So your hypothesis is that scammers have somehow gained access to the email address
support@fulltiltpoker.com and also the user database of Full Tilt?
I know it's easy to send an email from a fake address, but I sent them my documents and got an email back. Just now I verified it was really fulltiltpoker.com and not fuIItiItpoker.com or anything by copy pasting the address into my web browser.
And like I said, I got the email to an address I've only used with full tilt. It's an address with a word and a string of numbers and an unusual email provider after the @ sign. The only way scammers could send a phishing email to it is by having direct access to the full tilt user database (where they would also see real names, usernames, etc).
I have a competing theory to your "scammer hypothesis": a poker site is employing incompetent people. Shocker, I know.
