Default Credit Players

i want to give you guys heads up...this might be a scam. I sent him an email since I been looking for local bookie and was unsuccesful. So I decide give this guy a try. Person name Mike called me and explained everything as far as how it works and even have website where I can place the bet. So I asked him for $2500 credit(something which I can afford to pay back if I lose) and everything was all smooth. He asked me what I want for the password. So I gave it to him. He then told me he will email me after he set up my account once he gets into his office. This was almost 3 hours ago. So I tried to call him back from the number he called and automated system says cellular phone is no longer in service. Mayb he was trying to get my password so he can try to hack into offshore accounts and have access to my account? I don't know what this person's intention was but just be aware. I didn't give him any of my personal information so not really sure what he was trying to get out of this.

Well, are you planning on settling if you lose?

when I talked to him over the phone, he was very straight up..... I have no intention to **** up somebody by not paying him when he is being honest and straight up with me. they pay once a week so I am just going to try to win couple of thousands to see if they really pay me or not.... If I lose, I have no problem sending him $2500 since I was going to open new offshore account anyway and play it. What's the difference between sending money to offshore or sending the money to Mike IF I do lose? nada

CP i can assure you Mike is not trying to hack into anyones acct. thats almost funny lol. If you do not feel comfortable dont do buisness with him pretty easy, but dont accuse someone of trying to steal from you with out having all the facts. thats ridiculous. I have had ZERO problems. and you can check my NBA threads from last year I bet pretty big and have no issues.

posting your bookies email address on a public betting forum is a great idea

I was concerned for you College Pro (like why do you think the guy would possibly pay you?) but then I saw you were the guy who charged back a book and was threatened by collection for it.

So I do not think there are any innocents in this thread. Let the fun begin for sure. Let's see who stiffs who, and how.....

I thought you were Mike?? so if you are not Mike, who are you?? I didn't say he was trying to hack into my acct. I just wrote that as one of example as to possible intention which wasn't in this case. so don't come here and say I am trying to accuse someone for stealing!!!

Yes, if someone is soliciting $10k credit accounts to random forum members, it is a scam. No need for the suspense here.
