Quaternion is his online poker SN not AIM SN.
The SNs do not matter as long as we are talking about teh same person.

No it isn't. I know my friends online screen name and it isn't Quaternion.

Just curious, where did you see NCIS in Egypt?
08-10-2010 , 02:02 PM
I have to admit that OP sounds sorta legit, in contrary to the guy in the Chinese DoN fraud thread.

That doesn't prove anything. You can download anything over the internet and the fact that he writes good english just proves that he's fluent. Find something else.

Here is a version that assumes OP is telling the truth and both he and Brodie has been lied to, tell me if it makes sense please:

-OP is an acquaintance of Quaternion-(known high stakes pro)
-OP has stars account "twatazoid" and FTP account "CursedbyaGypsy"
- He wants to play the FTOPS but can't deposit at FTP so he contacts Quaternion via AIM and asks him for a favor.

Quaternion AIM account is hacked and OP is talking to the hacker.
Hacker tries to scam OP for couple of hundreds,he asks him to send it to ‘Rosendito Aquino’ in the Philippines but it's not possible because Western Union is closed at the time.
But the hacker doesn't give up.
He contacts Brodie and is acting as Quaternion, makes up some kiddie story which comes down to:
Brodie recieves money at stars and is expected to send the money to ‘Rosendito Aquino’ in the Philippines.

Brodie knows he is talking to a hacker but he plays along in order to get more info on the hacker.
Then this happens:
(10:33:01 AM) QL: hey it came from "twatazoid"
(10:33:08 AM) QL: that's not what you said
(10:33:15 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: let me ask him one sec...
(10:33:36 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: ahh
(10:33:43 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: his ftp name is the one I gave you
(10:33:56 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: no biggie
(10:34:27 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: thats my stars name
my full tilt name is cursedbyagypsy

Brodie contacts FTP and FTP freezes the account "cursedbyagypsy"
Now, the bolded part is probably why Brodie thinks OP IS the hacker and why this thread is so confusing.


That's my take on this tell me if it makes sense.
I mean, if OP is the hacker how does this thread and the whole situation makes sense?

I think you have it perfectly with the exception that his friend isn't Quaternion but is someone who got 6th in an FTOPS whos AIM was hacked as well. IMO the scammer has multiple HS poker players AIM/Facebook/etc accounts hacked and is doing this to more than one person at a time.


OP FWIW I believe you, and think you were just gullible thinking your friend was wanting you to send some random person money. Next time just goto to one of the many transfer threads here or other forums and get someone to do it, you will have to send first but its probably a whole lot safer.

Richard Brodie can afford to take a dump through his $8000 pants so I doubt hes trying to steal your $270.

Its not aired here.

I just got back from Vegas with my wife about 3 weeks ago and it was the first time we saw it. We really liked it and bought a few DVDs from there, and got a few from here. We actually watched season 1-6 in these 3 weeks.

When I chose to commit hacker related crimes, I always chose Computer science Profs (Quaternion) and ex Microsoft Programmers ( Richard Brodie) as my victim's. These guys seem like good targets for hacking related crimes. WP OP, WP.

It seems to be a trend that cheaters and scammers start threads on 2+2 to try and get there online accounts unfrozen. I believe the whole chinese DoN cheating scandal was broke wide open after one of the cheaters started a thread and incriminated himself in the process.

I never even knew about these forums until a friend of mine I called yesterday told me to post this situation on a site called 2+2. I'm not a 'poker junkie'. I just watch the WSOP and WPT and play from time to time online. I play a lot live though.

I was gullible. And I feel so stupid at the moment. But I also feel more stupid for posting this on the forum as now everyone thinks I'm the scammer.

Anyway, I hope this issue gets resolved soon enough. I was actually dying to play some of the FTOPS events and now I can't. That's the most thing thats bothering me about this whole situation.

The real question is: Who the hell is Rosendito Aquino from the Philippines?

What's the story behind this Chinese Don guy?

I believe OP

Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, and the ghost of Howard Hughes once scammed me out of a box of Cracker Jacks. I told my mommy on them

Rosendito Aquino is probably some person (real or fictional as I think its pretty easy to transfer monies to 3rd world countries without showing ID) who will collect the money and send it to the scammer, or it is the scammer and he lives in Manila and is Rosendito Aquino or has a fake id.

You falsely accused someone of scamming you in a public forum, without any attempt at contacting him first, and the thing that's bothering you most is you can't play some FTOPS events?????

Did you not read the post? That scammer played it very well against me. And AGAIN this is the first time I encounter something like this. It was very scary and my confidence was hurt by the fact that I was cheated.

From my side of the story, everything was pointing towards Richard. How was I supposed to know? However, I also stated in my first post that it might not be him and I don't want to accuse him of any wrongdoing but I kind of had to.
08-10-2010 , 02:20 PM
LOL. OP, the scammer, gets pwned by Quiet Lion who is gathering evidence against him because he knows Quaternion's AIM account has been hacked.

OP thinks his scammed funds (which now rightly belong to him of course) are being re-scammed by QL because he won't western union them back.

OP starts a thread to accuse QL of stealing his scammed funds from him, being too stupid to realize that QL is gathering information on him in order to turn him over to the authorities (even though QL basically told him at the end of the posted chat what he was doing WTF?). When he realizes this, he back-peddles, apologizing to QL in the desperate hope that QL will stop in his criminal pursuit.

Five Stars. Well played Mr. Brodie.
08-10-2010 , 02:22 PM
this is some funny read. the funniest part is, 95% of people reading/replying doesnt even know what was going on. flip flop got it right with some help

OP apologized to QL

i think we are at the end of this thread.
08-10-2010 , 02:22 PM
It's possible OP is not stevedapimp, although I tend to think he is based on his aggressive, persistent manner. It's unlikely that the real victim would start this thread after getting his money back quickly along with a letter from PS support saying I did it voluntarily. And if you google p0kerm0n you will discover that it's possible, but not so easy, to connect that account name (which I only use on Pokerstars because Quiet Lion was taken) with me. In fact the only hit for p0kerm0n kirkland is this thread. And it's kind of amusing that someone named Mohammed would think there's something suspicious about two people having the same first name.

The hacker is likely stevedapimp, since before the transaction yesterday he attempted to get me to wire money to West Virginia. This is the log from July 17, 2010:

(9:12:21 AM) QL: ah
(9:12:37 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: Only reason I asked you
(9:22:07 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: Are you gonna be able to help me ?
(9:23:26 AM) QL: I haven't received the ftp transfer yet
(9:23:33 AM) QL: when did you make it?
(9:24:03 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: Richard I said I would send when I got home
(9:24:09 AM) QL: ok let me know
(9:24:24 AM) QL: sometimes they take awhile
(9:24:29 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: You don't trust me for 500$ my small blind is more than that
(9:24:43 AM) QL: haha
(9:24:51 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: My friend only has 30 min would appreciate if you could go now
(9:24:56 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: You act like I would steal
(9:35:03 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: Real classy
(9:35:51 AM) QL: I'm sorry you jumped to conclusions
(9:35:53 AM) QL: have a nice day
(9:36:10 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: Really Richard?

(9:37:56 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: Your a classless arrogant jerk
(9:38:01 AM) Hacked Quaternion account: You're

To me, the tone sounds the same in OP's posts and the hacker's chat. But I'm willing to be wrong.
