Another Case of Prima locking an Account without Evidence

[Ulysses]

Granny,

This apparent business practice makes no sense to me either. But I do know of players who have had their accounts locked and received one communication that says basically "Your account was locked and seized due to fraud." Their efforts at getting any further detail from either their skin or Prima have been unsuccessful.

Now, the suspicion in the two cases I am personally aware of is that in some game or other that they played, someone lost money that came from a stolen credit card or something.

However, how can that merit closing the account and seizing all funds, much of which came from play against regular opponents in good standing?

As I said, I personally know of two people w/ impeccable reputations in both live and online play that this has happened to.

On the other hand, I know of tons of Prima players from 2+2 at 1000NL and lower who have never had any problems. But this seems to be a common occurrence in the higher limit games. It appears that a VERY high percentage of high-limit players at Prima end up with their accounts locked. Definitely a high enough percentage for people to at least do their homework before keeping too much money there.
