Why didn't you just keep the $740 and not send the WU payment? He would have a hard time getting it back off you [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I had the same offer, but I told them I was a bit short because I'm helping out a Nigerian friend.

I'm glad to see that evolution still works. I hope that $740 you lost prevents you from reporducing and passing on your stupidity to future generations.

After first reading the OP, I thought this comment was too harsh.. after finishing the thread, I realized its the best post here.

I think it is obvious to most that this person who received the WU, if this money was legit, would have never have trusted someone that they did not know to trust this money would be sent. Many of you want to put the blame on the poker room. This was an obvious scam, it is not Poker Stars fault the OP fell for it. This is one of the oldest poker room scams. It's as easy as that. I'm really confused as to why this drags on.

What if the OP had received a transfer from Neteller? Is a Neteller transfer guaranteed cleared funds?

A B&M casinos atleast I know money won at the table is mine and no one will take it back from me. There is no protection in online poker. Pokerstars needs to assure money deposited on the site has been done so legally before they release it for play.

How is this relevant? You DIDN'T win this money playing at the tables. The correct analogy would be that at a B&M casino you sell chips to someone. You then find out that the money he bought them with is fake notes - and are now making a thread complaining that the casino won't swap the fake notes for real ones.
