It all depends on whether or not the important bits are readable.

I passed my ID check but can't remember if I covered parts up of it. They only need photographic evidence to stop multiple accounts.

I've been a member since 2008 and not had my identity stolen...

If you get declined, the only scammer around in the area isn't Poker Strategy. You do the working out who it might be...

Hello guys,

Obviously some new users are worried about this, that it may be a phishing scam. And it's understandable. However, this is certainly not the case. Pokerstrategy has given away $50 million in free starting capitals, so there are many users here who can reassure you.

What I can also say is that your documents are deleted one they have been used - we need them only for verifying who you are, and so delete them to stop any malicious use of them.

You may also know it's part of most poker rooms to ask for the same type of documents, as proof of identity. So it's not just us :)

Hope that clears things up.

Best regards,

Jim


It is a scam.They said they would give me a 50 dollar starting capital on one site.They didn't the *****.They gave me 2 starting capitals on two different sites.How dare they lie to me.I demand that i am allowed to return one of the 50 dollars now.

PS is a quality site whether or not u get the starting capital.Lots to learn and enjoy it.


this site isn't scam. i received it.


what site are we talkin about?


I think the fact that you had to bump a thread from 2009 to claim we're a scam says far more about the fact that we're not than anything I could type here, so I'll leave it at that.

good job


What I find amazing is that this site ISN'T some sort of scam. When I first saw it on Tv i figured yeah they give you a free $50... after you deposit at least $20, earn 1000 points, sign up to all their third party affiliates and get an "I :heart: PokerStrategy.com" tatoo.

Giving away a free starting BR and going out of their way to help beginners improve their game? Please, these guys deserve some sort of Nobel prize. You know what, I'm going to get that tatoo.

+1 (but minus the tattoo) :P


After confirming my ID and passing the quiz i got 50 bucks. they even were kind enough to give me another 50 to start me up on another site. Its not a scam, its a rakeback contract: content for rakeback... and they are quite interested in seeing that we are successful players because it means more money for them too.


i was wondering how did you get2 x 50 starting money ???

Get lucky and you will get an email about. It's given out randomly.

That's correct Darkprice and thank you for responding ;)

Basically, the offer of a 2nd capital is random, and it may or may not be given to you. I suggest keep checking your emails every now and then just to make sure you don't miss any notifications :)

If you do receive a 2nd offer, it will be by email and email only :)

Hope this helped,

Gary
