DirectBet - What is the gist of the agreement you want signed?
We said from the very beginning that we have no interest in keeping the coins. We are willing to return the coins, but at the same time we need to protect our business and prevent them from attempting to defraud us again. At this point we want to discuss with the person who sent out this bet transfer and who owns the payout address, but hungerstyle keeps saying that "he is not available".

DirectBet - What is the gist of the agreement you want signed?
we need to protect our business and prevent them from attempting to defraud us again. A discussion with one person will not eliminate future double spend exploit attempts. Especially considering you market yourself as an "Anonymous, no questions asked sportsbook" So what if you get dox on him. Are you going to make them public the next time an anonymous user tries the same thing? How could you prove it was the same person? You can't. Requesting dox from an anonymous person is meaningless. They are just images, nothing more. The only way to protect yourself from this is to make it so that nobody can exploit you even if they tried. I can think of two possible solutions: 1) Require at least 1 confirmation before allowing a player to place a bet. 2) Require coins to be sent from an address that has not been previously used and will not be used until the bet is complete. (this may not solve the issue, I'm not sure - just an idea) As far as hungerstyle, you're being unreasonable and looking for any way to justify keeping the coin for yourself. There was no mention of dox when you said you would return the coin almost a month ago: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FyqZmL4E.png&t=665&c=q5vrRUfSIRYSzA) He wrote back, you didn't send.

Whether Directbet is right or wrong in asking this, do you agree with their statement:
"At this point we want to discuss with the person who sent out this bet transfer and who owns the payout address, but hungerstyle keeps saying that "he is not available"."
If it is accurate, when will that person be available?

I am person who make transfer. That's not what you told us via e-mail. We asked : "So you physically met someone during the Tennis match, gave him $15K in cash, and he made the BTC transfer to your bet ?" You replied : "Correct." We asked : "Does the payout address belongs to the person who sent the initial bet transfer ?" You replied : "Correct." We asked : "We would like to speak with the person who actually sent this bet transfer." You replied : "3rd party not available." Can you confirm the quotes above are from the e-mails that we exchanged ? Or should I post screen captures ?

We said from the very beginning that we have no interest in keeping the coins. We are willing to return the coins, but at the same time we need to protect our business and prevent them from attempting to defraud us again. At this point we want to discuss with the person who sent out this bet transfer and who owns the payout address, but hungerstyle keeps saying that "he is not available". If you have no intentions of keeping them, is it a safe to assume we agree you are not entitled to them? TwitchySeal, I appreciate your comments and feedback but we can not discuss our security practices here, I hope you can understand.
I understand there are methods that should not be public. But in this instance it seems more like a convenient excuse to keep the bitcoin without giving a reasonable explanation, you can't put stuff like this on your home page and then keep someones money because they dont want to reveal their identity: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.gyazo.com%2F08655197122e676ebd7fde5898f58c24.png&t=665&c=pHccXuZnTXeAnw) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.gyazo.com%2F49396cb2ca9d18a4679d348a323166f8.png&t=665&c=bKfW48cxqKhmYw)
Demanding the identity of someone is just another tactic to justify keeping the funds. You should of returned the funds immediately after hunger responded and said "i agree" ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.gyazo.com%2F32008f27cc64dd6bbbdc15aa7ca49499.png&t=665&c=yalz3oL83_o-Rg) But instead of giving the money back, you stalled for a day or two, then asked for name address and phone number. Then a couple days later you added more terms: no making DirectBet look bad in the forums and he had to upload his passport to imgur!!??The very fact you suggested imgur is incredibly irresponsible. Don't you see how this looks on the outside? The funds should of been returned within 24 hours. If you had no desire to keep the coins, you wouldn't still have them a month later. It's possible that Hungerstyles is guilty of attempting to exploit DirectBet, but DirectBet is guilty of being exploitable. Making someone sign an agreement or upload images of a passport will not prevent that person (or anyone else)from doing it again anonymously. The only thing it will accomplish is provide an invalid excuse for not refunding the money. I assure you, if you end up keeping the funds you will never have the same reputation you did a last month. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.gyazo.com%2F879eeab0f73407d0750cb07ba346aac3.png&t=665&c=S1-OXpNFeboZJw)

Can you confirm the quotes above are from the e-mails that we exchanged ? Or should I post screen captures ? directbet.eu, hungerstyle made it very clear from the beginning that he used a third party exchange to send the coins. From his posts and emails, It seems like this third party is some kind of local exchange. And are probably not available or are unwilling to get involved. It could be that since they already got paid for the coins, they don't see this as their problem and don't want to get involved. I'd liken this to sending you money via Western union. And you insisting you would refund me, but only if I can get western union to contact you, send my dox + their's, and sign some sort of agreement first. Do you see western union doing that? There could also be a language problem. Possibly because they know little or no English. hungerstyle alluded to this when he said them (exchange) talking to you would be similar to "having their teeth pulled".

DirectBet.eu has contacted me regarding the negative rating that I left. After some discussions I have asked for specific information that may show that the OP did in fact attempt to defraud DirectBet (however it may not).
If DirectBet.eu is able to provide solid evidence that the OP was attempting to defraud them then I will remove my negative rating and issue a negative rating against the OP.

hungerstyle, in one of the first e-mails that we sent you, as you can see in your screen capture, we asked you :
"In regards to the first bet # 128iBKnkKPcSPcwZEDMK7sSMJGodx3n47o, is it the first ever bet that you placed on our website ?"
Why did you delete your reply from the screen shot ?

I bet he'll tell you whatever you want if you agree to give him his money. Just post the emails if you think it proves something, are you really trying to act as if you respect his privacy after the "upload your passport to imgur" request? Why are you playing these games a month later? I don't get it.

21 questions directbet.eu. Keep playing your games. Let's keep going around in circles. If you have any more proof, post it. You clearly don't.You've being shown up. directbet.eu, in one of your early emails to hungerstyle, You PROMISED to refund his wager back to him, If he replied saying he would not do it again and agreed to forfeit his winnings (your conditions). SO WHY ARE YOU YET TO REFUND THE WAGER? hungerstyle met your conditions or? Why add more conditions? Is your word any good? Or are you liars? Where you aware he is a "hacker" and "double spender" when u made him the offer? Did you promise to return the funds regardless? So what has changed since then? Why the change of heart? The only one STALLING here is you! If I may ask, why do you keep calling him a hacker? How so? You know what hacking is right? Or do you need me to define it for you? What evidence do you have of him hacking? Did he try breaching your servers? Maybe he tried stealing your coins or wallet passwords? Or do you describe him as such without any evidence whatsoever, just to discredit him further? The only ones keeping coins not belonging to them here is you! FYI, I intend taking this matter outside this forum. I'll start a thread on reddit, have a few gambling blogs sites/websites/forums post about your lies and behaviour. Let's see how smug you are then.

So far what I`m reading are certain issues that are very clear despite the on-going debate.
1. Person A decided to use their own principal of a doublespend 2. Casino confirms the bet of the doublespend. 3. Person A opens a thread talks about bad support issues - creates noise - in chance they credit their initial deposit 4. Direct Bet is requesting a address confirmation (their personal security reasons to follow this address)
Am I missing something here?
But whats bugging me is the lack of transparency on the conversations taken place with the email needs to be presented on this thread so everyones on the same page.

It hasn't been proven that person A intentionally tried to defraud DirectBet. Given the evidence, it's likely they did, but it has not been proven. RHavers response disputes DirectBets judgement successfully: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=717790.msg14993739#msg14993739DirectBet since proved that another doublespend was previously linked to the payout address and therefor considers RHavers statement void. However, the previous doublespend evidence, like the rest of the evidence, is completely circumstantial. Edit: Others have also disputed DB claim (like me), im pointing out RHaver because I think his opinion is the most respected in general.Person A has also stated he would be able to access the funds if they were sent to the original withdraw address. DirectBet is claiming that they are capable of somehow stopping future double spend attempts on their anonymous website by obtaining the identity of one individual. This seems irrational. I believe the only way to avoid this situation is to eliminate the possibility of anyone being able to exploit the system. Not just one. DirectBet has claimed they have no intention of keeping the 36 bitcoin. DirectBet, do you believe you are entitled to the 36 bitcoin? If this isn't resolved soon, I intend to bring a lot more attention to it.

At this point, I agree with TwitchySeal, robinH, techgeek, and others - instead of asking (hungerstyle), tell (all reading the thread). I realize that you may trap hungerstyle into making deceptive statements as you feel you already have, but you can see by the responses, even with those who seem to side with your take on the issue, that they feel it's gone far enough. I believe to retain your credibility as an honest well received sportsbook, you need to present your facts (without revealing secret security measures/proprietary info that you feel you can't). Perhaps you've received some info from others that's supposed to be confidential. But you stated that "...hungerstyle is a hacker...", not "we suspect hungerstyle is a hacker". You've stated that what you believe are his doublespend techniques are repeated time after time and therefore it's not an accidental doublespend. Fine. State your facts. Demonstrate the above. So far you can see that people want more proof that it wasn't an accident or that you're not misinterpreting what occured. Perhaps he's gotten away with doublespends in the past at Directbet or you suspect that he has, or that you've stopped other doublespend attempts. Perhaps you or others are looking for hungerstyle and want some specific info about him. But I doubt you're going to get any more info from him and you can see that some public sentiment is going strongly against you at this point. So it does appear that it's getting to the time to lay your cards on the table. Or else accept the negativity that this case is engendering.

Please note that hungerstyle deliberately deleted certain e-mails and excerpts from the screen capture that he posted. He did it on purpose to make it appear as if he is the victim here.
We worked very hard during the past 2.5 years to build a solid reputation here and were very surprised to see that some members here attacked us without even trying to verify if hungerstyle, an hacker hiding behind a newbie account that was opened solely for this case, is telling the truth.
We posted evidence on this fraud attempt in the official response on post # 7.
We do have additional evidence, and we will post it here after hungerstyle post his version as he told us via e-mail. This is required so that he won't keep changing versions.
hungerstyle knows to speak English very well when he wants to. His English was very fluent when he threatened to attack our website.
