    Do not try to extort your fellow SBR posters!

    A long time poster sent this PM message to another long time poster today.

    A heads up for other scammers, your PMs are monitored.


    Do you have anything to say in your defense before the ban hammer Grivas_Digeni?






    In case English isn't your best language, here's the message in Spanish:


    Tienes que contactarme hoy. De lo contrario, su secreto será revelado al público.


    You cashed out 40k + bet points through your 'USA Central' guy. Nice. If you play your cards right, I'll help you to cash out another 200k. In fact I will be your exclusive bet points agent from now on. I charge a very reasonable fee.

    If you do not contact me this will be made public. You've played the same game for years and I have been paying attention for just over a year now. I'm surprised no-one busted you yet. You can do much better, and I will help you do that.

    +357 ***** 9262

    nic********no1988@hotmail.com

    (I think I sent you wrong email link last time, this one is correct)

    email me your phone number and give me a good time to call you to discuss business

    Regards,
    Nick

    So- if i am seeing this right. A guy from another country that cannot use BPs in the SBRstore uses guy from USA to get the items and he sends them to the other guy. So this other guy is threatening to expose him unless he uses him and pays him.

    My understanding is the 6 guys I'm talking about, are well established members/posters. But what they've been doing is clearly against SBR rules. It's not even a Derailer situation. They've done it for at least 4 or 5 years now. As long as they are banned I'm not worried about getting banned myself. I made a mistake by thinking I could get paid here.

    Gambling brings out the worse in people, they say. I would agree.

    Hopefully you won't mind helping us block any holes we may be missing.

    It'll be up to admin if you can stay, so if you want to, being helpful by explaining how you planned to help him launder out even larger amounts would probably go a long way.

    Extortion was big in the old days

    Protection money not to get slapped around forum or in person

    Basically example...I would contact Rudy and tell him I want $10 a week for protection and many guys would pay

    Why out one guy, but not the rest?

    And Grivas is turning “state witness” right before our eyes. SBR is a fascinating place.

    detective agency has cleared central member carseller4 from any wrong doing as he does not generate enough points and would surely lose any points given to him in the SBR Casino
