yeah i been playing long enough to know this story sounds like shit...

between a rock and a hard place right now.. i think my only saving grace is the orlando IP and that fact that i have never once played a bet on a draw..

Yeah I told my guy I and done for the week to take my total down and start me fresh tomorrow with a new account. Never thought this would happen

leafs_ducks · 09-02-12, 11:27 AM

Lol. But why wager 250? Makes no sense to me.

If it is a credit account I would be worried about your agent. 5Dimes gains nothing from messing with your account. The only one who gains is the agent who sets up your account.

yeah i have learned to realize this the more i talk to CS.. my agent is cool and i have known him for a while.. as of now its in his hands..

i just hope he trust me.. i always pay on time.. and i never bother him..

its a shit position to be in ...

its weird that it was only for 250$... i had probably 2k available to me in credit.. but either way it wasn't me that placed it..

what time of day was wager placed----late at night--- drunk---seems to be when weird things happen---casinos and shit.

Ghenghis Kahn · 09-02-12, 12:48 PM

does your agent live in orlando?

honestly though, the bet makes no sense. obviously if it loses it hurts you but let's say the bet hits, who does it benefit?

TheMoneyShot · 09-02-12, 12:53 PM

My question is... I'm seeing more of these threads and hearing more of these stories... why would someone hack into someone's account and place a bet for??? Doesn't make sense.

baskets · 09-02-12, 12:58 PM

not really buying here

anyways, maybe I didn't follow this correctly.... but if you can log in, why don't you manage your own account and track your own fukking wagers?

if u can log in to an acct u have, what's the other guy for? to hold your dick for you while you're wagering? don't get it

unreal

High3rEl3m3nt · 09-02-12, 01:07 PM

$250 might be the most 5dimes will take on a draw...or maybe it is $500. I think the most I could get down on a side is $500, but it's worth seeing.

I agree with baskets, or is it that you don't have the money, the guy runs the account and let's you do your thing on credit, or his money, and then you pay him the juice? (Jerry! Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!). That's one complicated gambling triangle.

Very strange

Don't really understand how this credit account thing works.

But having another degenerate know your account and password can't be a good thing.

Believe it to be that the OP places bets through 5D but they have no financial stake in it. His local pays 5D a certain amount to book his bets, but it's the local who settles with the customer. SO 5D is just the middleman and acts like a pay per head shop in this instance.

Great set up actually. He gets 5dimes lines but gets paid out in cash, no dealing with slow cs, trying to pick up p2ps or cashiers checks.

Bad thing is, someone used ur account. Of course change password asap, but also if you have had a good relationship with this guy let him know you didn't place the bet, and 5dimes said it was from Orlando. Either he knows what's going on, or he won't want to lose your business over $250. If he doesn't budge, don't pay. You lose the out, but do you really want it anyway after this? You know you didn't make the bet so you aren't in the wrong.

mynameismud · 09-02-12, 02:16 PM

very odd dilemma.

I'm doing very similar. Hate all the bullshit in and out of alternatives. Very clean so far but little nervous about open cedit balance and I've got them for a little.

sticky mesd

thetrinity · 09-02-12, 04:51 PM

smells like the agent is messing around. do you really trust him as much as you say?

I will know tomorrow that's for sure. Either way I am collecting this week. But 250$ less

Pretty sick if true... Gl

Talk to tony any copy and paste the chat here when done!

Nittany Lion · 09-02-12, 10:11 PM

I keep on saying the security at these books is horrible, for a place that deals with people betting money, you would think they would have decent security setup. Like all my online banking sites, if I try to access my checking account from a friends house, the website will tell me it doesn't recognize the computer and will ask me security questions that I already setup. WHY THE FUKK CAN'T THESE BOOKS DO THE SAME! I guess they don't give a shit about your security, if someone logs into your account and places a bet with all your money and it loses, they don't give a shit, just more money for them. The only time they would care is if enough customer accounts were getting hacked into and people were leaving, thus bringing down business.

If a book could setup decent security on their website and was rated B+ or better in the SBR Reviews section, I would jump to them in a second. Also, don't you love how 5Dimes live chat asks for your account number and password every time too? So unsafe, if you have a keylogger on your computer it will capture that and send it back to the hacker, guess what? Now they can login and do whatever they want.

Seems like 5Dimes has horrible IT guys, their website slows to shit during heavy betting times like it did yesterday and website security is an F. For the amount of money they must make, you'd think they would spend some on hiring decent techies to upgrade their systems and website.

InTheDrink · 09-02-12, 10:12 PM

other than helping to pull the info 5dimes has no dog in this hunt at all

I have noticed there is no https:// with 5Dimes. That's not good.

Harmy G · 09-03-12, 12:09 AM

Probably some other client wanted that bet and the local just got accounts mixed up.

Fang-Banger · 09-03-12, 12:24 AM

Idk man sounds like you placed a call to a buddy in Orlando and left yourself an out in case the bet lost. Doubt your agent or 5dimes will help you. Classic con

Nittany Lion · 09-03-12, 01:37 AM

Does anybody else know your account number and password besides you? Does this "agent" also have it?

TwoWays · 09-03-12, 01:47 AM

Be responsible, check out your own wagers daily. Do you give back the winnings if it won? No one to blame but yourself.

Ralphie1412 · 09-03-12, 01:53 AM

Eat the 250. 5dimes won't do shit

baskets · 09-03-12, 02:00 AM

5dimes shouldn't do shit.

This is a joke of a situation, really.

You let your nephew drive your Mercedes and he crashes it.... and now it's the Mercedes' dealership fault????

Classic fukking American mentality.

Nittany Lion · 09-03-12, 03:18 AM

If this agent knew you account info, you can bet it's him. He probably logged into your account by accident thinking it was his or somebody else and placed the bet. That would make sense because if somebody really hacked your account and wanted to fukk you over, why not bet the entire account balance on some prop with a +5000 odd or something, something they know would almost certainly lose. Doesn't make sense for someone to hack your account and just bet $250......guarantee whoever placed it thought it was their account or something.
