    my last email from JON at betislands (recieved 12/8/20012)

    i was robbed of 49,649

    Hi xxx,


    Hope all is well.


    Ryan is working with you , we as a company are working with you. When have you not gotten paid from us in the past? How many times did you get paid from me at Wagerchief and Betislands?


    Your attitude of public bashing does not help or make the situation better xxx , Ryan will contact you on Monday with a payment plan approved by us. In the meantime please try and be patient and understand that until our checks are back we are sending 4 x more transactions than what we usuallly offer.


    Thanks

    bubba , 3 of my friends lost $$ in the BI fiasco they actually invested a few K in finding out what REALLY happened.

    " JON " was the face of the company since the real bookmakers and bankers never step forward and admit it he was a former clerk/manager a few years ago and found investors , there was actually and arrest made and when that happend the bank died out EZ street said they would take it and then backed out . The company was being shopped around town but it was in the gutter due to sharp players.

    Betislands was a timebomb and I feel bad for everybody that lost money there but to some other players like my friends the place was an ATM with free half points , amazing teaser odds , low juice and high bonuses to go along with it.

    The lesson learned here is that if an offer is tooooo good to be true it ALWAYS is when it comes to this industry.

    Company went belly fukin up

    Play at shops that are highly rated and that pay fast and that run a sustainble business model not ones that give away the house

    Wow, looking at the style of writing, including the spacing for the commas, I am fairly confident this is Jon. Hi Jon.

    FUK u man for real , i know people who lost money in this ordeal and this what their research came up with. I am in Mass BTW not friggin costa rica. Drop a few bars from the paranoia level Dr House.

    Nobody is trying to say or save that tattooed prick but to claim he has cash or a real bank is outrageous he was a clerk not 5 years ago and was obviously not the financial backbone of betislands he was the FACE. You wanted facts these are facts that apparently industry insiders know.

    My god, $50,000? My guess is you can afford to lose it if you got that much of your net worth invested in a sportsbook (I don't even have half of that amount in savings) but still don't make it right. Theft is theft.

    it's highly likely the guy had less 1/4 of 50K deposited and was alot of profit and he wished it was included in his net worth and not stolen from him.

    From what I read from Bubbas previous posts he had for a very long time repeatedly tried to withdraw and was given a brutal run around. Also from his posts this ripoff has a HUGE effect on his life and he "can not afford to lose it". I can see why you would draw your conclusion but unfortunately this money is life altering to bubba.

    Again, no one knows where this Jon is?

    Yes, there were guesses as to who it was. If this site block him from posting and took control of his replies, guess who it was.

    Jon is still down in CR in hiding ... hes trying to get into another book and will have a whole new identity.
    No matter where he is at I will always try to find out and expose that book.

    Guys, I'm sorry you lost all your money but its over. No reputable book will bail you out or one that you will ever feel safe depositing in. As it was reported numerous times, many large balances were sharp money and books won't take that kind of risk. Bubba- I'm extremely sorry but its over pal.

    Getting the money back may be over. Sadly I have to agree with you there. However if anyone thinks Jon should just be forgotten they are insane. Does anyone even have a picture of this crook?

    Don't interpret my words as telling people to forget. I'm just saying the asking and wondering should be over.Those involved are the lowest form of scum and never should be forgotten. Sadly, nothing will ever happen though.

    There's a reason most people have moved on. It's because they always expected to lose every last penny in their account anyways. And that's what happened so to them it was a self fulfilling prophecy.

    I lost 0 dollars and I am disgusted. I lost 300 bucks in college on the bet on sports debacle. I can only imagine what the people at BI went through. Lets see if the mods take down this post.
