    Default Warning (if you need one !!)

    I guess loads of people have just received a private message like the one below - just in case you cant see the scam: you receive 'uncleared' paypal funds, assume you have the cash and so give the guy your money (which he runs off with just before you newly aquired paypal money bounces). Net result = you are £180 down !

    Hi,

    I need some dollars on Pokerstars. I would like to pay you in advance using Paypal.
    Is that possible? I can pay you a fee for the transaction.

    I can propose the following: I send you 200 dollar with Paypal and
    you send me 180 dollars on Pokerstars.

    If you are interested, please add me on MSN:
    <deleted>@gmail.com.

    Thanks!

    What if I promise that I won't cancel the payment on Paypal after you ship me the money on Stars? What if I promise you 10&#37; of my profits on Stars thereafter? Come on man, the cash games on Stars are easy! This isn't a con!

    It wasn't me but I must comment that I suspect I am so powerful on this site that the only way I could be banned would be if Matt and James both had their irises scanned at the Pokerplex and simultaneously turned two unique keys in the super-Poker.co.uk console to open up the super-settings. That is the only way to ban Dice Man IMO.
