Do you have proof of the site that hired the attacker?
No, I only know who the hacker is and the IP of where the payment came from.Quote:

I see some dates on the right side, which indicate... times of attacks?
Question: How can you prove to ACR (or anyone else) that you're legit, and not just fabricating a story for 10 BTC?
For what it's worth, in my gut I believe you, but I'd like to hear your answer to the above.
I only know the hacker and the IP that the emails came from. Chances are WPN will never find solid proof of what site. They can check the IP and make an educated guess or outbid.Quote:

The online poker site America's Cardroom was hit earlier this week with a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack timed to disrupt a major tournament prompting the company CEO to consider putting a 10-bitcoin bounty out to discover if the attack was launched by a competitor.
America's Cardroom and its Winning Poker Network began tweeting early on August 31 that the site was being hit with a DDoS attack and within 60 minutes the attack caused the cancellation of a poker tournament. Two days later it was struck again with another tournament being forced to close. The site has since postponed another major tournament until it can put more resources in place to mitigate any future attacks.
America's Cardroom CEO Phil Nagy took the unusual step of talking about the attacks and their impact on his site in a YouTube video. Here he mentions that his site had undergone 24 separate DDoS attacks in the last week putting a huge dent in his operation.
Nagy said such attacks have been going on for years, usually taking place when a large tournament is scheduled, and in most cases a ransom is demanded, which he refuses to pay. In some of the attacks some claiming to be the perpetrator would enter one of the poker chat rooms and announce that an attack was about to take place. However, just prior to one of the latest attacks the unknown person said he was being paid by a competitor to take down America's Cardroom
Nagy responded to this news with a combination of disbelief and an idea to get to the bottom of the problem.
“I'm seriously considering offering a reward, 10 bitcoin or something really big to anyone who can bring me proof who has been ordering these attacks,” he said, adding the proof would have to be on a prior attack.
Maya Horowitz, Checkpoint's threat intelligence group manager, told SC Media that DDoS attacks launched by competitors are becoming more common as are those that ask for a ransom.
America's Cardroom is an online poker site that allows U.S. citizens to play using bitcoin and other payment methods to help avoid federal regulations that ban online poker in most of the country.
The dates in the original screenshot are likely in British (aka proper) date format e.g dd/mm/yyyy. So the screenshot is showing dates all in the first week of September 2017.
