Why? Because they are no more than common criminals. What has occurred here is that there was no fair warning on the website that this change would take place. Also, what is there to say that when we enter the passwords we registered with the system denies them even if they are correct? Then the owners can run away with the entire bankroll (around 5,000 BTC or $3 million) as it was before the change and have no compunction or recourse to anyone, having Costa Rican registration. This precludes a federal interrogation of Voorhees or his associates in the United States, which I would otherwise heavily push for.

This elaborate heist can be repeated over and over again, extracting millions from those that invest in the bankroll and have unused balances in their Play accounts.

It's a sham; a well-conceived and ornate one, but a sham nonetheless. Give up; you will not see your money again.

One can only hope in time reputational damage will undo them in a corporate sense and increasing globalisation with attendant information sharing will lead to jail time.
