I suppose that FTP is a fraudulent site. [Bumped from 4/2006]

Well ten bucks certainly isn't significant, and I have no idea if the OP is or is not involved in something fishy. At least it doesn't seem likely that this is one of those, create an uproar and maybe put pressure on the site to refund my seized chip dumping money posts.

However this, we won't tell you what you did wrong and furhther more we don't intend to ever respond to you again line is not something that engenders much confidence in a site.

My poker league recently started running weekly private tourney's on Full Tilt to get the prize pool up for our season ender freeroll and to give the folks low in the points standings more chances to luckbox their up the standings.

I had been planning on joining FT to play in the tourneys. I don't think I want to join a site with that kind of sketchy behavior.

either 1 of 2 things is possible here:

1) Skaits is a cheater. Even so, FullTilt still sucks anyway.

2) Skaits is legit and FullTilt sucks yet again.

Well if you have a serious issue you could take it to the KGC. But if you really were involved in fraud they are not going to think highly of your case.

Thanks for posting this. I will never EVER play at full tilt again, and I will try to convince my friends not to play there either. Wow. FullTilt sucks.

I won't play at Full Tilt again... but not because they took money from a bunch of Latvian colluders.

First Prima; now FTP. It's quite concerning that the only way that players seem to be able to get the attention of the "higher ups" in these sites is by making a fuss on poker forums.

I'd like to understand (before considering playing on FTP again) how such a gross error could be made by their staff. Clearly their procedures leave a lot to be desired -- you never get this crap from Stars, or at least if you do then they clearly state their reasons.

I have supposition that it happened because I played poker in Olympic casino using public Wi-Fi service. So, may be I have got same IP address that another player on previous days.

But I'm sure this is not FRAUDULENT activity, of course.

For example, let's suppouse that you travel in another country or city. You would like to play poker at your Hotel or Airport using Wi-Fi point. In this case you may get same IP addres that another one on privious days.

Is it fraud?

Personally, IMO, regardless of "original cause", a CS representative at any poker site can't just reply to a client's email with comments such as:

(caps added for emphasis)

"....We do not tolerate fraudulent behavior. Your business is NO LONGER WELCOME at Full Tilt Poker."

"...your account has been CONFIRMED to be involved in FRAUDULENT activity. Your Full Tilt Poker account will remain PERMANTENTLY CLOSED. Please understand that we may NOT RESPOND to future emails regarding this issue."

Then, to top it off, without any apparent explanation by Full Tilt on *WHY* this particular client's account was initially closed, nor *WHY* they chose to re-open the account, they just informed that the account is active again as if nothing happened. Amazing.

"...to confirm that your account has been REOPENED at this time.....Thank you for your COOPERATION in CLEARING up this situation...."

Either a CS representative at Full Tilt saw this forum or was pointed to this forum... in either case, if Full Tilt want to keep business, they have to explain this horrible communication on their part... or we here at 2p2 can "assume it could happen to any of us at any time" which they wouldn't want us to think that way....
