funds were sent back to him as requested. He sent a total of $250 and I showed proof that I sent back $234 (as displayed in the same pictures I sent to him below (on discord):








We discussed the small discrepancy between the original amount sent and the amount that was supposed to have been returned and he was fully aware that some minor fees were involved (which he said was fine with - anyone that deals with crypto knows that small fees are STANDARD when youre sending to and fro) - HOWEVER, why there is $40 missing baffles me as much as it does him. The image above clearly shows the withdrawn amount totalling 0.0056137 BTC > $235, so there should only be a loss of $15, not the amount he has outlined. Now thats not me saying he is lying for one second - maybe there were some heavier fees involved, but why hes failing to recognise this is confusing.

IF I WAS SCAMMING HIM;

- his money would have been moved from my crypto wallet to my bank and I would have ghosted him? I showed him proof that his money was stuck on the exchange throughout the entire process up until his money was eventually returned (I made it clear to check the time in the corner of the picture to cross reference it with the time I was messaging him so he knew these pictures were sent in real time).

- I would have ceased all communication with him.

- I wouldnt have updated him at every twist and turn and sent proof to back up what I was saying.

The backlash and upset stemmed from the fact that A) OHChariot pulled out of the stake without me proving that the issue would be resolved and then once completed, moving the money to ACR as originally intended and continuing as normal. B) He made continuous hints at the fact that I could be a scammer when I proved to him otherwise. NO ONE likes to be accused of something theyre not - ive been in 2 other backing deals and NEVER had an issue with funds being sent between both parties, and this was in the thousands. I understood his concern from the jump, but did everything in my power to reassure him that he was assuming wasnt the case.

OhChariot then direct messaged me after having received his money back asking for passport proof - I was more than happy to send this to him (prior to him pulling out of the stake) but we got lost in the confusion of the issue and he eventually pulled out of the agreement so didn't see the need to then send identity proof. As for why my reference chose to hang up - no idea (maybe because my previous backer received a call from a number he didn't recognise and thought it was a scam call which is something a lot of UK residents experience)...baring in mind he tried to contact my reference after having pulled out of the agreement which makes no sense. If he chose to continue with the staking agreement I would have reached out to my backer and informed him that OhChariot was trying to get in touch with him.

Also - OHChariot outlined he coached me for 1-2 hours, (it was actually around 30-40mins) were he asked me a few questions about what id do in x and y spot and sent GTO Wizard screenshots to backup the information he was providing - he insisted on this prior to the stake starting, so i'm not sure why he's posted it like it was an issue.

After having pulled out of the agreement and saying he wasn't willing to stake me - I decided to play with my own funds on stars - only God knows why OhChariot see's this as an issue? He asked if I had funds why didn't I just send him his money back whilst all of this nonsense was going on - I had no way to, I asked OHChariot if he had PayPal as a means of getting money sent between us to put onto pokerstars before this mishap happened but he said he didn't and that he would download and set it up soon...he only notified me that he had his paypal set up AFTER his funds were sent back to him through the crypto exchange. If he notified me whilst this was going on then I would have had zero issue sending him his money back through paypal. He also lives in sweden, so I couldn't bank transfer - he also said he uses skrill, but I dont.

Yes, I admit, I could have handled this situation differently in regards to my outbursts - but I was infuriated that OHChariot was still adamant that he was going to post me even though I proved to him I wasnt scamming and sent the above amount back (see picture above) to him as soon as the issue was resolved. Like, for what reason? The matter was resolved in two days, he had all the proof necessary to reassure him and he STILL proceeds to try and tarnish me? I just dont get it.

PICTURE OF THE ISSUE I WAS FACING - I was receiving the code in real time, but when putting it into the app it was saying the code was invalid.



EXCHANGE BETWEEN MYSELF AND SUPPORT -







- - - - - -

Unfortunately im unable to provide video proof of the issue I was facing because you can't post videos to twoplustwo, but if anyone wants it feel free to ask and I can email it to you no problem.

- - - - - -

After me saying id pay him back the $40 (even though theres proof that I sent $235), he still proceeds to ignore all the facts of this matter and post me because he got into a hissy fit over the exchange of some heated words. Anyone with a thinking mind can clearly see I gave him enough reassurance, his funds were always on the exchange (until the issue was resolved), I not once ignored, blocked or removed OHChariot so he was unable to contact me throughout the entirety of this process etc etc.

The guy is clearly in his feels because I called him a brokie after he labelled me as a scammer. Im just as much done with this as is he.

Aww, you got cussed a little. Man up and deal with it. Only God knows why you're going on and on and on and on about the same thing? Its boring now mate, you've made your point. Get on with your life and leave people to make up their own mind about the situation ffs.

I changed back? Mate you do realise if I wanted to go into hiding like Bin Laden (over a scam I didn't commit) I could just delete my discord account (which im not going to do) as i'm not in the wrong. Use that supposed brain you have please.

As time has gone on Ronnie has very often played games he was not allowed, in aggregate totaling tens of thousands of dollars.

After many warnings and repeatedly broken promises by Ronnie to only play games he was allowed, Ronnie has accumulated a lot of makeup along with loans that we extended to help him through his downswing - on the condition he follow his limits (a condition he decided to ignore).

This is not Shane. Shane doesn't use Zoom at all. There has been a person that for years has been scamming people impersonating Shane and using the name lmawhale26 usually with a lower case L instead of an I. We've contacted Skype (he usually tries to scam on Skype) to report it many times but they won't do anything. It looks like now he may also be scamming on Zoom.

I was contacted by somebody named Shane Sigsbee on Skype (I misspoke and said Zoom. Too many Zoom work meetings...) The account claimed to be imawhale26 from 2+2. Personally, I stake a few players and am always trading cryto so we had a handful of conversations regarding such. He continually tried to get me to swap with him (Venmo for BTC) where I sent first. Eventually I sent him $100 on Venmo and he instantly blocked me. Obviously I should have cross referenced with imawhale26 here, which was my mistake.

Venmo's fraud service is terrible so I doubt there is any way I get the money back. Unless somebody knows how? Thankfully it was just $100 and I learned (reinforced) a valuable lesson that there's always going to be low life people out there with poor character who perceive scamming people as the easiest way to support themselves or save them from whatever hole they're in. Never send first unless you really know somebody. Purpose for posting is just wanted to make people aware in case this person contacts others.

We started working with Tony in September 2023. Right from the start he was incabable of sticking to the rules. He played games he was not authorised for and he refused to accept to split profits according to the contract he had signed with us. Eventually, after a rough month, he ghosted us while being in makeup.

Strongly not recommended to do business with him.
