While of course the KGC is a joke, has anyone received any response to emails sent to them from the KGC?

I'm not sure how the jurisdiction and laws work, but wouldn't a potential next step for one of the victims be to retain an attorney and have him file a complaint with Kahawake, other relevant organizations and subpoena Absolute for the identity of user #363 to confirm/deny if he is an Absolute employee?

The difficulty would be to find a court with jurisdiction over Absolute; presumably, that'd be in Costa Rica, and it may be difficult to launch an action there.

In addition, the costs of such an action may be larger than the risky chance of a refund/payout/whatever.

While the evidence is compelling, if Absolute just issues a second denial and does nothing, what can you do besides boycott Absolute?

The only other action is to communicate these activities to their customers with a direct protest of some sort.

Some ideas off the top of my head:
a) email Absolute customers that we have email addresses for
b) contact advertising hosts to have them cease holding advertising for such frauds
c) sponsor search listings for people looking for absolute poker

Can anyone think of others?
