Lol AP emailaments
 

Apparently, the spin control at AP is in full effect. Got an email today from "press" at AP pointing out how incorrect our radio show last Sunday was.

Specifically, they say they have acknowledging the internal security breach; repairing the breach; terminating the former consultant responsible for the security breach; launching an internal investigation and two independent audits, including provision of the hand histories for the cheating period in question; fully reimbursing players in order to make them whole; and, pledging to be as forthcoming as possible with information as the investigations proceed.

I replied asking for someone to come on the show and answer questions, but obviously they won't do that. I also pointed out how they have been somewhat less than forthcoming.

Odds they agree to an interview?

Tuco.

I already asked him in the other thread that was specific to him, but have received no PM's or emails and I don't expect to.

you won't. the "interview" he did on this was basically him sitting in front of a camera. he literally could have been the only one in the room, reading off of cue cards. can't get asked the wrong question if you are sitting alone.

I'm just surprised they did not threaten to sue you.

lime that was awesome.

I can say with 100% certainty they won't agree to an interview before the audit results are provided to them. They don't want to say something wrong until they know what the audit finds.

But after the audit is complete, I could actually see them giving an interview or two provided that they know what they're dealing with on the other end (ie, to a major outlet like PokerNews or whoever). I don't think they'd take a chance on some hyper-aggro questioners pushing them to put AJ in jail or something.

Which basically means they will do an interview with media that still supports ($$$) the biggest scam in online poker, like Bluff or G911, and not someone with integrity, like ABC, ESPN, or the Associated Press.
The only people that have anything good to say about the company are the people the company pays to say good things about them.
Everyone else says it like it is.
AP sucks.

Well done Tuco,

Not willing to do a proper interview: historically the sign of an innocent party... Neither AP nor the KGC has responded to any of my emails giving them right of reply to very specific questions in a 5000-word article I'm writing. Says it all.

The audit is a total sham; nothing more than a delaying tactic and a smokescreen. What they SHOULD be doing is a criminal investigation. This is pure fraud - an offence even in Costa Rica.

AP has tacitly admitted that AP itself did the defrauding, because if it was someone else, THEY would have to pay it back, not AP. Their T&C makes that very clear - if you get cheated, the cheat pays you back.

If AP had called the Costa Rican police and reported the crime immediately, followed by the naming and shaming of all the cheats (their T&C specifically reserves that right), then maybe, just maybe, we could believe a word they say from now on.

None of that has happened. None of that is going to happen.

QED: AP is still a criminal enterprise, rotten to the core. The constant bullsh*t about 'one rogue consultant' neglects these unfortunate facts:

1) Super-User account #363 is AS OLD AS THE COMPANY.
2) AJ Green joined AP long after that account was created.

The only reason to have accounts with 'God-mode' capabilities in the first place is to cheat. People in AP planned this from day one - and they've been stealing from players since the company opened for business. Nothing they say or do can ever be trusted again.

I know of at least four mainstream media outlets that are about to cover Absolute Fraud in depth.

AP is deservedly going under - and when it does, any deposited money will vanish with Scott Tom and the rest of them. At that point, the few remaining AP apologists may finally see the light.

And we'll have a cleaner, safer, online poker industry.

I'll say this. Normally I don't listen to poker radio shows (find them very boring). But let me say that I found episode 125 very informative, entertaining, and no [censored].

Sure would be nice if Absolute could follow that same structure, but then we wouldn't have such an entertaining soap-box.
