my ftp account got hacked

[Cornell Fiji]

jc,
I have nothing significant to add to this thread but I just wanted to know that I hope that everything works out for you.

Regardless of whether you get your money back or not PLEASE press charges against the scammer. I know that it will be an arduous and time consuming process to figure out where the charges can be filed and who has jurisdiction over the issues and I am sure that it will be a bit of a pain to do some of the detective work for officers who do not want to research the theft of $100,000 from a punk kid but please press charges and follow up often and get this scammer jailtime.

All the best,
Steve

First off, OMG, this makes me want to cry (your sit.) Good luck and I really really hope they get your money back. Secondly, the bolded part...no way in hell I could. Kudos lol.

Lastly, and probably a dumb question, but for you guys that have a significant amount of $$$ in Neteller...couldn't you move to Canada to get the money out?

Rob a bank for $50k, get 20 years. Rob a guy in his 20s for 100k on an online poker site, get "banned". Does that make sense?

I just recieved a reply to my email. I wrote them back and told them how much I appreciate their prompt reply. They admit to being sluggish, which hopefully means they are doing as they say to fix this in the very near future.

It also sounds like the first good news for J in a while! Hopefully they've taken the time to notify him as well.

Hello Zachary,

Thank you for taking the time to share with us your thoughts.

We are doing the best we can to speed up our response time. We have
hired more employees and streamlined the fraud procedure so we can be
more proactive to crisis situations. It was indeed unfortunate about
what happened to 'jcmoussasux'. At the moment, we have tracked and
frozen all players who were sitting at the table with 'jcmoussasux' when
his account was hacked. The good news is we can still recover his money.
The investigation is still on-going but chances are, his money will be
returned.

We beg to disagree with you on your observation that our security
measures are not up to standards. Full Tilt Poker too employs secure
socket layer (SSL) encryption to ensure the highest level of security
for data transmission. All hacking incidents at our site happened not
because someone has been able to hacked through our digital pipelines
and decipher every binary stream of data that pass through those pipes.
No, most assuredly not. Frequently, hackings were done by planting a
keylogger into the victim's computer. It is a simple yet effective
method of hacking someone's account. And this is how the majority of the
victims fell. Interestingly enough, not one PRO at our site has suffered
a hacking. The same is true with our top-drawer players who have more
than $200K in their accounts. These folks have never complained that
their account was hacked. Why? Because they invest in anti-virus
programs and are really careful with their passwords.

On behalf of Full Tilt Poker, I thank you for your comments. We'll be
sure to discuss and act on what your raised because I believe you have a
valid point when you said that our response time is not rapid enough.
Hopefully, we can correct it in the very near future.

We wish you the best of luck at the tables. Should you have any
questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Sincerely,

Larry N

He is saying that the security breach is on the player's end, not on the end of FTP itself. Because if it were, the $200k+ guys would be getting hacked first.

I don't think that's what he's saying. He's saying that $100k doesn't matter as much as $200k. Your answer doesn't make sense please try again...preferably after you're done acting like a retard.

No, he isn't. How do people know how much people have in there accounts? They don't, they see people sitting in big games and try to get at them. She's saying that people w/$200k care more about security than people w/$100k. This is pretty obvious.
