Assuming that the OP is telling the truth, I believe him. It's a story exponentially more believable than SexyGamblerChick. Seeing the betting pattern at Betfair should pretty much clear this up.Originally posted by pags11SBR would never get rid of me...ever...Originally posted by BuddyBearI'd probably most likely chose Pags to jack off too.Originally posted by curioustaco is not a troll, he is a bubonic plague bacteria.Comment -

#109In theory its possible and if that did happen he'll get his money back because it will be reflected in the data that someone offered to lay a horse at a false price. That said, the data will also show if they were bets that were struck at the same odds as everyone else who betted the same event. In your scenario the hacker would need to have access to all his information and another fake account. He'd also have to hope Betfair weren't alerted to the theft before he attempted to withdraw. How do you explain the hacker knowing the 3 digit security number o the back of his card?Comment -

#110But what are the odds of losing x3 -5000 bets in a row (well I know the odds, but you know what I mean).

Betting patterns from Betfair will make or break this. And I'm pretty sure that Betfair looked at all of this when the issus was raised.
Also offering to settle cents on the dollar before anyone investigates is a little fishy as well.Originally posted by pags11SBR would never get rid of me...ever...Originally posted by BuddyBearI'd probably most likely chose Pags to jack off too.Originally posted by curioustaco is not a troll, he is a bubonic plague bacteria.Comment -

#116aston,
Were you using your own computer at the time the bets were placed?
Is your computer connected to the internet through wifi?
Would it be possible to prove you were somewhere else at the time the bets were placed?Comment -

to be able obtain all the data needed for a hack his computer should be infested with all kinds of spyware. hacks don't happen out of the blue. this question was raised earlier by data but not really taken any further.Comment -

#120the main contention of aston is these wagers were grossly out of his betting patterns and should have been stopped pending verification by betfair.Comment -

#122yeah, but that's why proving he was or was not at home does not change anything, it's just as irrelevant as the argument betfair should have stopped the bets, because they shouldn't, or the argument the bets were outside the normal betting pattern which could never be an argument for anything. betfair has the power to see where all the money on these bets went, only if something suspicious comes out of that this thread might get a followupComment -

#123I was not at home when the bets were placed and my computer does not have any virus tbh and the *credit card company did Block the credit credit card* and betfair in the past has blocked my account due to a odd high bet also betfair contacts me once my account has been empty to change the password...?! (which in case I did before I read there email) also my betting history over the 5 years does prove I do not punt $161,00 in 30 mintues and I do not lay 30 1 to 50-1 shots and betfair has to some level does prove this because I am preminium com paying customer and you cannot get that level by placing those type of punts that I have stated..as for connection I use my deskstpe which is connected direct and my labtop which is by router.Comment -

#127if you get a forensic test of your pc that will give you a lot of credibility and you can go to the mainstream UK press. they will run the story.
betfair will continue to ignore you.Comment -

#129HeeHaww: I can see why you would look down the encryption route but in that scenario wouldn't the person doing the hacking need to know where he lived or are you thinking about intercepting the informaton much further down the line? And wouldn't that person also have to have a fake account at Betfair to place bets against...unless it was someone who wanted to empty the account for sh1ts and giggles right?Comment -

#130Well yeah - but the question of the hacker's motivation doesn't really change regardless of how he got access. As I said above: why wouldn't he just dump chips via poker? From what we've heard, he just tried to empty the account for no reason.
If wireless snooping was used, it would have just been random wardriving, then snooping. This would yield the username/password, and the CVV if the deposit was made via the laptop.Comment -

#132You need to report this to the UK police at Scotland Yard. Even if they don't take it seriously get a crime report number from them so it can be seen you made a complaint of theft.Comment -

#135Thats a general enquiry form, if you enqired how to make a complaint then wait and see what happens, if you didn't just call them and report it.
I've read the links you've posted and i can honestly say I didn't realise they had these issues, although having said that, given the ammount of transactions they process in a year it's probably negligable but it does show fraud is possible.Comment -

#140if you feel you have a genuine case it's irrelevent what we say on here, the bottom line is you're claiming you've had $160K stolen and if that's the case it needs to be turned over to the police, whether that's interpol or Scotland yard or your local police in Canada. The sum involved will make them investigate it and it can't hurt your case because Betfair won't take any notice of SBR anyway, why would they, they're governed by IBAS.Comment
