FTP players, keep a look out for Unauthorized Bank Withdrawls from Former Processor

#1 25th February 2011, 8:33 PM

A ton of people are getting money stolen from their bank accounts as a company takes money via ACH using the name PMI and Western Clear. They are a former payment processor for Full Tilt.

If you see charges on your Bank Account from this company you should immediately dispute it with your bank, and call 888-875-8035 to make contact with PMI. Do not let it slip, because many people have had amounts taken over multiple months ranging from $10 to $200 or more. Some people have had to change bank accounts. Either way, you must stay with it because some people have had trouble stopping the charges.

Thanks for the heads up. FTP payments have been very sketchy recently and that's why my last withdrawal I used a bank account with $0 in it and everyone else should do the same.

Thanks for the heads up warning about this WEC. This makes sense out of alot of posts I've been reading about peeps having money taken from their accounts.

Imagine that, and just last week several people here were ready to crucify some lady for daring to come on here and say money was being taken by FTP, granted she was mistaken about who really had taken the funds but FTP was not being helpful to her at all and seeing as how it was a processor they hired they are responsible to help every one that is being burned to recoup their funds and if they aren't willing to help then they are just as guilty in my book

Thanks for posting... Although I saw this somewhere else still pretty serious and people need to keep an eye on their checking account...

God that is scary as hell. I have 2 bank accounts, from now on I'm only going to do Poker on one of them. Seriously that is nuts! But come to think of it both bank accounts have had poker stuff go on. I think I need a third account that has nothing to do with any gambling stuff. If this keeps up, I really fear for the future scene.

To be truthful, I've always had this possibility in the back of my mind. "I'm giving these people routing #, account #, and my name, address, phone #. What's to stop a rogue 3rd party poker processor from just trying to steal your money? They could just make it look like another typical gambling transaction".
