New parttimepoker account

I had a problem with him before a looooong time ago, not even sure if it was on 2+2, was supposed to play 25nl and was found playing other games. Had the same promises of paying back but never did.

bigdu50 has fans in the ***HU SNG REGS THREAD***



also has a dormant 2+2 account

Multi-accounter, alleged 2-time scammer, both 2+2 accounts now banned.

ugh, bought a $30 amazon code from him. I sent to limes9 on stars, so consider this another one of his accounts.

POKERSTARS told me the id: he sent the money from was razy69

all i know is this is why i dont trust people all the time.... damn

well i hope nobody else gets scammed... BUYERS BEWARE!

Against all the rules and guidelines set out in the GiftCard Thread you traded with ANOTHER March, 2011 account.

It might be time to start banning some victims from trading for their own protection.

he sent first and i had 4 succesfull trades before that... no matter join date. look at my join date and i have 10 succesfull trades... watever it is what it is

The point is that even with the new account sending first, there are still ways to scam.

i know that know... consider it a costly lesson learned

Also there's the possibility that it's fraudulent funds being sent and Stars has to get their money back somehow. Example: Scammer makes a e-check deposit and doesn't have said money in his account (these take a few days to clear with your bank). Scammer comes to 2p2 and finds someone to scam for his stars/FT money. He sends first which re-assures OP and then account is locked and funds possibly seized. Now I'm not trying to sound like I'm on a high horse cause I got burnt bad back in August to a new account and didn't do some simple homework and could've avoided the situation. But I'd rather sound semi-douchy and help than to sit by silently and let it keep happening.

Thanks bro.... pokerstars is being very informative and we are going thru the investigation process.... i just want them to know im telling the truth... the money is a lost cause im sure.

2+2: MF6 (banned)

Is or is related to following accounts, has identified himself as several of them, and likely used all of them at some point:

FT:
Epiphany86
89ofspadesMF
DJ FITT

Stars:

mfitterer1

AIM was or is mfitterer6.

Problems with two backers on site. Was unwilling to have histories reviewed with first backer SS-TP despite large discrepancy in reported results, not resolved. Second case BigNate904 would not turn over HHs and made impossible to continue stake. Worked out partial repayment plan in second case but refuses unless reinstated in marketplace & other impossible demands, not resolved.

See posts 938-958 above, and the following thread here: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/13...te904-1006283/

History of questionable offsite problems that aren't necessary to detail here tracing to names/identities listed above. Is permanently banned from 2+2 and not recommended as someone to do business with.

Thanks for the good work Gonso. I appreciate you guys keeping the MP as clean as possible from scumbags like Michael Fitterer.

Seconded. Especially when he tries to make the mods out to be the bad guys.

Also since I forgot to mention that you should also link the thread in which you sold the stuff and if possible show the pm's. Also I'm not 100 percent, maybe a mod can confirm, but if it's a significant amount of money a mod can also email stars to verify that what you're saying is true.

Another thing I also forgot to mention is to be wary of anyone that pm's you instead of posting in a thread with details sort of like "Hey killer, I got this 50 dollar card. I can do stars or tilt are you interested? Pm sent." Usually people just pm when they're scamming as to sort of fly under the radar and it's sometimes harder to prove (not always the case but still). Also one thing that happened to me was having people pm me asking for an old WTB:GC thread. Just little things like this can help get rid of scumbags.

Finally to not keep derailing this thread. Honestly all the MP mods do a really great job and there's also regular posters who help too. RW was one of those b4 they made him mod. The fact of the matter is, Gonso can't do it alone nor can Bobbo, Suigan, GT or Marcus. It takes the effort of all of them and us as posters reporting sketchy posts and doing our part too. See a poster with a new join date and all his posts are in the MP or xfer threads, go ahead and report it and give the mods a chance to check it out. If it's nothing, then no harm no foul. But you could save someone a lot of money and possibly yourself.

Sorry if this is a derail at all guys.

This is not a derail. ^^ It is solid advice.

It's painful to think of the number of times a scammer has succeeded and we soon get posts and PMs saying:
"Oh yeah - he was PMing me, wouldn't post, kept trying to get me to send first."

It's common to ban a new account scammer and see that he has 20 posts and 300 PMs sent ... and not 1 of them reported to us.

Do not hesitate to FORWARD suspicious PMs to 2 or 3 forum mods.
"No harm, no foul"

Luis informed me that he needed to end the stake early. I requested him to send back the amount I had invested in him. He said he would on March 6th. I haven't heard from him since. If you would like any other information about this player feel free to PM me.

2+2: marguzz22
888 poker: marcothev


firstly pm'd me about a stake without posting his sn's in my staking thread,after i wrote him that this is a must do before we could talk more about a staking he posted his 888 poker sn in my thread.

after that we talked a little bit over skype,and i asked him if he could showe me his graph which he send in the pm,he said that he just must log into his other computer..

he goes off,and didn't come on again until now (around a hour)

i googled a little bit with infos he gave me,and found this thread

http://foorum.pokkeriprod.com/showth...arguzz22-stake

used google translator,but it seem's that he rolled another staker for $240



not sure if this is against the rules,because he didn't scame me,but whole story seems pretty weird,and imo it's a high probability that he pm'd other stakers on 2+2 also..

I took the time to read the messy translater version of the 10 page thread on this stake (Google cant you get it better?). It appears they entered a $500 stake and it was claimed the money was lost in days. Then something about him being in the psychiatric hospital, but he showed play on the account. He agreed to pay stake back, then never did, but was found to be playing cash games on multiple tables. Somehow his brother figures prominently in all this. The tenor of the thread is that marguzz22 is a scammer and liar. Of course, as many scammers do, marguzz22 makes legal threats.

1 1/2 months after thread starts there is a payback of $140 of the $430 the staker is demanding back. The next day the thread ends, it is possbile full payment was received, but hard to tell from translation.

Thread starts September 19 2010, and ends November 2 2010 with either a partial or full payback.

Maybe someone from Estonia can give better translation

The below 2+2er has scammed me for $400,said he had problems last few days,had to draw MY money out etc etc ,what ever ,I don't believe him anyway,info below .............

He has said he will pay me back in 2 weeks,see it to believe it,if he does i will update here.

^^You're not suppose to post details like that unless a mod approves it. Mainly the phone number and address. Especially if the guy said he'd pay back in 2 week and (i'm assuming) it's not past that point.

Removed the details for now.

Where does this BS come from?

Shawn Hall, of Pullman WA , WSU student? is a scammer
Full Tilt: christanhalfman, homerowed
2+2: tr0gd0r TableShark

pokertableshark@gmail.com
trogdorr@gmail.com found here

Shawn Hall, of Pullman WA scammed me out of a $500 amazon gc the GC sub forum. He was using the 2p2 name tr0gd0r. After he received the code, he shut off his PMs on 2p2. When he came back 1/2 a day later, he told me his account was locked for verification., yet was continuing to trade in marketplace.

Apparently he was making (semi) legit trades when he had to send first and walking off with the money when he didnt.
He took $30 and $50 off of 2 other 2+2ers.

He sent Rainbow Warrior a PM copy of FT e-mails showing he had 3 APPROVED transfers of $500, $30 and $50.
After sending mine to FT they responded:
Since then, he has reappeared on 2p2 as TableShark and made several trades where he sent first. However, it seems likely based on this thread
that the majority of the trades he has been completing have been with fraudulent funds.

His name is Shawn Hall and he lives in Pullman, Washington (likely on Providence Ct) near WSU.
I am specifying this because he has made several purchases in the past that needed to be shipped to him, so this information would be key to identifying him if he creates another 2p2 account and tries to order things again.
