Anyways, sometimes I try to login to the site before setting my VPN and it simply tells me I'm in a restricted area. Never had any issues though, I just flip on the VPN and all good. I've been using this site for about 2 months now. Today I logged in and and it was requesting I input my phone number to proceed. It said I can withdraw funds but services were restricted until I enter my phone number. So I created a fake number from Hong Kong, and entered it in. It sent me a code and I entered it. Little did I know Hong Kong  is also banned from this site (I know I know, I was just in a hurry to place a bet). Now my account is locked and they will not allow me access to even withdraw until I go through full KYC.

That is really a crazy move you've made. But I think it was done and you help your account to get banned from accessing it. Your money will get stuck there and no way to get it. That is how important to read the TOS before making the registration and make it follow as this KYC could be imposed somehow. We'd better go check it first as once we make a deposit and make some account verification it somewhat leads to asking KYC later especially when they notice that you are using VPN.
That is a lesson to learn and sorry to hear that. $1,200 is huge money already...
