this thread is incredible. the funny thing is, mythra is kind of in a double-edged sword situation.. where he's either the biggest idiot alive, or a despicable scammer. either way he loses.

of course the most likely scenario is that he is both.

i will send $100, maybe more to the OP if he pursues legal action against mythra and is successful.

i'm sure a handful of others would do the same.

Mythra, you could gain a tiny bit of respect here if your next post was along the lines of:

“Okay, guys, here’s the truth. Poker has ruined my life. The reason why the first credit card of $140 was declined is because all of my credit cards are maxed due to my gambling problem. I am very sorry for this mess Alex. It was never my intent to scam you out of $2k, but I can’t help myself sometimes. Once I dipped below $2k, I was hoping to win it back and transfer the money, but FT closed my account. I have a problem. I know that now more than ever before. I am going to seek help for my addiction right now… is Cardrunners any good?”

If Op pursues legal action he'll almost certainly get that last $100 back. Restitution is nearly always included as part of a plea bargain in a crime involving a victim. I mean, when mythra's options become pay restitution and get 1 year in jail and 5 years probation, or don't pay restitution and get straight jail for 5 years, which one do you think he chooses?

I can't believe nobody can see the truth. Mythra died in that car accident, and the scammer has been using his identity ever since.

Duh.

i just happened to choose $100 on a whim, i almost said $500.. i might go that high. i'm just talking about how much money i and others would pay to see a conviction here.

Yep. His clock is running out also. Giddyup mythra for your own sake. At this point you might consider sending the OP a bit extra, I'd highly recommend it. Your rent and girlfriend, not so much. Look ahead a level or 2.

Well, I'm off to bed, but I really am concerned for Mythra, we haven't heard from him ina while, and we all know that there is a criminal mastermind out there with unfettered access to Mythra's home, bank account, email, poker accounts, and neteller account. Who's to say what this evil genius may do next.
