I tried to log in to Absolute Poker yesterday but to no avail. I emailed them and then they e-mailed me back with the following:

Please note that the reason why you are not able to get in the game is because
we have found that your account is linked to some other accounts which have
performed illegal / fraudulent activities at our site.

When I asked how I get my money back I got the following response:

I'm sorry to inform you that not only your account was closed but the money that
there was in there was confiscated.

Here is the history of my account.

1) When Neteller announced it would pull from Canada I decided to put my money to casinos and poker sites and keep it there until I decide on what ewallet I will use.
2) So I did it. Poker rooms used included AP. I did not have an account there at that time, so I opened it and deposited $2000 on April 8
3) On April 9 I transfered $250 to an AP account of a friend of mine for whom it was too late to use Neteller.
4) On Aptil 11 I opened a Click2pay account and deposited US$20 with it.
5) On April 17 cashed out US$1000 to Click2pay. Another US$700+ still remaining in my account
6) My playing activity was close to inexistent. I would say I only tested their software by playing some very low limit games.

My friend also had his account closed and money confiscated. Interestingly, he got the same reasoning from them "is linked to other accounts that were involved in suspicious and/or fraudulent activity".

I did not transfer money to anyone else, neither did he. We know each other personally and live nearby. He never cashed out from AP. He also did not get a chance to play much. We never sat at the same table.

I can't think of what we violated. At least, the reasoning they gave us is bogus: accounts locked for being linked to one another.

I did not have any problems with other poker rooms and casinos I used.

Any help is appreciated.
