Dazdudley apparently got Rocket's login and password.
He then traded 34,000 of Rocket's points to himself.
Daz then lost all but 5000 points (Which he redeemed) in the poker client.
ScottieB won most of them from Daz (Over 20k worth)
From what I can see, Scottie won them legit.
So the question remains, what do I do about Rocket's points?
Daz is obviously banned
interrogate rckt. sounds fishy... was it hacked?... or he just figures out the password?
This whole situation makes me sick.
I am sorry Rocket this happened to you, and it is a little scary.
I have no answer as to what to do, I am in shock.
it would be bad if people didnt feel there points were safe on here
is there a way you can credit rocket's points back without screwing up scottie?
Give Rckt 17k back and tell him to get a stronger password
Your points are safe on here, why is that in question. It's no different if someone got your poker account info (Daniel N. recently got his pokerstars account hacked, would you say your money is safe there?)Quote:

If your account gets hacked obv you didnt have a safe password or leaked it somewhere. Daz should be gone and there is basically nothing you can for rckt. Has to be a lesson to everyone to protect your account and password.
Only if Scottie wants to give some back.. he won them legitQuote:

Is it ok to post hand histories so we all look at them. Even the dumbest scammer would know to chimpdump in a way that looks legit
i miss worded that i meant people should have some protection from stuff like that happening unlesss it was somehow rckts fault , a super simple pass something like that.Quote:

My pass was quite strong. I have no idea how daz got it.
the situation sucks both ways. an argument can be made that if you unknowingly bought a stolen computer, and someone made a valid claim to it, you would have to return it to the rightful owner.....
I sent the hand histories to rocket. He can email them to you if he wants or I can email themQuote:

No password is 100% unguessable/uncrackable.Quote:

In any way, Rocket if "dazdudly" really DID hack into RocketWrangler's account, Ian would have a lawsuit vs dazdudly in the fact that he accessed his account unauthorized. This may seem silly, however it can be done.
Also, about the points, possibly a consolation of 5000 points at the MOST could be awarded, but Scottieb won these points legitly, and can not be held reliable for a mistake like this as he was not in fault (as far as we know.) Take it like this, I win $50000 from the lottery, the lottery tells me I can't claim the money because someone who bought the majority of the tickets used counterfeit bills and it was found out 3 months later... Is this fair? No. This site is safe and your account is safe, your password is YOURS and if it gets out somehow it is only YOUR fault.
zab i have 5k or 7k missing from client. I would be happy to help rocket you can take a split of my last win. That would be 13500 in points... I want to be fair with everyone.
How did he get rckt login and pw, first serious question, was it rckt's fault, not saying it was, but investigate, you as the owner of the site can pay rckt the pts back or ask from donations from members..thats about all you can do, but gl..sick sht regardlessQuote:

I think it has to be investigated further before points are given back or replaced - what games where the points won in
Sottie already said he would do half with rkt unless theres another way to get his points back, id take it and change my pw
Scottie being stand up is nice, but honestly you can't do a whole lot with having him pay back unless volunteering
