Firstly, I've used ** over the years to request payouts from sportsbooks and poker rooms. My latest payout request at a Poker room has been approved and sent for processing. The status has been listed as "in progress" for a week now. I contacted them to find out why I haven't been given my ** instructions within 24-48 hours of it being processed. They told me that the money has been sent to ** but is currently being investigated by ** and they could not tell me when ** would get back to them with an approval or not. I asked the poker room if there was anything I could do to speed this up. Like maybe contact ** to find out whats the problem? They told me this normally happens when someone receives alot of ** transactions, and the only thing to do now is to just wait until they hear back from **. I must admit I do receive maybe 3-4 **'s a month for the past year or so, so I can see myself being flagged by **. My question is though, will ** contact me to ask me about my past ** history? The poker room didn't even give me the details of this current transaction..meaning whos the sender..so if they called me to ask me about the sender..I honestly couldn't tell them anything about them. Not even there name. I asked the poker room for the details of the ** instructions, and they were not able to give it to me. So I feel left in the dark here. Has anyone ever gone through something like this? How long do these investigations last? Also will they(**) contact me? If so, obviously I'm not going to say I'm receiving gambling profits...but what would be a good excuse for the moneys I have received in the past?
Sorry for the long post.
