Who seriously thinks it's a coincidence?
Very sketchy.

However, is there a chance that all the attention of the Brett/Speedlimits thread gave the scammer an idea for a username?

I'm not saying I believe this, but if the Pokerbotv7 from this forum is in anyway connected, well, I don't even know what to think atm...

These are people that try to impersonate me. Most of them should already be banned.

gl OP, this is terrible.

edit: just read the OP and found it. i am not pokerbot_v7 on ipoker. i had an account on titan poker for a g2p2 tourney we played some weeks ago. my screenname there is McLovin or something like that. i never played on any ipoker skin beside that g2p2 tourney.

ArrrInnnn, do you want to indicate something? If so, get your facts straight before you post another suspicion. Just to make this clear: I am probably one of the top 3 traders (just search for my name in the HS transfer thread) and my reputation is very well. it should be pretty obvious the someone just used my name on ipoker (like they do it here as well) and that it is not me.

Is pokerbot_v7 on 2P2 the scammer? No.

The scammer mentioned ITT is obv a seasoned scammer who can who is pretty good at persuading and misdirecting his victims.

When I first read the OP and saw PokerBotv7 my mind made a connection sorta like this:

Pokerbotv7 on iPoker > Transfer Scams > European Scammer > Pokerbotv_7 on 2P2!!?? > Multiple PokerBotv_7 names on 2P2? > Brett "Bad Man" Mrzowski > Scammer > Is Pokerbotv7 expert Reverse Scammer from Europe > WTF!?

But then I did a little thinking...

(The real) pokerbot_v7 makes many large sum transfers across various sites. You can see these transactions in the high stakes transfer threads.. WHY WOULDN'T scammers want to impersonate him? This easily explains why there are so many variations of his name on 2P2.

Scams are most successful when the scammer impersonates a highly respected/reputable person, such as pokerbot_v7. He fits this profile perfectly when it comes to large cross-site transfers ($5k-$50k). It is very likely that the scammer in OP owns one (or more) of the fake Pokerbotv7 2P2 names and has attempted to scam people in the past by having them send $$$ to his fake Pokerbotv7 on iPoker.

The real pokerbot_v7 on 2P2 is ten thousand times more likely to be a victim of a scam then be a scammer himself. He is a prime target for scammers to scam and a prime target for scammers to impersonate due to his solid transfer reputation.

I'm sure there are MANY MS/HS players that can back this up.

I have been contacted by other people that has claims to have been scammed by the same guy. I'm not posting my video or my logs until we have decided what do do. And we might decide to never post any of it.

I have also been contacted by the scammer again. He wants to come clean and pay his "debt" after realizing that I actually have all the information I claim to have.

To the guys that says I'm stupid and that its my own fault. You are 100% right. I did not see this coming and I'm obv way to trusty. It has been an expensive lesson, and I post my story here so others wont make my mistake.

Make sure those people aren't just trying to scam an easy mark. If they ask for any money, don't send it!

Nothing you could do about it, OP. It is always dismaying and disgusting that people can act so fake over such a long time. Hope you get your money back.
