Default Re: HoytCorkins4\'s phone number

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?
