actually it doesn't matted that is the reason the important thing is that he is being banned though I think it is obviously impersonating as the 1xbit Maneger confirmed that it is a fake account and not connected to the team.
and about the hopes? that is the sad reality and must be accepted by the victims.
Hope? Seriously? We are talking about a website that has been scamming gamblers for years which is why I was surprised to see some naive people think that they were actually going to change just like that.
1xbit has, is and shall always be a scam site that will keep scamming gamblers for as long as they stay in business.
He actually meant of traumatic is for the victims to be given false hopes by an scammer, come here in the forum and give their information expecting to see their money again and all ending up being a scam attempt.
He is not necessarily saying there is hope, but rather that there are still victims who have it.

And the funniest part about it was that in less than 24hours, people who got scammed by 1xbit had already started sending their details on the recent scam thread where the O.P claimed to have taken over 1xbit from it's previous casino operators, not until the current manager of 1xbit reacted quickly informing the forum members that the O.P was a mere scammer. Because literally, if 1xbit wanted to change they would have done that long time ago when they created a similar thread, but since they didn't, it's a clear sign all newbies needs to be careful of this site so they don't fall victim someday.
