This is obviously not THE Hoyt Corkins and I believe there was a thread somewhere (maybe Internet) that talked about how this guy was scamming people.

yes, we know this

have you called him yet apathy?

He's really starting to annoy me. Its funny though, he's flipped out at me a couple of times. He'll be pulling a fish in who's actually taking him half serious and I'll tell hoyt to go away and quit scamming etc. Try it sometime and watch him cuss you out and ask you who the [censored] you think you are.

FYP

Since there are new people to the forum all the time and we wouldn't want them to think that Hoyt is hard up for cash and hitting up people online.

NO but I am going to as soon as I stop playing and figure out exactly what I should say.

Maybe I will pretend to be the "sucker" in the post above and use the Jman type script, could be really funny. Anyway I can record this?

Apathy - When you get him on the phone, be sure to tell him that 200 people are going to come stab him in the foot with an ice-cream cone...

i no longer see chat from hoytcorkins4.

i have begun a practice of getting the scammers to click on a seat at a table, then i can hit the disable chat feature on them even if they're not sitting with cash.

this plan rules.

Giving out a fake would be pointless unless he thought it would give the people confidence in him without them actually calling it. I think its real or it would be stupid to add a fake number to the scam.

edit: why hasn't party banned this fool?

Oh man, if I could record the call, that would be so hot. I think that might be illegal or something.

Let us know what you do.

I tried a reverse phone lookup, and this is what I got:
The phone number "(248) 890-9023" is a Royal Oak, MI based phone number and the registered carrier is At&t Wireless Services, Inc. However, due to number portability, some numbers have been transferred to a new service provider other than the registered carrier.

I don't think the reverse phone lookup thing works as well for cell phones as land lines...

I used to work for a major bank, and we encountered phishing scams claiming to be from other banks but using my employer's 800 number all the time. Of course we don't really have any idea how successful they were since people getting hit by it would usually end up contacting their own bank afterward..

There are lots of scams like this on pokerstars. I've been at a table where a guy approaches and offers to sell 1000 tourney dollars for 600 bucks. Obviously for SNG players this is a great deal. I responded to him and agreed to the deal but said it would have to go through support. He then refused and claimed that would be too much trouble. That's when I realized what he was up to. I mean support could do it easily and he'd be getting $600 so why not just be a little patient?

Another guy named James Prendergrast from Mississippi on recpoker.com claimed he was starting a poker room: lagunapoker.com. He even had a nice website and stuff. He was looking for investors so I chatted with him on the phone. Just some guy looking for a score. The website shortly thereafter was taken down.

Dont fall for this stuff,

Indy

By the way, I really hate these scammers as they make it hard for me to do deals online. I like to do sidebets to see who will win a SNG and I like to play the oddsmaker, getting people to transfer me $ to my account and then distributing the funds after its over. I've done this with big online names like teecoy and S 18 so I have a good reputation. Thing is, most people don't know me so they won't trust me and make any deals. I would never, ever, dishonor a bet and hurt my reputation but how could they know this?

For what it's worth, 411.com says:

We're sorry. We did not find a listing for the phone number you entered.
The phone number "(248) 890-9023" is a Royal Oak, MI based phone number and the registered carrier is At&t Wireless Services, Inc. However, due to number portability, some numbers have been transferred to a new service provider other than the registered carrier.

FWIW, in most states it is legal to record a telephoone converstation without informing the other party, as long as you are a party to the call. What state are you in?
