Canbet Sportsbook payout issues update - Canbet Director comments..

**simply** · 05-08-14, 06:39 PM

However they will pay on some way. They can't get away so easy as they thought.

**Nazarus868** · 05-09-14, 07:50 AM

If we dont get paid then they HAVE got away with it in my eyes !!!

**shari91** · 05-09-14, 08:15 AM

Just to give you guys an update - There has been quite a bit of info that's been collected that's been passed on to ASIC since my last update. Between myself and two other posters, they've sent me everything they can and I've in turn sent it all to those looking for it.

To give you guys a bit of background without hopefully screwing anything up - One of the people involved in Canbet was also involved in many other schemes involving things outside of sportsbooks. What it means for you is that it slows things down a bit which is a negative... the positive though is that all of this other stuff is providing proof that he should not have been a director of this company and was fully aware it had no $ while still continuing to accept bets. This is a very very very good thing.

Just sit tight for a bit. I know it's frustrating but no one has forgotten about you. If that f'n UK GC was worth a penny then we wouldn't be going through this right now but since we know they're useless and they've given up, we have to do this the hardcore way. Again, no promises but you have 3 very determined people in Melbourne working on your behalfs - 2 of which aren't even owed cash from Canbet betting. Hold on a bit more and we will update you soon.

**bill009** · 05-09-14, 08:20 AM

Keep up the good work...

Thank you...

**CM1979** · 05-09-14, 09:37 AM

Nice to ear from you again shari91. We know you're doing the best that you can.
Thank you!

**MLZ3211** · 05-09-14, 03:27 PM

Nice to hear a bit of good news Shari. Thanks.

**simply** · 05-09-14, 04:59 PM

Excellent work Shari. I contacted GC, as their license issuer, for latest Canbet update because we have no update in last two months, and you guess, they didn't respond me nothing. What a losers...
As we already knew this theft was planned in front, and it is good that this fact is confirmed. Hopefully investigation will find who is responsible for false auditors report in January

**JayZ** · 05-10-14, 05:30 AM

Canbet etc Ltd would get investigated by the UK if it were wound up compulsory by the courts - this is a statutory requirement on the official receiver.

Sorry, but I don't understand what that means. Can you explain it in short?

**JayZ** · 05-10-14, 10:44 AM

Creditors can petition the court for a company to be wound-up ie liquidated to realise its assets. If granted there is then also an investigation into the conduct of the company and its directors. You need to be a creditor of the company to at least £750 to do this.

With Canbet there aren't likely to be any assets of course, so it is then relying on whatever the investigation turns up as to whether the 'corporate veil' is lifted and the directors become personally liable.

**RoepStoep** · 05-11-14, 01:22 PM

I just want to give you a heads up shari, you are f'n brilliant! If you hadn't taken charge in this whole thing (without any personal stakes involved!) it would most likely still be dragging around, amounting to little or nothing.
If I didn't need the money so bad I would easely give you half of any funds recovered to cover your expenses and the time you put in, but still I'd be happy give 10% or more if needed. This whole situation has forced me to put my studies on hold and find a job, in short, it has affected my personal life bigtime, and I had given up hope to get anything back a long time ago.
It is hard to express my gratitude, you are helping a lot of people with this, I find it amazing what you're doing for us!

**pajo1206** · 05-14-14, 05:42 AM

Shari, you are pure gold

Thanks again from all of us.

**alexwalstow** · 05-14-14, 10:45 AM

Come on Guys Shari aint doing sh*t other than giving you false hope and trying to win a popularity contest. What on earth is a moderator from a gambling forum gonna do? These guys are full on crooks. They stole over £3000 from me and I've already waved it goodbye.

So, if thanks to Shari's efforts, you do receive (admittedly unlikely) anything from the wreck you'll be giving it all to Shari I trust?

Ignorant arsehole!

Firstly, f*ck off you convict bastard. Secondly no because it wouldn't be anything to do with her. And thirdly IF I do get my funds back I will happily donate them to charity and post the proof here. Lets not forget who Shari works for, oh yes SBR. And who's side are SBR on, oh yes the books. Have your forgotten Betislands already?

"it wouldn't be anything to do with her"
It MAY have occurred regardless of her involvement in bringing the case and evidence to the attention of ASIC but there can be no denying the effort she's put in on it on behalf of Canbet customers.

SBR and BetIslands is totally irrelevant to this.
As is the history of convicts deported to Australia, Canada, the US and other colonies.

You're not allowed to see the requested page - Gambling Commission

http://www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/gh-contact_us/complaints/canbet_response.aspx

"On May 7, 2014, Canbet was removed from the Commission’s licence register after surrendering its operating licence. We will be making a statement in due course."
Great.

**mojobullfrog** · 05-15-14, 08:49 PM

The Gambling Commission's just doing what they've done since the start - protecting their own self-interest.

**the unheardof** · 05-17-14, 10:36 AM

Racing Post are finally publishing their article next Thursday. It has been repeatedly delayed and has only just been given a fixed publication date.

When you say next Thursday, do you mean in 3 days?

Like yourself I'm not 100% certain if it means the publication will be 3 day's or 10 days from now. I received the notification from Tom Kerr on Friday so I take it to mean 3 days time. At least either way it's happening as I'm sure a good few of us were wondering if they were still going ahead with the story.

**pajo1206** · 05-20-14, 09:26 AM

Another question to Shari.
How will players prove how much money they are owned by Canbet?

I have screen shots for my account, but others who do not have it?

**balloons** · 05-20-14, 11:59 AM

That's what I ask myself too. Even screenshots are maybe worthless. You can edit your screenshot if you want, and alternate the amount. Only Canbet have the right data, and who knows, maybe they've deleted all, and no proofs that way. :/

A court or proper authority can demand it. Destroying it or failing to supply it would just result in more legal problems for them.

**chachi** · 05-21-14, 05:14 PM

And if one decides to not enter the UK or Aussieland and chooses one's jurisdictions correctly, such authority is meaningless

I guess, but I don't think people owed need to be concerned about them hiding the accounts is what I was trying to get across. The owners will probably already be on 'the run' if it gets to that point. And personally I doubt well established identities who seem to have got themselves into this knowing the outcome was coming will run very easily. They will go along with whatever legal proceedings they have to and play the game I expect. Which means handing over accounting info fairly early in the process.

**shari91** · 05-21-14, 10:24 PM

Just an update - The documents ASIC has been waiting for from IGAS' new administrators HallChadwick have been filed as of last week and I was asked yesterday to resubmit some info and provide some additional stuff. I'm not sure what those docs say but they're available on the ASIC site if someone is curious and wants to purchase them. I was told I'd hear back from ASIC by mid next week at the latest so I'll let you know when I do.

**simply** · 05-22-14, 07:55 AM

If they don't have money to pay us, maybe Delta corp (http://www.deltacorp.in) will be forced to pay from court , because they are some kind of IGAS owners. I don't know if this is possible, just thinking.
And if they destroyed our accounts with all data, than it is clear sign that fraud was made. They have no reason to do that.

**ThomasKerrRP** · 05-22-14, 08:26 AM

Hi all,

Some of you may recall I posted early last month seeking Canbet customers for an article in the Racing Post. I'd like to thank everyone who got in touch for their time and assistance and let you know the resulting article is published in today's (22/5) edition of the Racing Post. Its main focus is the lack of protection given to customers by the UK's Gambling Commission during the Canbet saga and hopefully some may find it of interest.

Very best wishes,
Tom
