Hello. As a shy, introverted and yes very depressed individual it is not easy to come forward but I feel the need to let it out of my chest and most importantly warn others although this medium has its limitations in reach.

Crypto poker group is a scam and they are right now preparing to make its exit: Telegram group shut down, support email blocks all emails, in the software all the promotions, tournaments, sit and gos removed, just a few cash NLH games to squeeze the last pennies before the run I presume so if you read this heed my warning DO NOT DEPOSIT and if you can, cash out before it's too late (maybe already is).

I really don't know how I could be so naive and reckless as I usually am very cautious but I remember discovering the group and people saying they cashed out , the telegram account at that time was open to comments so I thought they had nothing to hide… It was only after I deposited and the message that appeared “Thank you for the donation” that gave me shivers down my spine... I thought I was paying for a service not tipping some guys.

Only after that I did a more thorough research, the one I should have done in the first place, the one that I always do but this time was blindside by greed or something.. I just don't know for sure… the thing is I found the threads in this forum and also in another poker forum and I felt gutted… But of course the human nature is wicked and because I just handed my money just like that I wanted to believe more in the scammers than the ones that were exposing the scam.. yes maybe you all complaining are friends, or the same person creating false accounts, or you did do something wrong to deserve the punishment.. that's what I wanted it to be true.. Also considered the option: yes it is a ponzi scheme but hopefully I will get paid, I am a small fish compared to others and maybe if I am quick I can get a profit and cash out…

But I became complacent, more greedy seeing my bankroll go up and didn't want it to go down, seeing more people playing ,chatting, insulting for no reason, it gave me a sense of a poker room normalcy... but now it seems I have runned out of time...

The deposit I made is nothing compared with the figures I've seen discussed here but of course this was before the latest bull run of Ethereum and Bitcoin so the money was really needed as this Covid times made my financial situation even worse.

I am always surprised how come there are not more people speaking out when these scams occur but then again I think about human nature… my nature.. people will not speak because of the shame, the introvert personalities, the “I am so rich that I will just brush this off” type.. but the worse is the “I got scammed now I want you all to burn with me”... So I write this not just to vent and to warn you but also to see more people sharing their experiences and posting warnings as I wonder when the site shuts down- and believe me it will-  how many will share their woes; maybe some high rollers that are playing maybe against some bots ( I also saw suspicious activity but I lack the the respective tools to prove it), get their funds seized and have the means and ways, the power and money that I don't have (by a long shot), maybe, just maybe they will have the same desire and fire that burns inside and think to themselves “Let's go get these effin scammers!”

All I can say is if you are adamant about taking these guys down, don't wait for there to be more victims. Best of luck.

The problem is money and lack of people interested in suing them. I don't know why they don't want to sue them tbh.

Just thought I would share that they (cryptopokergroup) reached out to me, asking to be listed/promoted on btcgosu.com - promotion here became nearly impossible so they are reaching out to affiliates directly --> they are still active --> careful everyone.

Edit: I will be adding them to my blacklist shortly.
Sneaky pricks. I'm guessing they are hoping you are just another shill and will pop whatever site reaches out if the offer is good enough. Well done.
Yeah, they are reaching for affiliates as they know we will hit them hard if they come to forums.
Thanks for the heads up, man.
We are on the fence of getting a lawyer guys, but if more people are scammed by those assholes, I will gladly file a suit on them and get them in jail, even if it takes all of my money.

I just want my signature back. It sucks that I was right about them years ago, I get my signature removed because they said I was “spamming” the thread, then they go on to scam people for 50k plus before mods finally do something, and my punishment remains. Mods do not answer my messages.

Honestly, really feel let down by mods here. Not sure I should care because this place sucks.
I know this is late but how did you lose your Signature for "spamming" the thread. Feel free to PM me about this as it could be off-topic here. Also Ban evasion relates to opening an account if your first one was banned - no exceptions. All future accounts get banned as well. If that was the case you can create a topic in meta for a ban appeal.

I'm no mod, and have no special powers but could try and point you in the right direction if you truly care. Are you sure you can't put a signature on though - you should get 150 characters.

Hey guys just stay away from Crypto Poker club. I found another case with scammed people on worldpokerdeals - poker affilate with very good reputation for years:

https://worldpokerdeals.com/blog/crypto-poker-club-why-is-this-poker-room-in-the-worldpokerdeals-blacklist

They scammed more people for total of 40k USD and they are on worldpokerdeals black list:

https://worldpokerdeals.com/blog/crypto-poker-club-why-is-this-poker-room-in-the-worldpokerdeals-blacklist

UPDATE: The site seems to have taken that page down, but at least it's on their blacklist: https://worldpokerdeals.com/blacklist

so that hackers don't know that it's not draining all your money, so the account owner isn't suspicious.

reading the post above motivates me to be more careful and more thorough.

They are just scammers. They took everyone's coins :/

If they weren't scammers, they would be here fighting every accusation and not running and hiding like the scumbags they are.

New update, guys.

It seems "CryptoPokerClub" account here in bitcointalk, recently changed both password and email: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=1935242

As of May 25, 2020.

They are just running, hiding and changing all of their details (possibly hosting providers as well).

Only scammers hide from a scam accusation.

THese scammers changed their telegram group to: https://t.me/cryptopokergroup

Their previous scam telegram group for CryptoPokerGroup Scam was: https://t.me/cryptopokerclub

Notice they changed "club" to "group".

Funny, how they changed their group name hehe.

They know we are unto them and THEY know we know they are scammers! Smiley

They keep changing their details as they know they are scammers and they don't want us to track them down.

There's no reason to run or change details if you are legit. Only scumbag scammers run! Cheesy

EDIT: You can see the telegram group "cryptopokerclub", the one deleted, in: https://t.me/s/cryptopokerclub

If you are legit, you don't run, delete a group then change to another name nor domain even!

I will keep you guys updated if these scammers change anything.

If you can prove they are in LA area and can get info such as name and address or phone, I would suggest contacting LAPD and report a fraud in progress (unless they shut it down in which case it would no longer be in progress).

That would be the way to go, criminal charges first, then civil.

I think that will be tough. We need racknation.cr to cough the details of those fckers, that way we will know who we are against here.

Tell them they are currently assisting in committing a financial crime and you’d prefer to get the info without getting the police involved.

Dude, they dont give a fuck about this.

We need to lawyer up. I sent you guys a pm with a telegram group link so we can discuss this further, but anyway, I didn't lose money, so you guys are not interested, ok then.

Hey guys, this is important.

So, they have been using IP "190.112.223.106" and it seems it's from their game server.

I don't know if these scammers own this IP, but I'm sure it has to do with them as if you see the IP records, you can see it's from their game server the hostname:

 ip: "190.112.223.106"
hostname: "game.cryptopokergroup.com"
city: "San Jose"
region: "California"
country: "US"
loc: "37.3329,-121.8916"
postal: "95113"
timezone: "America/Los_Angeles"
asn: Object
asn: "AS52423"
name: "Data Miners S.A. ( Racknation.cr )"
domain: "racknation.cr"
route: "190.112.223.0/24"
type: "isp"
company: Object
name: "Data Miners S.A. ( Racknation.cr )"
domain: "racknation.cr"
type: "isp"
privacy: Object
vpn: false
proxy: false
tor: false
hosting: false
abuse: Object
address: "300m sur de restaurante il pomodoro, Edificio Centro Creativo, ,, 9182100 - San Pedro - SJ"
country: "CR"
email: "[email protected]"
name: "Felipe Cruz"
network: "190.112.220.0/22"
phone: "+506 40001053 []"



Either, they are in California, USA or in Costa Rica.

And it could be possible to get a judge to make an order to get Racknation to provide these scammers details, such as logged IPs, payment details, server details and more.

I tried contacting the game server Racknation.cr, but it seems they don't give a flying fuck about this.

I also contacted Namecheap, Namecheap Hosting and Godaddy about all this and let's see if they give a fuck about this.

I will pm everyone that has posted here that says they have been scammed by this pokerer site. Let's see if we can get a class action suit against these scammers.

Hey guys, I made this thread in the scammer's main thread:

I'm new here and wanted to start by helping fellow members.

I think there's tons of more info to be found. I will update as soon as I report them to the service providers as well as if I find more details.

Hey guys, I just joined bitcointalk, and I want to start a poker site, so I have been looking into the competition, and seeing that cryptopokergroup.com is scamming members, I decided to take a look and this is what I found so far:

https://www.whois.com/whois/cryptopokerclub.io - The whois info of their first domain

https://www.whois.com/whois/cryptopokergroup.com - The whois info of their latest domain.

I found several things that can be used to corrupt their site, if you guys so desire:

I found their "admin" login page: https://admin.cryptopokergroup.com/login/default.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f

Dude, that admin login page is so insecure and I may bruteforce my way into logging into their scammer's cave. That's probably where all the scams start.

Also, I found several emails to contact in case of abuse (which I will place down below).

Also, I found where their game servers are, Data Miners S.A. ( Racknation.cr )
I will submit abuse emails and reports to all parties laid here, in order to take down this scammer site once and for all. I don't think we can save any scammed coins, but we can stop these scammers from taking from more people.

Their server IP from cryptopokergroup.com is on https://www.racknation.cr/ is: 190.112.223.106 (Racknation.cr IP)
Their admin, affiliate and game servers IPs is: 190.112.223.106 (Racknation.cr IP)
Their root public site IP is: 192.64.115.146 (Namecheap.com Hosting IP)

So, in short, their affiliate, admin and game servers are located at https://www.racknation.cr/ and their root domain hosting (the site that everyone sees), is hosted at https://www.namecheap.com/hosting/

In regards to their emails, they are managed from Google with these servers:
alt2.aspmx.l.google.com
aspmx.l.google.com
alt3.aspmx.l.google.com
alt4.aspmx.l.google.com
alt1.aspmx.l.google.com

Also, their google site verification code is:
google-site-verification=jQPChjSS9oLB59VXNUJmuaIzGGJb-46EuceY4jzdinc

So, as I said, we can just send tons of emails to the abuse departments of each service provider and hope they take down their service and pass their details to the authorities.

Hopefully, Racknation.cr will cooperate as that's where the main scam operation takes place (the game server, logs, the admin scam panel, etc)

When I find more info and after I report these scammers, I will post here or on the scam accusation thread (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/crypto-poker-group-scam-5243049)

Also, I found some subdomains of the deleted cryptopokerclub.io and their ongoing scam site cryptopokergroup.com:

lyncdiscover.cryptopokerclub.io
instantplay.cryptopokerclub.io
game.cryptopokerclub.io
affiliate.cryptopokerclub.io
admin.cryptopokerclub.io


instantplay.cryptopokergroup.com
game.cryptopokergroup.com
affiliate.cryptopokergroup.com
admin.cryptopokergroup.com

EDIT:

At game.cryptopokergroup.com I found 3 .exe files

SetupCryptoPoker247.exe
SetupCryptoPokerClub.exe
SetupCryptoPokerGroup.exe

I don't suggest you download these at all, but If needed, I uploaded them securely:

https://mega.nz/file/ok9lhCrB#7PDsR__gLSHVNfGSVQnEeefyy5zvpaWA1SrFYRyLWqw
https://mega.nz/file/l50VhCRC#g3g-pkZUQIxbfyfv1so9gTibmQ53eEgZ6-pLM8lG5vw
https://mega.nz/file/M40zWQJT#YGMMwiabsSHuZNBOlDwKa8xDlCVUe5XDFyWoOCGJlhg

EDIT 2:

it seems that domain cryptopokergroup.com is also propagating malware through exe files.

The setup files can be found at:

https://game.cryptopokergroup.com/SetupCryptoPokerClub
https://game.cryptopokergroup.com/
https://game.cryptopokergroup.com/SetupCryptoPoker247
https://game.cryptopokergroup.com/SetupCryptoPokerGroup

Just add .exe to the files above as it seems btc talk censors the links

It seems that SetupCryptoPokerGroup.exe and SetupCryptoPokerClub.exe files are the same, just the name changed.

Anyway, as two files are the same, only 2 scans could be done. The results are below:

https://www.hybrid-analysis.com/sample/b6d6af6e588eca6422cf4829cf2f4bacf324ecdf7830930296e4a7408c338a97
https://www.hybrid-analysis.com/sample/593ce36fea679d7ed8db2881e89c6650c18202cbaee608d901ea9db33541fd54

If, by the time the setup exe files can't be found in those URLs, there are backups at:

https://mega.nz/file/ok9lhCrB#7PDsR__gLSHVNfGSVQnEeefyy5zvpaWA1SrFYRyLWqw
https://mega.nz/file/l50VhCRC#g3g-pkZUQIxbfyfv1so9gTibmQ53eEgZ6-pLM8lG5vw
https://mega.nz/file/M40zWQJT#YGMMwiabsSHuZNBOlDwKa8xDlCVUe5XDFyWoOCGJlhg

EDIT 3:

Also, it's possible that the game server could send your hole cards to the game server. This is not verified yet, but it's possible that's what could happen.

No they just scammed me out of 2btc.  This site should be shutdown by the authorities.  Anyone using this site, you will never ever get your money out of this site.  I deposited .5 bitcoin, spread over a few months i was able to build it to 2btc.  I withdrew 1btc at this time.  They then accused me of logging on from multiple locations and "irregular betting patterns" LOL.  total trash.  I do the same thing every time, i change up my playing styles depending on opponents.  I have been a long time player of online poker.  I should of googled prior to depositing.  Now i lost 2BTC.  This place is a grade A scam ,  never ever even play on here or deposit, they are scum scammers.


I think their strategy is pretty obvious at this point. The traffic is mostly from their house bots and few real players. They are trying to lure new players with unbelievable deposit bonus, rake race and rakeback. Most of the time new players loss their deposit  vs house players and if real player got lucky and win some btc, cpc don't let them  cash out or just make it look they got hacked. In conclusion no one gets their btc.... Such a scam!!!

Last week i made a short visit to their ANN on gambling section but due to lack of i time was unable to visit their website. Someone have already mentioned on pervious replie  that they are using new domain now. Personally Feeling really bad after hearing the story from your side. All their activities is just like other serial scammers. After stealing peoples money through fake ICO, Ponzi, Hyip and casinos now they are targeting poker.

Flag supported and wish others gonna do same from their end. Please put the flag link on your main topic. I will suggest you to update your thread by following the proper scam format. You will easily find all guidelines on this sections pin post area. 


Yes. They are such a scam. I am trying to find out who stands behind CryptoPokerClub but no success so far.If anybody knows something let me know. There is no info on their site as well... Anyway my point of making that thread is to avoid more people getting scam!!! I hope it gets very popular and more people find out about CryptoPokerclub.

I did update the thread. However I don't know how to add flag link.

I think you have to support the flag as there's already a flag in place.

Last week i made a short visit to their ANN on gambling section but due to lack of i time was unable to visit their website. Someone have already mentioned on pervious replie  that they are using new domain now. Personally Feeling really bad after hearing the story from your side. All their activities is just like other serial scammers. After stealing peoples money through fake ICO, Ponzi, Hyip and casinos now they are targeting poker.

Flag supported and wish others gonna do same from their end. Please put the flag link on your main topic. I will suggest you to update your thread by following the proper scam format. You will easily find all guidelines on this sections pin post area.

Good luck downloading their software. LMAO

These scumbags will rob you then hack you then cheat you on other sites. Wonder how much they have stolen

I have to share this post here as well. Take a look at all the BS their installer has. You would need to be crazy to install that.

On top of all they have house bots on 6max 24/7 running games with 4 or 5 people waiting for a customer to take his money probably they share cards and stuff like this. If a good player shows up and win they just scam him the other way(blaming a player that he use some kind of software or bot or just make it look like someone  "hacked" his account)Its just disgusting. All this stories can be seen on here:  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.37971001           24 pages of scammed people

Not to mention that they promote their rake race and promotions so hard and I am pretty sure most of the prizes are won from house players!!!

Also, guys, cpc/cpg are all scammers. They say they own their own software and have technicians working qround the clock and i call bs on that. You know why?

Well, a few montes ago, someone confided me that these scammers were running their code from runyourownpokersite.com, a renting poker software that you pay monthly and you can run your own poker site.

Now, i dont think that platform is scam, but cpc are scammers and liars by telling everyone that they have their own software and they fix everything, that part is BS.

You can compare cpc/cpg graphics to the runyourownpokersite.com and you will see they are very similar and thats because they are running their poker software.

With this, you will see that what they lie by telling the software is from them and that they have "different teams."

If thats not enough proof that these scammers are liars and pondscum, i dont know what is.

Both can be true. Even though that is not open source software it is probably not hard to hack it, modify it and run a version of it that you now control. I played poker as a professional for 10 years and there is no doubt in my mind they are able to rig the games. Although, perhaps they stopped that, or at least stopped being so obvious about it because I called them out on it.

Hey @LastcallS, please change the thread title to "Crypto poker club/Crypto Poker Group scam".

These scammers changed domain, so it's better to change it for seo purposes and people to see the new changed name/domain.

The possible hack does not have to come from your computer, though no matter how much you seem to be going on safety websites, you can't be 100% sure. justification for being hacked is becoming more and more common by fraudsters.
Can you share here all your conversation with his support about this problem? Also, it will be fine if we can hear the explanation from CryptoPokerClub

edit: I support your flag which can be revised if evidence something else.


I understand what you mean. Crypto Poker Club support explanation was basically that my computer was compromised by virus or malware.
However I was playing in many poker sites at the same time and no other accounts were "hacked".There is few facts that make it obvious they took the funds:
1)In case of forgotten password they just sent you the new one. No one does that!!! This is means that they can change the password at any time and log in(it explain why i was't able to log in with my original password)
2)The withdraw was approved for 9 min even thought someone log in from different IP address from Germany. And here I need to mention that I live in Canada and never played from other location since I create the account on September 2018. Here you have to consider the large amount of cash out 4btc - usually sites take extra time for such a large number.

On top of that If it was a real hacker he would leave me with 0. They just wanted to lured me in to keep earning them rake  by leaving(0.6btc)  and refunding (1.17btc) on the site.

In the beginning I was thinking that someone from their team took the funds. Clearly I wasn't aware of their previous scams and bad history or I would never play there.

"This way the poker account can be compromised and one of you employees can have access to the new password" - my statement

Here is CPC explanation about the password:

Your account did not request a new password before being logged into therefore how would a staff member know what the password was? Even with full admin access all passwords are encrypted and the database would not be readable like that.

Also it won't be possible for someone to log into your account without it showing up in your login history therefore it would be obvious that a staff member did so.

Lastly the forgot password feature was not used in your case and the new password was only sent after the account report was made by you.

This means that:
A member of staff would not be able to access your account without resetting your password which would then be visible to all that someone did that
A member of staff can't simply access the database and retrieve it due to encryption
Logs and server activity cannot be overridden or turned off due to architecture built into the servers which is outside the visibility/control of the support staff
Even if logs and server activity could somehow be manipulated (which it cannot); you would need full server level root access which staff members do not have for security reasons far greater than simply account institution. The server admins do not have access to the platform's general control panel and cannot see players accounts meanwhile the platform's moderators have access to accounts (like an admin portal) but do not have root access to the servers (the mechanism of which controls the totality of the platform).
To help you understand how the management process works we have two groups of admin staff. The day to day 'moderation team' and the 'server technology team'.

The moderation team handles daily management tasks, setting up games/tables, handling of general account queries and managing support. They have a special admin portal which they can execute all tasks as needed. Only specific and certain tasks can be done through the portal.

The server team handles server uptime, works on updates & fixes as well as works on new features. They strictly do not have any method of accessing what the moderation team can see and they do not need it. A staging server is created from their end replicating the entire platform without real funds or players. This way updates and fixes can be achieved with testing before new updates are pushed live. It also helps recreate problems that the live server may have without impacting live games.

A similar principle is applied for our card shuffling (RNG) mechanisms making it tamper proof which can be read in our whitepaper that was released in 2018. Again in the RNG model - the staff do not have access to the RNG units and due to the architecture built - no staff member can know which cards are going to be generated next (even with full admin rights). Our platforms are built in a decentralized methodology from the top-down.

This is also why we utilize offline segregation in cold storage for all funds preventing any future hacks to our systems. It is for this very reason that we can't offer instant withdrawals and we have withdrawal time slots once per day where all withdrawal requests are processed.

As we said before - security is our number one priority. Everything from servers, game applications, internal processes and many features like card shuffling are built with security in mind.

It is not possible for this intrusion to have occured internally. We have only ever had two cases whereby users claimed an account is compromised. You would be the second and the first user later discovered malware caused his leak.

Don't worry about those scammers replying. They ignore everything and just keep scamming players.

I've been warning players to NOT play there and I and cryptoninja11 are always ignored. They don't give a crap about being called out.

Also, they seem to change their domain from CryptoPokerClub.io (Crypto Poker Club SCAM) to CryptoPokerGroup.com (Crypto Poker Group SCAM).

Hello,

I was one of the first (if not the first) to call them out as a scam. I heard about them a couple years ago, started playing the freerolls and thought it was going to be easy building up a roll and I wouldn’t have to deposit. I even signed up as an affiliate and put a link on my site, CryptoNinja.co

My first sign that something was wrong was that after only a few days I received a very unprofessional email complaining that I hadn’t referred anyone yet. I removed the link from my site.

The next thing I noticed was that some of the players seemed to be bots. These players at times would make very strange calls. It’s almost as if they knew ahead of time what cards would come. Then I noticed it was going to be very hard to withdraw. Actually, playing the freerolls (if you win) makes it HARDER to withdraw because you need to have paid some formula, times of rake has to be greater than your freeroll winnings. Almost everyone in the freerolls were unaware of this, and once they figured it out they went to the cash tables and got cleaned out, as did I. More very strange hands happened, including one (in a cash game) where I held KK, raised pre, bet pot flop, all in turn on a board of like 3,7,J,2 and was snap called by A9. Ace river. Very, very weird call.

I mentioned some things seemed weird in the Telegram, instantly banned. Tried contact through Twitter, instantly blocked. Account frozen. So, it was at this time I posted on Bitcointalk. I may have rambled on a little in the thread (more about specific hands) and they complained and said I was “spamming” and the fantastic mods here punished me by removing my ability to have a signature. Despite the fact that I came here trying to help the community, and they have continued to scam people, my punishment remains. Thanks Bitcointalk mods! Fabulous job! Bravo.

P.S. I have messaged the mods on multiple occasions and they do not respond.

Hey guys,

I was also scammed by Crypto Poker Club (CryptoPokerClub.io Scam), which coincidentally changed domain to Crypto Poker Group (CryptoPokerGroup.com SCAM).

These scammers have taken the coins of so many people. They got me for like 1 BTC around 1 year ago.

Here are tons of the scams they have pulled. They probably have taken over $100k in players funds.



Let me repost all the posts/replies of you scamming people's money:

Let me list all of the threads here:

Ohh and by the way, why don't you address your predatory terms when it comes to giving those "100%" deposit bonus?

---

Just to make it more interesting I saw more things!

- Your 0.5BTC "Freeroll" was just a "0.5mbtc" freeroll - Deceptive marketing tricks!
- Rake goes uncapped when it was supposed to be capped!
- Hired House players! ( https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.47114322 - Your reply )

I'm really sorry about everyone who got scammed by them.

I've been really active on their thread trying to warn players NOT to play in there.

I hope this gets resolved one way or another.

The fact that they approved your cash out which is not from your usual IP is enough to prove that they are scammers. That is the whole point of manual cash out system to prevent any hacking attempt to cash out your funds.
The other point is valid too, that any fair website cannot change your password without  sending password changing mail. They simply steal your funds and you should open a flag against them.

Hey guys,

Please stay away from cryptopokerclub – They scam me for 4btc.

Profil Link: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/cryptopokerclub-1935242

Their thread - BEST CRYPTO POKER | NEW CORONAVIRUS RELIEF PACKAGE: 3X CASH BONUS + LESS RAKE
You can see how many people got scammed there!!!

Amount scammed: 4 BTC

Payment method: Bitcoin

Proof of payment: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/bc1qmyqdqg2l0f37wmkzlz5u8axnmawndnmv7t7kwn

Additional Notes: I advise you to not deal with this user until this dispute is resolved

My user name on the platform is Lastcall and played for year and a half.
On April 6th I requested a withdraw around 12pm Eastern Time for 0.01btc. The next morning around 8.30am I couldn’t log in with my password and blacklisted my account. I email the support about it and they sent me this:

Hello,

Your password has been reset to: D8J_Df3J@enT

The account has been blocked due to incorrect password attempts and now has been unlocked.

Regards,
Crypto Poker Club Team

I log in my account and surprise I saw a different balance around 0.6btc.I wasn’t sure what was happening and asked support about it. The night before I had ~ 5.77 btc.  I checked the withdraw history and I saw 2 requested cash outs – 1) 0.01 btc around  12pm Eastern Time ( from myself before I went to bed) and 2) 4btc 7:10am Eastern Time.  I also checked the REPLAY HAND option on the poker platform because there was still missing 1.17btc and I saw the last 5-6 hands where the person who log in on the account  lost them on 1/2 NL Holdem table(chip dumping) vs Shaolin10.
According to CPC (Cryptopokerclub) my account was hacked.  This is simply not possible because I use my PC strictly for playing poker and the rest of my accounts on other poker platform are not hacked. I even hired a professional to check my PC and he couldn’t find anything.
However it is pretty obvious how they scam me. Please take a look at the email they send me once I asked for new password (they create the new one). Every other poker site sends you an email with a link where you have to change it yourself for obvious reasons. This way they can latterly change every player password and log with their new password (explain the fact that I wasn’t able to log in with my original password cause they change it). The other thing is according to them the second withdraw was requested from Germany and approved for 9 minutes (7:10am Eastern Time request/7:19am Eastern Time approved and sent). How would you approve cash out given the facts that:
1)   I live in Canada and never played from another location on the poker site since I create an account  September 2018 
2)   7hours later after my first requested withdraw someone log in from the other side of the world and requested another one if this is not suspicious don’t know what it is especially for such a large number.
CPC  explanation:
The withdrawal was already approved and in queue prior to the 4000 mBTC withdrawal request due to the 10 mBTC request from earlier. It was simply added to an existing queue ready to be sent out later today. The original request was approved at the time indicated (Finance Team accepted Withdrawal #45291 for 0.01 BTC made on April 07 at 05:20 UTC - Withdrawal included into queue).
The way they do the withdraws is that they group them together and send them daily. I don’t understand how would you approve the second withdraw based on the first one especially if the IP address is totally unusual (Germany). I know why because it was made by you and this is how you took the 4btc.
They refund me 1.17btc that was chip dumped from 1/2  HU NL table to make me feel good about the whole situation. Probably so I can keep playing on the site and generate rake but I can’t trust them anymore and  I cashed out the remain balance-1.70btc. If it was a real hacker he/she would cash out all the balance and won’t leave any btc on the account.
