I just read that thing
the new company wants $25K just to host a forum? and that's a yearly fee?
that's insane - isn't it possible to just put up a forum yourself for very little $ if you're tech savvy or if you hire someone who is?
There is something way wrong with immediately shutting everything down after purchase then giving the web masters just two weeks to make a decision or all data will be destroyed. Thats really screwed up.
What are the chances it is a scam?
Looks like one of those scammers that hold sites hostage.
FWIW, Dan posted something on the other site a few days about the possibility of this happening, so I think he knew it was coming, and I don't think it's a scam.
He had some kind of backup plan IIRC. I guess we'll find out soon enough..
This just so happens to coincide with April Fools?
There is no such company as Connectedata Inc. in Rhode Island. When you put your cursor over the attached link, you go back to pokerfraudalert.com. The telephone number listed is for Kars For Kids.
April Fools
This really does smell like stinky fish..... I also do think this screams "SCAM," like you do too. Hold up, it IS April Fool's Day. This could all be an unfunny April Fool's joke and his PokerFraudAlert is back tomorrow. I mean, the notice was given on March 31st and lots of people do April Fool's jokes one day early. Hmm. You never know. At least one April Fool's days, websites put a "Agree to sell your soul to the Devil," as a Term in The Terms And Conditions," and people blindly clicked, "I accept all Terms And Conditions," obviously NOT reading that Term. Website owners got good laughs out of it, as they were given proof that Future Members DO NOT read all of the Terms And Conditions. So, the PokerFraudAlert thing could just be an elaborate April Fool's day joke.Quote:

After clicking around I was able to get on poker fraud alerts just fine.

Dan explains it in this thread:

Axel you got on after Dan somehow got it back up

Half Smoke, check the link titled, "Well, You Made It Here." on pokerfraudalert.com. Dan admits the joke.
Like I stated earlier, there is no company by that name in Rhode Island, putting the cursor on the company website brought you back to the pokerfraudalert website and the telephone number listed is for Kars 4 Kids.
