Chris Tanner - Tampa Sports - Sportspick1019 Scam. Fake lawyer to stall time. moneygram scam. sportsbetting scam. fake betting account. Tampa Or St Petersburgh Florida
Basically signed up with a sports consulting service who issued picks for a fee. However, the consultant decided to spend hours a week on the phone with me trying to gain my trust. Once he did, he informed me of a betting website he uses and first time users get a 100% matching bonus. Where if you deposit a $1000 they will match you double with "free money" and you would actually have $2000. A lot of websites have promotions for 20%, 50% but this was almost to good to be true! It was!
So I joined his service and paid him the $1000 to start betting through the new service. I ended up winning over $8000 from December to superbowl. Everytime I asked him for a payment he stalled and came up with new excuses everytime. (when someone owes you this kind of money, it makes it realy difficult not to want to believe their lies) So after I threatened him with contacting the authorities, he had some jerk named Joe Cipriano with a NY accent claiming he was his lawyer.
When Joe first called me from a private number, he claimed that he was going to have to fly to Costa Rica where the sportsbook casino was, and fight the case to get the money back. This went on from about March 2009 until this past weekend when I put all the pieces together and did a background check. There is no Joe Cipriano that is a lawyer, ANYWHERE! Unfortunately I was scammed one last time by his FAKE LAWYER. He told me that his attorney fee was $350, and that I would have my $8000 check once he received his attorney fee.
So of course I bought into this thinking he was an attorney before I realized he was just another scam artist. These guys are really slick at doing this. He even had fabricated an office pool during the college football bowl games. You had to pick one winner each day, with double elimination (two chances to lose). 50 people entered into his fake tournament.
Well it sounded great but when you are playing against yourself and there is noone else playing you probably will lose everytime. That was another $200. It has been 8 months since it all began and I was scammed 4 times by the same guy! Please please please if they are from florida and have a NY accent be very careful of these guys. They will tell you how hot they are and that they will only pick the winners. When it comes time for them to ask you for money, see what you are getting first. If it sounds to good to be true, in this line of business it is!
