This guy was mentioned here in this thread before and the characteristics are the same.
I'm another victim of Jake 'Gamblor288' Lebour here. This time on Partypoker, he used another nickname, TinmanHeartless, played for a while, and winning, I watched him play and he was not a bad player. A good player with maybe just some anger issues. At one point he did mention that he was Gamblor288 on Pokerstars, but I only sharkscoped it, if I had googled it I would've probably found this. He send me an ID, with a name Ali Al, address in London, Ontario, but it's a stolen ID and not really him. Looking back at the conversation now I can point out where I should've known and suspected, but he was pretty good at what he does. I was mostly fooled because he was a decent player. I would expect a worse player to risk his reputation with a scam. His home town on Skype was London, Canada in this case also. skypename: wizk1dd7012.
We talked a lot, and he had made up a facebook account with a lot of information too, about this Ali Al, and pictures too. He seemed to know Canada pretty well, doesn't have a foreign accent and it is certainly North American, so I would also say that Canada is the true location. He also claimed to be studying Business Finance at Toronto University. Obviously all of this can be fake too, but who knows, maybe somebody knows him.
His last words:
Ali: I'm sorry I degen'd all your money away on roulette and then tried to scam someone else to pay you back and I stole this persons ID I'm not actually Ali al , I'm a long time scammer named jake lebour you can search me , Ali al has nothing to do with this and my account is now banned and everything is gone bye now sorry I did this , I don't know what to do
What a gentleman in the end lol. I hope that someone while getting asked by him finds this thread and will be smarter than me and finds a way to counter-scam or bust him. A cancer in mankind.
