Very professional response sir. I must give it to you, you gave it a valiant effort.
Allow me to retort;
When I entered the Fairplay.io website, the signup process was very straight forward. There is no indication anywhere that identity verification or other KYC will be required.
In fact, there is a gallery slider that is front and center on their homepage and one of the descriptions used to describe the operations includs the term: "COMPLETE ANONYMITY"
https://imgur.com/9wp5C0m image of that can be found here.
I am not sure about anyone else but my interpretation of 'complete anonymity' does not involve having to submit my passport, proof of address, and 3rd form of identification like is required at fairplay.io. IN FACT, having to present those things as a matter of protocol is the exact opposite of what 'complete anonymity' is defined in the English language.
This is the first documented lie and act of deception by fairplay.io but the list will continue as I explain in more detail.
Fairplay has repeatedly used the defense that BC i entered the site using a non-usa IP address that i was deliberately attempting to deceive their security systems or tracking systems. I was not at all attempting to deceive their systems and although i use a vpn to protect myself I have no idea what or where the IP is from at any given time as it connects to the fastest server available. Also, the user is not obligated nor under any regulatory or legal context to disclose his/her true IP address to any website. VPN's are perfectly legal and very common in this day in age so to base you websites regulatory requirements and disclosures SOLELY on the stated ip address of your users is an asinine methodology.
It remains your regulatory and legal obligation to openly disclose any restrictions that your site may be bound to, including age restrictions, jurisdictional restrictions, and any other restrictions that your site imposes.
It's also important to note that KYC is not mentioned AT ALL nor is it required for users to DEPOSIT. In fact users can deposit any amount of funds that they possess and can then even wager with those funds without ever being made aware that KYC will be required for withdrawals and that there are country restrictions.
So after making my deposit and wagering some, I actually won some Ethereum - around .30 and when i attempted to withdrawal i was hit with an error: "sorry kyc is required before any withdrawals are allowed".
So being that I was not at all attempting to disguise my USA nationality, i proceeded directly to the KYC page and submitted all of my documents including my Pennslvania State ID CARD. If i was trying to hide my location i would not have openly submitted my state ID. It was at this time that I also read over the privacy policy and terms and conditions on their wallet website TRUEPLAY.IO (Which is owned and operated by the same individuals that operate the casino fairplay.io). Neither the privacy policy nor the terms and conditions on those sites list any specific country restrictions.
https://trueplay.io/docs/en/Privacy_Policy.pdfhttps://trueplay.io/docs/en/Terms_Conditions.pdfThey do say that the user is responsible for knowing the laws and operating within the parameters of their juridiction, which I WAS and am legally allowed to gamble online due to my residence being in the state of Pennsylvania. On October 26th 2017 the PA State Senate passed 'H 271' which legalized online casino gambling, sports betting, and other various forms of online gambling. The bill was signed into law by the Governor only 3 days later. Therefore I am legally allowed to gamble online and I was not breaking any laws by using their site.
I have to step out for awhile and this is only 1/3 of this nightmarish experience but so far you can see that FAIRPLAY deliberatly misleads users into depositing by having outdated tracking systems which rely solely on IP address location disclosures and then further mislead users by having the words 'COMPLETE ANONYMITY' on the featured banner on the homepage of their website, the moment you arrive there.
AFter you deposit and wager - if you lose, then they keep your funds and you never have to pass any verifications nor even become aware that they exist.
BUT if you win, you will face a 3 document, strenuous, verification process, and if you are from one of the countries that they do not approve of, They will not refund your deposits, they will not pay out any winnings, and they will instead POCKET all of the cryptocurrency that you have deposited and/or won.... under the justification that they are operating around the regualtory restricitons of their license.
Keeping the funds and deposits of former users of their site is the equivalent of robbery or theft and I know for certain that their license does not allow them to steal funds from anyone.
The story goes on much further than this and their reprehensible and deliberately deceptive behavior should be expressed fully to any potential users and or future users, so that they can get a good idea of what type of individuals they will be dealing with. Shady, dishonest, con-artists, would be an understatement in my opinion.
will continue this later on.............
