shahmat,

Where were you when this was happening? Would someone have access to your PC? It seems odd that this could happen over several days without you knowing. I would guess the person who did this knew you. Though he would probably have to know something about poker, too.

What stakes do you normally play? Because it seems like they knew how much was in your account.

I hate reading stuff like this. This stinks, sorry dude.

Thanks, ya it's brutal. I think I may have been home when this happened, I'm not 100% sure, I'm still waiting to get the hand history details from full tilt so I can find out exactly when everything happened. They have been very slow on giving this to me. I did go out Friday and Saturday night for the majority of the night so I may have been gone at those times. But Full Tilt has told me that they logins didn't come from my IP Address but rather from quite a few different ones, in different parts of the country(Canada). I usually play 25/50NL, but had played very little this month on Full Tilt.

I missed your story, do you have a link somewhere? Did you end up giving back the money the hacker earned for you (He played that hand well :P) or you keep it? Just being curious, I appreciate any responses

Well the majority of the story is at the beginning of this post... No, I never saw any of the money, I missed all of the in between happenings, when I logged on the accunt was empty, Full Tilt is still investigating.

How did the hacker withdraw $ out from your account? What kind of method did he choose without having to leave his details?

[Kevroc]

If I remember correctly, I dont think he withdrew anything. I think he played high limits with it and possibly lost monies to regular players and a colluder somewhere in the mix.
