POKERSTARS checks, can I use other names???
 

You know how Pokerstars give you the option beofre each cashout to send a check to a current name and adddress? Well couldn't you just put in whatever name you wanted???

Hypothetically if you trusted people in your family couldn't you make out the checks to them and have them cash them for you???

You could do this in small incriments to each family memeber and then have them do inter bankaccount transfer to your account once you get the money and say it is your annnual 10k gift to a family memeber that would be considered tax free [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Just a question, has anyone done this?
Thanks,

Hypothetically, it sounds like tax evasion.

If your family members are as honest as yourself, this sounds fullproof. I don't see any potential problems with this at all, and I am sure Pokerstars will be more than happy to accomodate your request.

I suggest that you implement this plan immediately.

You really offer nothing to this forum.

Re: POKERSTARS checks, can I use other names???
 

I'm all for looking for ways to reduce tax liablilty but there is a huge flaw in your plan, which makes it worthless. When your relative receives the check, it becomes taxable income for them. You are correct in that each year a person may "gift" a tax exempt amount of up to 11K, and that would keep you from owing any taxes. So if you want to shift the tax burden/tax evasion to your relatives, then go for it!

What if you owe someone money and would rather just send them a PS check to cover the debt?

Let's stop and think about better ways to go about doing this. It may be hard, but I'll give you until tomorrow morning.

Re: POKERSTARS checks, can I use other names???
 

Someone should see if Pokerstars will cut a check to the DOJ? Now that would maybe save this trainwreck of a thread. OP you gonna get pounded in the ass for not paying your taxes and doing something this stupid.

How does this make it worthless, the relative could be in a different tax bracket (although unlikely to be lower than OP's).

Re: POKERSTARS checks, can I use other names???
 

I've got a plan to help you out.

As we don't have to pay tax on gambling winnings here in the UK, send the cheques to me and I'll send the money on to you with a note that says it's from your brother.

Honest, I will.

Re: POKERSTARS checks, can I use other names???
 

There are two names you are now allowed to use on PS besides your own on a check payout, but you must do payout via email, and follow these instructions The names are...

Dustin Woolf or Mark Newhouse

Give that a try Mr Olden, it will work, just put in the email that you let them play some on your account and that's what they won. Bingo! You're in business. When you get the check just sign it over to yourself. I hope this helps you.

Your Welcome Sir!

Re: POKERSTARS checks, can I use other names???
 

Hi,

Issuing checks to names other than those registered with the account is not something that PokerStars does. The reason behind this is that we need to take care that the funds requested by the player are received by the same player. Of course as soon as the check has cleared in the player's bank account they are able to do what they like with those funds.

Whilst this may take longer, from our perspective the delay it is worth the additional layer of security which it provides us in knowing that the money was received by the player who requested the check in the first place. We beleive that this is also in the best interest of the players.

Thanks,
Paul

Re: POKERSTARS checks, can I use other names???
 

OP continues his legacy of high quality posts, this time delving into the touchy subject of tax evasion in a public forum.

Keep up the good work.

Re: POKERSTARS checks, can I use other names???
 

And it's not like it's the first time.

How do you avoid paying taxes to the IRS?

All,

From my memories of other posts, Greg Olden is married (or at least was) and has kids. That's [censored] scary.
