The only one I've seen say it is Peter DC on 4, turned out to be cleatus.
They said his name was Mike Esposito and he has kids.
Now they did say he had a rich girlfriend who was known in poker world so that must be the one w/ the mansion.
Maybe this recent accusation was a false alarm, and "Mike Esposito" was actually another scammer who just happened to have a similar M/O to Peter.
I believed it was Peter because of the claim that Peter was suddenly seen around Vegas around the time this happened, but that could have easily been a coincidence.
Peter's rich girlfriend with the mansion was NOT a well known poker player. She did play a bit of poker, but her last tournament cash was in 2004, and I don't think she's really into the cash game scene, either.
She was best known for being a pioneer in the 900/976 phone sex industry in the '80s. That's where she made her fortune.
I believe she's in her mid-50s now, which is probably why Peter was able to take advantage of her. Peter apparently charmed her, and she was probably flattered that a much younger man was taking such interest in her, and probably blinded herself to the fact that he was in it for her money.
