Scammed by 2p2 account LerkEr...Beware

[ShannonShorr]

Sigh. I posted in the Person 2 Person transfer thread in HSNL today that I was looking to unload UltimateBet money. A little while after posting I got a PM from 2p2 account LerkEr. His message said that he had UB money he wanted to get rid of, so I assumed he had misread my post, as I was the one looking to send UB money. In his message he said he'd like for me to send to his FTP account, USCPhildo. USCPhildo is obviously a very proven online MTT player, so this is where he got me. I told him I was looking to send UB and he said he would buy the UB for PS money and 3% vig, which I was happy to do and had stated in my post in the p2p thread. We agreed to do $10,000 for $9,700 in 5 $2000 installments. He gave me the UB name "PlzDontCRMe" on UB and I sent first. He gave me the first name Arun. So, I sent the first $2k installment and never heard back from him. If I wasn't such a fish I would've researched and realized Arun isn't USCPhildo's first name. I've emailed UB four times in the last 4 hours and am yet to get any kind of response.

Just thought I'd let everyone know, so the same thing doesn't happen to you all.

Yeah, that sums it up. Basically you sent 2k to someone you only know through 10 minutes of forum and possibly IM interaction? That seems risk free.

Also you are about to please to enjoy UB's customer service.

you guys have too much money

[21SuicideKing21]

yeah guy loses 2k, so lets bash him. guy obv made a mistake, so why do we have to kick him when he is down?

sucks op just hope this guy gets what he deserves

He is not making this post to have people call him an idiot. He made the post to warn others to not make the same mistake. Some of you people need to take it easy

no1s kicking him. i feel bad for him but he obviously has no value for money as a result of having too much of it. he
should be more careful with money i feel bad for anyone who gets scammed buts its amazing to me that all these high stakes guys are smart enough to make millions of dollars but seem to be stupid enough that every week or so one of them gets scammed.

they should enforce strict trasfer policies upon themselves so they dont do thngs like this. once again im not insulting him and feel bad for him
