Topic: Stake frozen my account $181k from sports betting (only Euros/Wimbledon) (Read 1176 times)

I remember in the past there was a scam accusation where the gambling site(forgot the name of the gambling site or the name of the thread) wouldn't want to publicly disclose how they found out how multiple accounts are linked to the accuser because like you said it might make it easier for the accuser to abuse it in the future. I remember the people in the thread including the accuser agreed to pick a number of reputable members picked by the accuser to review the evidence gathered by the gambling site and decide whether the evidence presented by the gambling site is valid or not.

Now if the issue continues and the OP decided to deny your claim, the same thing as in the past could be done to this issue. the problem with what I suggested is that will people believe/be satisfied with what the reputable members decided or if reputable members will be willing to participate in it. although, I remember reading in that thread that the way the issue was handled where members were included to review the evidence given by the gambling site should rarely be done and is not recommended.

what do you mean it is not his fault(I am not saying he actually did it)? but I am pretty sure(I am assuming) there is a part of their TOS that states if a gambler playing on their platform exploited one of their games a punishment will be given to the abuser.

if you look closely, the first part of all the emails is blurred.

Honestly, who cares if he took advantage of an exploit. Thats not his fault.
Day in and day out people lose money because of this.

Slots abuse, hahaha, what a joke.

Still you took his money when he deposited, cant say anything against that.

And thanks for first uploading an unedited picture showing all the email addresses, very professional. Hope someone saved this.

On trustpilot you claim blocked accounts get in "withdrawal only mode". So whats up with that?
Why was he still able to place bets, why did you take his deposits in the first place?

Bitcointalk is an awesome forum in terms of users being able to get their story heard and get public opinions and a response from brands here. Over the years we've had to deal with a number of unsavory individuals that make newbie accounts to get their stories out and take advantage of the trust of the community. Normally we do not like to give these guys the credit of a response but given the attention this thread has generated we feel like we must.

Alzheimersline was frozen because this user is heavily linked to the theft of large amounts of money from slots abuse. rn7TFkRz9PZ2Cn9xwHh71TzkKPUrBhBdyc:0 is the ripple address that Alzheimersline consistently withdrew large amounts of ripple to. This is the same address that a number of accounts responsible for abusing Playson games for $100k+ were utilizing as well. We were able to link these accounts by other means as well but do not want to disclose everything here right now as to not make it easier for him to abuse in the future.


These are some of the accounts linked to the $100k+ Playson games exploit confirmed by their company:
Playson:
These accounts were once again then linked to further theft on GameArt by the account dchil0007
GameArt:
To take this even further, we asked AlzheimersLine to have a video call with us and surprisingly he agreed. On this video call, the person talking to us did not know what bitcointalk was, and supplied a bunch of inaccurate information. It was very obvious that this person was not AlzheimersLine but someone offered a cut by the abuser to try and pass our compliance and gain our confidence. The individual posting here is not the same person.

Really not an unusual situation for us, abusers in the past have always used bitcointalk and accomplices to try and deceive. We've been doing crypto gambling for over 8 years, and I like to think that we have learned a few things since hufflepuff. In this case, this user and their accounts were frozen due to their sloppiness on multiple fronts which linked them to major thefts from Stake and these same exploits were used to exploit other websites in this community.

yes and it seems theyre changing the rules as they go,
they asked kyc. i provided it immediately
they asked skype call. I did that.
Then they say resolve within "latest" next day.

3-4 days later they just are hoping now I give up and be quiet? This issue will not go away, and will continue to erode your reputation until you sort this out

It's sad how most crypto books are a law unto themselves. They never mention kyc when you’re losing regardless of the amount. Scenarios like this occur only when you win significant amounts and try to withdraw.

i would take this to the court if they wont pay up and unfreeze ur account. 200k is such a big amount its not worth giving up on it.

But


It's not "only 5 days".
They asked him to respond within 24h - they however don't respond back so fast.

That's a crooked behavior.

It's extremely pathetic to get experience, I can feel it. This is not a new case, we have been listening bunches of such occurrences. Every single time regulations, terms and condition impose you after a smart winning. After winning user made withdrawal request, then ask users for KYC that's ridiuculous. Clients want to relief this conduct from gambling site.

So 48h ago the guy was supposed to have a reply/solution and yet...... nothing.

What a joke this these stake representatives are!

200k is a big amount, they just want him to lose it.

Smart move. Usually people get impatient and gamble until they lose all. I hope you still didn't gamble any of your funds.

Any updates from Stake? I find it interesting to follow this, as they always used to solve issues quickly. Such a huge delay isn't like Stake at all, but then again, we don't know any details about what really is going on behind the scenes.

Well, it has only been 5 days already but I think that given how big the amount is being frozen, they might be trying to make sure that everything is right first so there's no other hassle when they finally unfreeze your account, I mean I would be suspicious of this amount too. I don't think Stake will risk their reputation just for this amount, they have big sponsorship already, and this won't be their downfall hopefully, be patient and don't be quick to judge and try to contact them again if possible but not in an annoying way.

Try to be patient mate, and do not place any bets untill everything is solved. If you place bets, at some point you will lose and get on TILT and might lose all your stake.
You can show your seriousness and strength about the situation by NOT placing bets. Obviously Stake.com wants you to lose all your money, so dont do that.

it has become very strange, i can still login, place bets, but now after they said 2 days ago that it would be sorted by yesterday at latest, i have received no responses to any contacts

at first i did not want to make this thread (i had help from a friend who said best to put this issue in public) because I could not believe stake would ever be considered a scam, but now im sure so ? they are acting so very strange.

im pretty fking dissapointed of how they act and just keeps u waiting for a response.

Very happy to hear it.

if they are not letting u withdraw, make sure u get good enough proof and a reason from them. By the way enable private messages so people can PM u.

Well it is about the end of the working day, here, and they have not yet fulfilled the promise they made yesterday
"Thank you for being on the call. You will receive an official reply tomorrow at the latest.
"

Causing me great problems, as having to take money from bank account to buy crypto, to be able to place bets on tonight's Spain v Italy game, on a different site, when I had planned to place them at stake with my balance there. (Of course, I have taken the advice of members and not betting with my balance on stake anymore until this is resolved)

Sorry to hear your inconvenience experience in Stake especially it is related to big amount of money. You have done well so far by providing everything they asked for.

Hope you'll get your money asap, I do not think Stake will ruin their reputation for $181k because it should not be a big amount for them to release if there is nothing wrong with your account.

i know it's curacao but whether they have a license from them or are unlicensed is the same.Curacao are crooks who only collect the money from the license. And they don't do anything else. There are hundreds of scam sites that only accept deposits but they understand Curacao, they don't care about anything
