In a nutshell, a poster at this UK poker forum got a bunch of other posters to "invest" in a BetFair account which he would manage for them all, and he stole the money. Not really all that interesting, I suppose, but it's funny how the only guy questioning the scam was ridiculed and attacked for it, and even after he was proven right, few apologized for their previous hate. It's also pathetic that the "investors" didn't see this scam a mile away. So many signs.
Learned a bit about Betfair from it all, anyway.
It's a long thread. I just read every 3rd page or so.
Mods, if you really have a problem with the link, delete the thread, I won't be hung up on it. But it's got some good sportsbetting content.
