Ok, it reminded me about "Poker by Proxy" all a long and I did a search for you guys:

Poker by Proxy
"Poker by Proxy" was a ponzi few months ago that did the exact same thing. They also gave daily results of "their poker players". These were just like btc-arbs daily reports with a whole story about what happened in the poker world. This is why many people believed them. After a few months they run away with the money.

Backup site:

note:
- same type of design/style
- same type of info
- same page names (!!) like /join.html, /results.html, /login.html, /results/2013/12/04.html - as a webdev I can tell you that exactly the same page names on a site is rare - most have at least "register" instead of "join" or no .html suffix. That specific result page /results/2013/12/04.html is extremely rare - almost impossible. You can check this on archive.org by hovering over the link.
- same HTML structure, like (NOTE: /assets/img/ same URLs)

and on both sites:

and other same classes like "footer_wrap", "footer_nav", etc.

Do a bit of search on "poker by proxy" and you will see how similar that website was. They officially only run away with the money 3 months ago. Looks like the same owner started btc-arbs after that.

Once again: DO NOT DEPOSIT MONEY ON BTC-ARBS, it is obviously a ponzi and 99% sure its the same as "Proxy by poker". Get your money out as long as you can - unless you like a ponzi.

FreeJack2k2, "a web developer re-purposed a past design" for a ponzi and now this site? Do you know how many web developers there are? The odds of this being a coincidence are impossible small.

"Poker by Proxy" also easily withdrew money and gave good support. Until the day they ran away with the money > and then it's too late.

I'd like to thank you guys for bringing up the archive.org poker website. Being human I tried to believe the arbitrage thing is real, because they really invest time to make it look legit and following arbitrage opportunities myself it felt quite manageable what they do to me. But now I withdrew my whole invest before it's too late (including the earnings). The archive.org proof was what I needed to see things clear.
