Default Re: Cyberthiefs stole $65000 from Party poker player.

His Pokerstars account was also stolen. E-mail from PS security to the guy:

"Hello Mats,

I wanted to give you an update on what I found on my investigation of the
unauthorized use of your account.

Since the last time you told me that you had accessed your account, on
9/26/05, it was not accessed again until 9/29/05. On 9/29/05 at 8:23 PM a
password change was requested and a new password was sent to the email
address registered in your account, mazak14@hotmail.com. Then at 8:24 your
account was accessed for the first time, from a computer that can be traced
back to Pennsylvania, US.

Right after your account was accessed, there was a $150.00 transfer made to
a brand new account named 'PoopTree', created from this same computer.
Account 'TestBigBoot' appears to also have logged in from this same
computer during the time your account was accessed from there.

Then after your account received a transfer for $400.00 they went on and
spent it on the tables. I did not find any dumping or irregular play on my
preliminary review, but I am awaiting the results from a review by our
Poker experts to confirm this. (dom $400 kom från gambler21 efter att jag skinnat honom på kinapoker)

I am trying to get more information from the accounts mentioned above, but I have only gotten bogus replies from one of them. Please let me know if these account names and the fact that they are from Pennsylvania give you any clues as to who they may be. These people must have known your complete address in order to request a new password. But they may have also gotten that information from your email account information.

I would like to speak to you again over the phone to get more details for
my investigation. I will be in the office on Tuesday between 10:00 AM ET
and 6:00 PM ET, please let me know if it would be possible for me to reach
you then and what would be the best time.


Looking forward to your reply.


Regards,

Jorge
PokerStars Security"

Some info about the name and location of the guy using that stars account.
