    I need info from regular poker players on various sites,my bank account was debited 120 over 2 days from what my online banking says pkrser.com,now I googled that site and its some american financial site and a few workmates reckon that its actually pkr.com or pokerstars????

    I dont even know how to play poker so my card looks like it was used for it,can any of you regulars check your online banking and help me confirm it???

    Thanks in advance.

    You mean an account other than your own?

    If that's the case, you've got to watch out for Phishing in your emails. I've been victim of it before but luckily I caught it quite early and managed to secure my cash.

    Did you get the name of the person who opened the account or more likely the account that he dumped the funds to.

    He probably played someone heads up and lost the money to them so that they could withdraw it and if that is the case party will realise it and take action.

    Did you give your details to a Nigerian prince who needed to park a few million in your account while he fled his familys oppressive regime and was going to let you keep 10%?

    No im not that thick in fairness I would say the card was skimmed in town,party poker are being awkward cnuts at the moment,the bank has refunded the money just waiting on party poker to get their asses in gear,im sick of their call centre in India.

    Log into your party account and see what happened to the funds.

    There are tracking sites that might aid with this.

    http://www.pokertableratings.com/ will allow you to see who the lad played against after depositing into your account.

    Since you have been refunded there is nothing much more than can be done beyond cancelling the card and having the bank issue you a new one.

    Already done but id love to find out who skimmed it.

    If they are clever enough to have skimmed it they are clever enough not to have directly dumped (lost) the money to an account in their name so you wont find that out if they were professional skimmers.

    If it is some dodgy person in a restaurant or the like they may have made a mistake like that but party poker won't give you the name of the person of the account where the majority of the money was dumped to.

    I can't see how you will find out.
