brsavage AP update..**NEW LINK INSIDE**
Chris has some good inside info....
I received word while at lunch that the AP release is due out very shortly. In a nutshell they still have much of the investigation to complete, and that will take time. So far they have definitive proof as to who the culprit was, how he did it, and the fact that he did in fact cash out a significant amount. Further, I am being told that he had more accounts than even we had realized, and they are doing extensive investigations because some of these accounts were attempted to be deleted by him. This person was the second in charge and has been fired from AP, and his one superior Scott Tom is going to be removed from running AP for a significant period of time. For legal reasons the AP release is not going to specifically name this person, and I will elaborate on that fact and why it makes perfect sense. Most of us know this persons name already as it has already been widely reported. This person was Scott Tom's best friend and actually lived at Scott Tom's house in Costa Rica. Scott Tom has been living in Panama for quite some time, and the day to day operations of AP were left to the care of his best friend and second in charge at AP. Unfortunately since the person in command of AP was also the thief he obviously issued numerous steadfast denials of any wrong doing. Basically he was investigating himself. Since this person was a high ranking official he had access to very sensitive information, not only regarding the operations of the company, but also very sensitive information regarding player accounts, balances, names, deposits, withdrawals etc. Because of the Internet Gaming Act their is still a wide gray area as to what is sensitive and what is not. As such the attorneys for both AP and the KGC have the same opinion that is best not to release his name publicly for the simple fact that they do not want more harm being done to the industry as a result of this person possibly trying to disclose this information publicly as a retaliation for him being fired from AP. Further, even though Scott Tom was not involved in the actual theft, he is responsible for the actions of his friend and second in charge of the company, which is why he is being removed for a significant time frame while the entire process of restoring trust in AP takes place. I am being told that all monies players were cheated out of will be repaid. I also have made strong overtures and recommendations that in any case involving a player being cheated AP should err on the side of caution and compensate the player if their is any doubt that he was affected. As I stated before, they already have found several accounts that even we had not known about, and evidence of some accounts that the second in charge tried to delete. All of this investigation is going to take time, but it appears that simply based on this disclosure that they are definitively going to make a concerted effort to make things right. Chris. And from pokernews a letter from the owner of AP.. http://www.pokernews.com/news/2007/1...-statement.htm |

[/ QUOTE ] If that ever happens, if some people`s trust in AP get restored they deserve to get riped off. The fact that these gangsters can get away with something that in some countries people get life sentences for puts me on such a huge tilt that nothing but a lethal injection for the thiefs will satisfy me. By the way, it`s extremely naive (borderline retarded) to think that only one person is guilty here. We are not talking about an underaged hacker here. I guess the skeptics of online poker were right...it WAS rigged.... |

[/ QUOTE ] Scott Tom is not in charge of anything, has had nothing to do with AP for over a year, and had no access to any confidential data/software. AP itself already told us this in their prior releases. Oh, and while Scott Tom was living in Panama "for some time", he was involved in at least one publicly documented plane mishap in Costa Rica. Nice to know we can still trust AP! |
