The 1st posting includes chat transcripts which appear legit between the 2 and some FB postings. This came out within the last few hours. Apparently these guys were plotting to and may have in fact compromised other players computers being able to actually see their desktops when playing against them. Ironic that this is the same guy who posted all about Lauren Kling when they broke up.
You should copy paste here. Things over there have a habit of getting deleted/censored, no?
Now that is a good read. Txs. Does anyone know any of the players they mention hacking? Let's see if they have any records or memories of playing this guy.
Here is op's post on 2+2
1st post from cbt5000
This disturbing conversation between Matt (Adz124) Marafioti and Samer Rahman was sent to me via e-mail from a very reliable source who chooses to remain unnamed. I feel compelled to share it with the community to warn others who may have had their computers compromised by either of the two. *I don't want to get involved, however, I can't sit on this information knowing that people may have been victimized by these *******s. Does anyone know anything else about this Samer kid? This is his facebook: *http://www.facebook.com/samer.rahman

Ok bro dont stress and you dont need to worry. Be smart!!
I havent harm you !! Dont be stupid!!
Just call me if you feel better.
Started following ADZ's tweets when he had his meltdown regarding his break-up with gf LK.
This was followed by a pretty vicious argument on twitter with JC Alvarado regarding an unpaid 5yr old prop bet.
While this was certainly an entertaining read, it's safe to say Matt (ADZ) is a wannabe high roller, tough guy but it really just seems he's an attention seeking, lost kid.
The 2+2 accusations could be 100% true or 100% fake, either is believable considering the many people he's surely pissed off in the recent past.
In before Druff is threatened and this thread is taken down. As is the m/o of Samar according to a few posters in the now deleted thread.
Here are a few of the posts that I captured. I happened to be reading it at the time it was removed
From Kevmath posting on 2+2 in a probably-soon-to-be-deleted thread: "The first thread about this issue was deleted at the OP's request."
What a bunch of crap. Long live PFA.
Indeed. Im even more glad we got the word out as soon as we did and next time I will definitely C&P the OP since its now missing off 2+2. If the original thread was removed not because 2+2 did it officially but because the OP requested it adds credency that #1 It probably was likely true and the OP is somebody well known to both #2 Somebody suggested it might in fact have been Lauren Kling who posted it to get revenge on Matt for what he did to her on Twitter (as they say revenge is a dish best served cold and hell hath no fury as a woman scorned). This thing has legs and as one reply showed there have been accusations against Samar before regarding similar types of stunts. I also noted that some people posted possible criminal connections to one or both and if true it could be why the OP was "forced" to have it removed by one or both of the scamming bastards.Quote:

I still think this came from Lauren Kling herself who copied it off a computer she and matt shared (my guess is the idiot left himself logged into skype and she found the convo and C&Pd it in an email to herself, and that others have suggested this was the real reason behind their very nasty break up.)
I copied it & saved the OP just for that reason as I'm sure others have. It's not going to be lost.Quote:

Intersting, the thread has been changed now on two plus two, fewer posts now. I wonder if they took out some of the posts or what.Quote:

Confirmed that apparently Lauren Kling was indeed the OP as Matt admitted as such last night at a cash game going on, in addition another poster noted that it had to have been Matt in the chat logs because of his apparent typing style.
Didn't read much of this but I saw on twitter that Matt mararriati admitted that the logs weren't all made up. He may have deleted that. Isn't that pretty much the same as admitting guilt? Also, big props to Lauren Kling. This is how you do revenge. She didn't just make some tilt tweets about how small his dick is like a lot of broads would do. She went for the head shot and is really trying to ruin him.
TL : DR
This cant possibly be true, a certain failsite owner had Matt on his show a coupla weeks ago and that owner slobbered all over Matt's cock like nobody's business.
Just read the entire thread on 4, this has to be the headline topic for PFA radio next week.
So much cray shit in that thread it isn't even funny.
Swedish motorcycle gangs, hackers, all type of cray business.
Matthew Marafioti @Adzizzy
@brianchastings @Kevmath I have never been able to figure out how to post on 2+2. I can barely burn a CD. I asked someone 2 load iPods 4 me.

Here's the updated cliffs from the 2p2 thread on this story:
Quote:
Cliffs (Long)
- Anonymous source posts chat log by Matt Marafioti (ADZ) & alleged hacker Samer Rahman where they discuss planting trojans into other high stakes players comps & cheating them out of $$$.
- ADZ discovers trojans on his computers likely planted by Samer. It appears ADZ is a target & pawn in said scam to cheat others & then get cheated himself
- ADZ confirms via twitter he is friends with Samer & alleged conversation took place but was doctored
- Mr. Hickey posts on behalf of "reliable source" claims Matt has stated Samer is responsible for several other hackings & operate the Alladin account on FTP
- Samer is an IT expert known to have connections to Mohammed Kowssarie aka TerrorofSweden & Fast_Freddy who hacked Patrik Antonius & Johnny Lodden for mils. Samer & Mohammed are found to have strong ties to Swedish Bandidos, a violent biker gang
- Becomes known many HS swedes have been scammed by said gang & threatened in person. Thread documenting cheating on a Swedish poker forum apparently deleted by OP at his request due to said threats
- This is no secret throughout the Swedish poker, swedish poker players are rightfully scared of the criminals
- ADZ goes off on twitter & blows up, denies various accusations, people lol @ him & those that know him IRL confirm he's an doucher, scumbag, cheat, multiaccounter etc. Virtually noone defends ADZ
- aggo receives PM from unnamed source who won't post in public bc it would "send him to his grave" stating Mohammed's older brother is or used to be President of Swedish Bandidos, later discovered by Matacow Mohammed finance a restaurant with President of Bandidos Mc Sweden Mehdi Seyyed, restaurant is later seized by state as assetts of Bandidos ciminal activities
- Owner of PokerListings was killed by Swedish Hells Angels in order to avoid giving testimony against former business partner.
- More info posted, biker gangs in Sweden are v. prominent & feared especially in the poker community, especially the Bandidos
- Samer Rahman posts ITT, denies any wrongdoing, claims his computer was hacked & is being framed, claims to be a public figure in Sweden, contacts Mat Sklansky & asks thread to be removed
- People lol @ Samer's response & immediately tear it to shreds. During initial skype log Matt requests a video chat which is assumed to have taken place making Samer's denials impossible
-Thread is taken down at Samer's request & pending review... 3 hours later thread reopened because it is decided many of the accusations are credibly
- pokervangelist reports ADZ was @ Bellagio last night & claims ex gf Lauren Kling had to be anonymous source who sent out the chat logs
- Jas posts who was scammed out of 260k+ on pokerstars mostly by the accts saman_r, and westisbestis who played extremely similar with insanely loose stats. He discovered a trojan on his comp shortly after & had it reformatted with dif security, 3 days later he find saman_r playing 1/2 plo, asks if he wants to play 25/50 hu & saman insta leaves the table
- Many new accounts presumably from Swedish players hiding their identities post ITT confirming much of the speculation regarding organized crime's violence & influence to online poker & overall culture in Sweden
- Picture is posted by new acct with 1 post shows ADZ & Raman playing online side by side in a hotel suite during EPT San Remo in 2010. In the same pic is Zoran Zoric who is accused participant in Casino Cosmopol scam 2011 in Gothenburg. Zoric was convicted for assault the same year & is out bail awaiting trial for the Casino Cosmopol incident.
- NVG asks Swedish players for more info while maintaining anonymity, relevant posts from new accts are given more credence than in the past on 2+2 & lots of relevant info is posted.
Throughout the thread other posters chime in mostly discussing ADZ & his personality, the validity of original chat logs, Saman R & mohammed K, hacking, & Swedish Mafia (not the dj's!)
Did my best to cover everything I could up to this point. Apologies for any errors.
That was a private DM log and what blew the top off the whole thing.
Of course Adisease (that is a good one I got off 4, fitting) claimed the logs were phony...all lies blah blah blah.
The bottom line is he was involved in compromising high stakes players computers, and was probably getting a commission for all the money that was stolen, or possibly even more.
I swear if I ever saw this rich little trust fund faggot I would smash his fucking face in, just for laughs. Kind of like what happened to him a little while back.
I honestly look at the High Stakes community completely differently now. I used to think a lot of these guys were just nice at teh pokers, but in reality they are all just rich little trust fund babies blowing the money they inherited claiming they are winning players. Adisease is a perfect example.
Wow. What a shitty time for Druff to be away from the forum. This is some seriously crazy shit!
Two different chats from 2007, with ADZ cheating in HIS OWN WORDS.

I think what's going on in the 2plus2 thread is a tragedy. Poor MM is getting bludgeoned so hard in that thread/twitter, got his supposed close friends straight snitching, people wishing death and physical harm on him, life ruined, threatening legal action while the real perps are barely mentioned and totally forgotten about.
I'm sooo close to going into the 2p2 lions den and giving MM a fierce defense, but I don't want to get banned again. They don't want to talk about Pokerstars/FTP security reviewing their HH's and giving the all clear. They don't want to debate HUD usage w/me. The Hi stakes players/ cry babies don't want to discuss what they all need AIM open while they're playing/ post transcripts. They want to cherry pick the posted IM's chats etc to make MM look guilty and treat them with 100% credibility but they don't want to talk about MM and samerr's allegations that all the high stakes are cheaters and all share info and can't be trusted although that's in the exACT SAME CHAT LOGS.
Fuck those high stakes douche bags. They clean out unsuspecting players for the entire life savings w/ HUD's/HH sharing/Maybe even hole card info/have pieces of each with conflict of interest issues for years but they cry when they're the one who's unsuspecting.
OTOH fuck mm, he's a major leAGUE tool box and very well may deserve all the heat he's taking I just don't get how they fooled Pokerstars security. Time will tell.
Oh and Druff what's your thoughts on TLK and his 33 v 44 hand.
Just getting caught up on this epic story.
Will definitely cover it on Tuesday's radio.
In the meantime...
Let's discuss TheTerrorist/TerrorofSweden/Fast_Freddie, aka Mohamad Kowssarie.
His name has popped back up due to accusations of ties to Samar Rahman.
Here is a picture of him:
http://edge1.pokerlistings.com/asset...arie-12032.jpg
He is accused of having strong ties to the Swedish biker gang that is said to have killed the original owner of Pokerlistings.
He is also said to have hacked Johnny Lodden and Patrik Antonius, robbing them of millions.
In early 2007, Lodden gave this interview regarding accusing Kowssarie of cheating him:
http://www.bankrollboost.com/poker_b...e-of-cheating/
Here is part of the article:
If you're having trouble following the above, F_F refers to "Fast_Freddie", aka Kowssarie. TLK refers to TexasLimitKing, who absolutely destroyed the limit hold 'em games on Full Tilt (including something like 250k versus our own Dustin "neverwin" Woolf), and then mysteriously vanished. Many conspiracy theories have been thrown around since then.Quote:
Originally Posted by Johnny Lodden
In the above interview with Lodden, he claimed that TLK left poker because he discovered Kowssarie's cheating, outed it, and was fearful for his life.
Here's a vanity video Kowssarie made regarding his big run on the Fast_Freddie account:
http://www.theterrorist.org/flashfilmen.html
And now here's an odd post where a guy on 2+2 claims that the Swedish Bandidos (the aforementioned biker gang) had extorted money out of Kowssarie, possibly leading to his "need" to cheat. Again, it's just a theory, but an interesting one:
Quote:
The strange part in the Kowssarie - Bandidos story is that he truly seem to be a victim of extortion.
I have heard it confirmed by one of the extortionist who visited Kowssarie a couple of years ago that they did infact pressure him for money. ( a cpl of yers ago i met this guy who when he found out i played poker had to brag about visiting kowssarie and extorting him, they were four guys total, did not think much of it then but reading the article pretty much confirmed it)
I can not believe that this would happen if he in fact was a close and personal friend with mehdi seyyed. It is not unthinkable that the friendship part is a fabrication and that the initial extortion led to a forced co-operation as shown in the article linked to earlier.
Maybe this is what got Kowssarie desperate enough to hack.
Anyway this shows why many swedish poker players have kept a low profile through the years, kowsarrie could be a victim of some sad circumstances but still guilty and dispicable ofcourse.
But i can still muster empathy for the difficult situation he must have been in, it is time that these Swedish gangsters influence on online hs poker is fully chartered.
Back to Samer.
He is being accused of sending trojans to people via AIM, which enable him to see people's holecards.
This would not be difficult to accomplish. The infected players would have to do something stupid (like click a link in AIM and then not question things when it doesn't do what is expected), but there are plenty of non-tech-savvy high stakes players who would fall for such a thing.
Anyway, 2+2 is filled with a lot of debate as to the names of accounts used by Samer.
Two of the account names being thrown around are regista8 and BAD_GATEWAY, both on Full Tilt.
http://www.pokertableratings.com/ful...earch/regista8
http://www.pokertableratings.com/ful...ch/BAD_GATEWAY
Here is regista8's blogspot from 2006:
http://regista8.blogspot.com/
The profile on this account identifies regista8 being 26 as of November 25, 2006. and from Sweden.
Nearly 6 years later, he would likely be 32.
Samer Rahman is 32, and from Sweden.
Here is Samer:

Here are some past postings regarding BAD_GATEWAY:

After talking to some people about the players, they said that they had downloaded something linked to them. This was followed by gruesome sessions where they were absolutely brutalized by a few fishy players.
Jas11 (jasjas11 on stars) got an aim from paymenot (stars sn) linking him to a video that never played (was just some .exe dl or something). immediately after he got crushed by the accounts: bad_gateway and alladiin on ftp. On stars: saman_R and WestisBestis on stars. saman_R and westis are low stakes plo 6max players that decided it was time to take a 25/50 nl shot. Jas says that paymenot even encouraged him to play bad_gateway, saying he was really bad at plo ect. Jas thinks that pokerfatman is a multi-acc of bad_gateway, but that isnt confirmed. He took his comp to a tech-savvy friend and found out there was a remote-desktop trojan on his computer and his comp was compromised.

Kadabra says he thinks someone tampered with his computer during PCA. Right after the bahamas he got crushed by bad_gateway and the hands were very suspicious.
Note that jasj11 was one of the bigger losers to BAD_GATEWAY.

Here is another thread where BAD_GATEWAY is accused of hacking:
http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/28...2009-a-423231/
Interestingly, Matt Marafioti was also said to be one of BAD_GATEWAY's victims (for about 70k).
Also note that the very suspiciously named saman_R account (on Stars) was also thought to be cheating at the time.
Here is trambopoline's account of a live encounter with Samer:
Interesting (but unrelated) side note:Quote:
Long story short I met samer at wsope 2009 London. Introduced himself as regista8. Nice guy took me and 2 other poker players to a club got bottle service and he insisted on paying for the night. Talked a bit on aim, I believe I said something to regista at the tables and his response was weird enough that I said something to him on aim about it and he admitted he no longer played that account but previously shared it with his buddy. At some point in future while playing he messages me on aim and says something to the effect of 'hey I'm bad_gateway on FTP now just so u know but keep it quiet'. I prob got cheated at some point but like to believe that there's a small small chance he decided not to cheat me. I never felt compromised by anyone particular but who knows, especially since I can no longer use PTR as a guideline
Trambopoline was one of the bigger UB victims, and I specifically heard his screen name mentioned on the infamous Travis Makar tapes, where someone (Greg Pierson?) was talking about how he was taken for 177k. He will be appearing (along with me and several others) in the documentary about the UB scandal, to be released soon by Scott "ElevenGrover" Bell.
The infamous William Reynolds screen capture:

Here is a clip of William Reynolds talking glowingly about Marafioti:

Here is Randy Dorfman's tweet regarding his claim that Marafioti admitted that Lauren Kling was the one who leaked the chat capture:

Here are some Swedish articles regarding Kowssarie's ties to the Bandidos:
http://www.gp.se/nyheter/goteborg/1....till-krogsprit
A guy on 2+2 translated/summarized:
Quote:
In short it describes how Bandidos came over a restaurant in Gothenburg with the help of Mohammed. He bought the place really cheap, after a series of attacks against said restaurant. These attempted arsons scared away other potential byers. Police spotted MK several times in the same car as Mehdi Seyyed, President of Bandidos Sweden. After MK purchased the place, all of the bouncers was bandidosmembers. Other signs also pointed in the direction that MK only was the owner on paper, but the place was indeed run by the bandidos. On these grounds, the swedish court decided to not allow any alcolic beverages to be sold.
Another article about Kowssarie:
http://www.gp.se/nyheter/goteborg/1....-ar-orattvist-
Again, translated/summarized by a guy on 2+2:
Quote:
Follow-up article featuring interview with Mohammed. In short he says that it is unfair, claims that the restaurant really is owned by him and that the fact that all bouncers are members of the gang is pure coincidental. He is not trying to hide his connection with the President of the gang, quote "I know Mehdi Seyyed as a friend, not a criminal. I know his family and i know his relatives."
But then it gets REALLY interesting. The journalist asks him about a not so friendly encounter of this gang, that seems to have occured in 2006.
"Three years ago, he was robbed by 4 members of Bandidos filthy crew, the X-team. They stormed into his apartment and forced him under treat to move 320 000 SEK to a bank account. One of his friends eventually moved the money.
He told the police that he earlier had been robbed af another 500 000 SEK, and the background to all of this was his sucess as a poker player. The 4 men was sent to jail for a couple of years for these robberies.
Journalist:The fact that you after these events go in as a financer for a restaurant business that has connections to Bandidos could be interpreted as you standing in debt to the gang?
MK: Absolutely not. It speaks against itself that I am in debt, it was I who was the victim. I knew Mehdi Seyyed before all of that happened."
And do the Bandidos have a branch in Vegas?!

My impressions thus far:
- Marafioti is likely guilty of either cheating or at least conspiring to cheat.
- It seems very possible that Rahman was using Marafioti as a schlub he could manipulate, and in fact was going to cheat him, too.
- It seems likely that Marafioti told Randy Dorfman that Lauren Kling was the one who leaked the chat capture. However, that doesn't make Kling necessarily guilty. It just means that Marafioti was blaming her. I have mixed feelings as to whether or not Kling was behind this. I'm actually leaning towards NO.
- It seems clear to me that Samer Rahman was indeed looking at people's hole cards and cheating them. I believe that he was behind accounts regista8 (which probably wasn't actually his), BAD_GATEWAY (a name which was a play on Johnny Lodden's screen name "bad_ip", who was probably cheated by Samer's friend Fast_Freddie), SAMAN_R (very close to his real name of Samer Rahman), and likely several others.
- It seems likely that Mohamad Kowssarie, aka Fast_Freddie/TerrorOfSweden, cheated Lodden and Antonius in the same fashion that Samer Rahman did.
- It seems likely that Kowssarie has ties to the violent Swedish Bandidos biker gang. However, it is possible that he was pressured into those ties.
- I believe that Kowssarie and Rahman are accomplices in these cheating situations.
- I don't think that TexasLimitKing cheated on Full Tilt. I think that his infamous 4-high call was a misclick where he didn't notice his pair was counterfeited. However, I do believe he was cheated by Kowssarie and left poker shortly after this happened.
I am kind of waiting for the next wave of players to be exposed who were hacked and then turned into cheaters themselves. I can see a lot of these kids who were riding high, and then devastated, being easily manipulated if the hacker gave them a chance to recoup their money from others. If you just lost $200k to a hacker and you're sitting in the US, and are contacted by the hacker, do you expose him? Or do you jump at the chance to recoup you money from others and improve your online image which translates into a higher profile, much higher coaching rates, etc? I'm not saying that's the case here, but something I see coming out eventually.
Seeing someone like Brad Booth, does anyone doubt, if approached after the fact, that he would have been party to such a thing if it meant getting out of debt? I think that's fairly certain. They already have your money on a different continent most of the time, with no legal recourse, and I can see most players choosing not to expose a guy and recoup their money as a viable option. Would allow the hacker to split with player and make more while the player recoups his cash, and the hacker needs known guys to access the other high-limit players. That Terror of Sweden kid being possibly coerced by an Iranian national biker into hacking, putting businesses in his name, and hiring a staff full of his fellow Bandidos makes the UIGEA's claim of possible terrorist funding by poker a little less absurd.
Cheating like this is the main reason I don't think online poker will ever be regulated throughout the United States.
Ya I used to be on the side that TLK was a cheat. Now after all of this coming out I can see that he prob was a victimQuote:

Matt Marafioti is my fucking hero.
Not because he is a great poker player.
But because after talking all that shit,
he is still fucking Lauren Kling up her hairy asshole.
:applause
These guys got cheated because Kowssarie would chat with them on AIM or some other messenger, and then get them to click a link to install a trojan.Quote:

For example, the conversation would go something like this:
Kowssarie: Dude you should see the hot piece of ass I've been fucking this past week!
Lodden: U got a pic?
Kowssarie: I think so, hang on....
[File transfer: jennifer-tao2.jpg.exe - Click to accept]
(Lodden clicks)
Lodden: Hey I clicked it and nothing happened.
Kowssarie: Really? Pic works for me. Fuck. Ok let me check and I'll get back to you.
Lodden: All right no biggie.
Kowssarie: Oh well fuck it, hey bro wana play some hu on Prima?
Lodden: Ok I guess, let's go.
The above is a made-up conversation, but is an example of how you can get infected by being socially engineered and not even remember.
That would explain why Micon never wins.... He got infected by accepting a picture of Brandon's hot piece of a$$.....
Wait, there is an Iranian Biker gang? In Sweden? Poker? Wha?
ADZ always seemed to me he wanted more of the spotlight, he even did a profile of a video on Canadian poker players on the CBC. Yet after this, my friend at TMZ tries to holler at him via DM, and he's silent.
And we all know what silence is in the poker world.
Here is the picture of him and Samer Rahman together, with a guy convicted of assault (Zoran Zoric) in Sweden holding the camera:

Strangely, a story like this imo is scarier than UB and FTP in terms of regulation.
UB and FTP are strong arguments for regulation. Having Middle Eastern nationals installing trojans and moving money around via poker is a bad omen for international player pools. And even on a US only regulated site, is there a way to prevent this? I understand the key difference is a perpetrator would be open to prosecution, and that's big, but can any site ascertain that this couldn't happen on a regulated site? I don't have the technical expertise to comment, but I just don't like the feel of this story and I frankly would almost like to see it go away.
besides all the other evidence, just watching that video alone makes me convinced he's a cheat...and a douche of epic proportions. I bet he's also broke, at least in terms of liquidity.Quote:

It is going to be a pain in the neck, but I am weighing the risks. If I were a high stakes player I might just do a dedicated computer with only the poker platforms on it, and everything else on a seperate computer.
