I was (still am?) a major square who always lost and never withdrew money at all, and they are being a dick over changing the side I was betting on (before the game had started obv). Like I said, I dont know who I was talking to, but I remember the support person was rude and an ass, so probably good chance it was him.
    Refusing to change a bet is actually fairly standard on these online books.
    Yeah. It is just part of the online sports betting culture I guess. Everyone is trying to angle everyone else all the time so if someone asks for a favor you just assume they are trying to angle you and say no.

    My local guy who I play poker with knows I am just a square who sometimes hits the wrong button on my phone and always switches it for me.

    I am hearing reports that 5Dimes is denying that the body found was actually Tony, and that they are "still hoping for his safe return".

    Starting to really look like an intentional vanishing.

    Ok new theory if wife didn't kill him and this is in fact an escape from justice.... wait for it

    The family DID pay ransom and want to prove that pretty hard but what they in fact did was pay TONY and give him start up lay low money in Cuba or ????? Until we meet again bitcoin/cash.

    That's my new theory assuming the body wasn't his.

    Yup. That's what I said on radio, tonight.

    The "ransom" might have been a payment to Tony to use to hide out for awhile.

    https://www.crhoy.com/nacionales/cla...de-sportsbook/

    were the cornerstone in the plan of the criminal organization behind the kidnapping and disappearance of William Sean Creighton, a 43-year-old American owner of a sportsbook located in San Pedro de Montes de Oca, and who was kidnapped on September 24. of 2018.
    In the crime complex, 5 members of a family, several relatives and the 2 traffic policemen participated.
    As described by Walter Espinoza, director of the Judicial Investigation Agency (OIJ), the action of the officers allowed intercepting the victim when he was traveling aboard his vehicle in the Granadilla sector of Curridabat. From there the kidnapping occurred ...
    Of the 12 detainees so far, the 3 alleged leaders who planned the kidnapping stand out. The three are Costa Ricans and fled to Spain. Until this Friday, they remained hidden in the city of Zaragoza: it is a man, his girlfriend and his mother.
    At the moment, the victim of the kidnapping is still missing and the OIJ deploys this Friday a raid related to the case, in the La Trinidad de Moravia sector.
    Who are the alleged leaders of the group?

    This is a 25-year-old named Morales Vega. In addition, his mother -of 45 years- of Vega Aguirre surnames and his sentimental partner of surnames Solís Chaves, 24 years old.
    Morales never had a working relationship with the victim and is believed to have selected his target due to his knowledge of virtual currency and betting issues.
    After committing the kidnapping, Morales fled to Cuba, El Salvador and Spain. In Cuba he met with his mother and his girlfriend to travel to the European continent.
    How did the events happen?

    On the night of September 24, Creigthon was approached while driving through Granadilla de Curridabat.
    Previously, the kidnapper group had guarded the outskirts of the victim's company to design and execute the plan.
    With the help of the traffic police, 4 individuals traveling in a pick-up, including Morales Vega, removed the victim from his car and apparently moved him to La Trinidad de Moravia.
    In that event also participated a man named Vega Aguirre, who is uncle of the main suspect and brother of his mother.
    How much did they ask the family from abroad?

    In principle, they asked for a ransom of $ 5 million. However, in the end the relatives paid around $ 1 million in virtual currency (bitcoins).
    There were 2 contacts after the kidnapping to negotiate the payment. These money transfers were managed through 3 virtual wallets.
    The investigation began on September 25, 2018 when money had already been paid, but the victim had not (or has not) been located.
    Precisely, the tracking of the computers where the money would have been received was vital to tie the case and bind the suspects.
    Who is the 25 year old?

    The group leader is appointed by the OIJ as a young expert in virtual currency and online betting management issues.
    He never worked for Creighton, however it is believed that because of his knowledge of the subject to which the victim's company is dedicated, he opted to put the magnifying glass on him.
    Why would they have taken the victim to Moravia?

    There lives a woman with last names Aguirre Leal, 71, who is the grandmother of Morales Vega and mother of Vega Aguirre.
    His house would have served as the first captivity site to hold the victim. The older adult was also arrested today.
    While that happened, the car of the victim was transported by another of the kidnappers - surnamed Ford - who left him after a crash in San Isidro de Heredia.
    What did the alleged kidnappers do in Spain?

    It is believed that the main suspects were constantly moving between different places. There they had in their power thousands of euros in cash and documentation that relates them to the sending of electronic money and the mining of the 'bitcoins'.
    What was the mother of the alleged leader doing?

    It is believed that he played an active role in the crime, as he would have followed up with the victim outside the sportsbook.
    Also, I would have received part of the virtual money as payment for the supposed release.
    Where were the raids made?

    There were 9 actions that allowed the capture of an equal number of defendants in places such as Cartago, La Unión, Guadalupe, Moravia, Santo Domingo de Heredia and Limón. In Zaragoza, Spain. Three people were arrested.
    What was found in the raids in Costa Rica?

    Firearms, cell phones, tablets, computers, vehicles, SIM cards, annotated papers and shopping vouchers; in addition to cash in dollars.
    The pick-up that would have been used to kidnap the American was confiscated days ago.
    And what was found in Spain?

    In Zaragoza, at least € 4,000 was placed in cash, cards used for virtual currency transactions, an accounting book and electronic devices.
    Who are the 12 detainees?

    Morales Vega: 25 years old and alleged leader of the group.

    Well, this is from TODAY in the English Costa Rican newspaper...and IT IS QUITE BLOODY TELLING!!!:


    (Walter) Espinoza (director of Judiciary Costa Rica's Investigative Police - OIJ) added that throughout the whole investigation the priority has been to locate the victim, however, at this point ***Creighton’s location or situation is unknown***.


    Whoa hoa...NOT SAYING HE'S NECCESSARILY DEAD!

    And another article from that same paper:

    Espinoza affirmed that they are still trying to locate Creighton, who is 43-years-old, a native of the US but also a Costa Rican citizen, he is married to a Costa Rican and has two children.

    https://news.co.cr/10-people-arreste...mestony/78377/

    ...so basically the story about his body being found is now being confirmed FAKE NEWS by the Investigating authorities. They are saying they don't know where he is.

    INSANE.

    These Costa Rican sites are garbage and also stuff gets lost in translation.

    But in plain English, it looks like this 25-year-old guy Morales Vega knew enough about bitcoin and 5Dimes to realize Tony had a ton of bitcoin (or had access to quickly get it) because the sportsbook was using it for deposits/withdrawal.

    So he figured he could put together a scheme to kidnap Tony, demand $5m in ransom to return him, and then he could flee the country and cash out the bitcoin elsewhere.

    He hired some corrupt low-level cops to pull Tony over, and then some thugs he hired would force Tony out of the car and kidnap him.

    Tony was brought to Morales' 71-year-old grandma's house, and moved elsewhere.

    They squeezed about $1 million in bitcoin out of Tony's wife, but couldn't get anywhere near the $5 million they wanted.

    At this point, Morales fled the country with his girlfriend and mom, who were also involved in the planning.

    However, due to the fact that bitcoin isn't truly anonymous, Morales' received ransom was tracked, and he was located in various places cashing it out. Eventually they located him in Spain, and had him arrested there.

    Now 12 people involved in the scheme have been arrested, but Tony hasn't been found.

    He's probably at the bottom of the ocean or in a shallow grave somewhere.

    The end.
