    Player accuses acr of not helping when account compromised

    Interesting thread on 2 plus 2 player claimed someone hacked his account for 10k and he even suspected might have been someone from acr mgmt. Claimed never to have played 25 50 plo where monies went missing at 4am. Ceo came into thread and stated op played on the same machine that funds where lost on and wasn't hijacked. Op claimed never played 25 50 plo turns out won 8k at those stakes previous to losing then claimed lost money on company laptop.

    Winning reps claim they have alternate means to check computers and where player played from other then isp. Can these sites verify machine computer when you give them access to computer to download the site?

    Pretty sure they record your computer's MAC address on login.

    Software is run as admin so anything goes. As an example, we use Microsoft System Center Operations Manager to track tons of details on individual devices that are part of our environment. Theoretically the poker software can extract whatever information it has to access to if designed.

    Pretty hard to take someone seriously that claims to have never played 25-50 PLO when it turns out that he had.

    Yeah. I just finished reading the whole thread. His story doesn't add up and that is the key reason (among many)

    Yeah, without even reading the 2+2 thread, the story sounds like BS.

    Don't bother. OP avoided key details. I posted this

    OP has failed to prove his story. Too many gaps and coincidences. Good game. Goodbye

    - he has not addressed how he ran up his account in regards to already playing 25/50

    -he accidentally left out staying at Marriott( he mentions it later after IP records that make it obvious)

    -he didn't seem concerned about his computer being hacked till days into the thread mentioning it was reimaged (odd)

    -he didn't want to chat on skype (though he could be a technophobe despite working for an IT company)

    -it's obvious WPN knows it was the same computer (yes you can grab MAC address, etc through poker software)

    It doesn't add up for OP. I have a hard time getting past all of these items together but mostly have a hard time with his repeated posts but failure to explain how he won the $$ in the first place

    All should be mindful that WPN simply can't or shouldn't publically reveal their methods of security and detection. Sure that's great info for us to hear but it also is info that can be used by hackers. It shouldn't be public. I suspect that is what WPN was willing to offer privately.

    The mistake by the customer service rep is unfortunate but irrelevant
    I think OP is done posting now. If It gets interesting I'll chime back in here. Unless my attention span falters.
