My friend had his account compromised, they then logged into his account which he had over $2,500.00 in it at the time, and the sent a 2,500.00 gift certificate to another account. He then cashed in the Gift Certificate and lost the $2,500.00 to some players, which no doubt are his friends, so now they can cash out. When he asked FTP for his hand history, they would not give it to him. Then he told FTP that in your rules you state that any sign of cheating that you will freeze all accounts and funds. And FTP refuses.
You would figure that anyone trying to send a $2,500.00 Gift Certificate that FTP would send them an E-mail and ask him to verify that it was indeed him. But they don't. He figured out his account was compromised when FTP sent him an E-mail asking if he requested that his E-mail addy be changed. He then replied back to FTP and said he never made a request and then they froze his account.
They can send a request if you want to change your email but they cannot do the same when you want to send someone a 2,500.00 gift certificate, how lame is this BS. Anyway everyone beware of the scammers out there. This is going to the Kahnawake Gaming Commission, VIA means of a friend of his family, i will not say what US Senator it is.

Wow, that is pretty serious How did someone get access to his account, did they crack his password or something? I am surprised, and a little worried, that FT's collusion detectors didnt pick up on this. I hope everything works out for him, that is really a bad situation. I'm wondering how much a US Senator can actually do, seeing as Full Tilt is based outside of America. Keep posting on this issue though.
