Just watched as he used my $220 to play in $110 head up match and donk off MY money.

I feel so stupid for being such a trustful person, I should of seen this coming.

Now I need to make up this hard earned money after making 3 final tables yesterday at micro MTT's (Jorge A Montoya) just to cash out my $300 check to pay my part of the rent needed.

His 2+2 name is AceAce and FT sn is OMGTHERIVER his hotmail email where we talked is nickvalley90@hotmail.com

The reason I needed the transfer was because Stars offers the fastest option to getting my money, (I only play in FT) and I dont have a checking account to get bank wire with FT and I need to provide them with fax info to get a check and its been 3 days and no response etc I need my money by monday.

I sent several reliable/regulars PM's telling asking for a transfer but I guess since I am new to the forums and never done one before they didn't reply. Funny thing is I saved myself $80 since thats what I needed to cash out but he told me he didn't have that much, so I sent him $220.

Now I got $230 to work with, feel horrible right now, not even mad because I know I am a better person and that karma will eventually catch up to him, gotta keep my head up strong and grind.

There doesn't seem to be any record of the transaction in Transfer Thread. Any proof?

I would prefer to trade in smaller increments but I hope that's not a problem.

Have you done any successful transactions on this forum before?

Let me know if you're still interested in this exchange.

thats first PM he sent me then I told him it wont be a problem and asked for his MSN which he gave to me.

Looks like you got scammed trying to scam FTP. Who doesn't have a checking account? are you 12yrs old?


I think you put yourself into this situation and you need to deal with the consequences. and most people would never simply trade even money for this type of transaction.

SOMETHING SEEMS FISHY HERE

I would bet you $20 dollars that you never see that money again. Why would FTP wanna help you when your gonna tell them you got ripped off trying to go around their sites rules pertaining to cashing out???

Although his 11 posts seem pretty normal, he's posted as recently as this afternoon.

Strange story. I don't know why anyone uses transfers anyway unless there are absolutely no other options, seems high risk for a lot of reasons.

All he needs to tell FTP is that he was engaging in a transfer with this guy for PokerStars funds, which is a common thing. What OP intended on using the money for on Stars is irrelevant to the situation at hand.

I also fail to see how FTP is being scammed here.

I am not saying FTP will be sympathetic or even be able to help the OP (sorry), but your logic is stupid.

that is uncorrect pokestars dont take money of anyone in this situation as the person voluntarily sent the transfer , therefor the funds are not fraudlent, pokerstars states that transfers are at your own risk.

FTP are different they will lock someones aco**** for this but pokerstars dont.

i stopped reading what you had to say right about here... FTP obviously has their rules set for cashouts for a reason. Going around those rules (is that better than the word scammed. you tool?)

Really? You can lose the bet any time, but you'd die of old age before you could claim a win!

I think i said that to kick OP while he's down on his luck. Im a bastard and don't empathize for ******s (or basically anyone who starts a post about getting scammed.) I wish they would complain to their own friends instead of us!
