Roger Ver's Bitcoin Games - possible scam

[bigzohan]

What happened
I had BTC on Bitcoin Games account (games.bitcoin.com). Yes, that one by Roger Ver. On Friday evening I tried to withdraw entire balance to my wallet and instead of usual message got this one - "This withdrawal must be manually approved by an administrator. This usually only takes a few minutes, after which you will get your Bitcoins. We are sorry for the delay".
After that, BTC has dissapeared from Bitcoin Games account, but there is still nothing on the address I ordered withdrawal to. 5 days already left!
I tried to contact the Games team by the only contact they published on their website - email games(at)bitcoin.com. I have sent them 2 letters, but never got answer.

Scammer website
https://games.bitcoin.com/

Amount Scammed: 0.2 BTC or ~2.300 USD
Username of Bitcoin Games account is 4ceb8d9074.
I can give access to account to a trusted person if required.

Additional notes
As they ignore my emails, I created a thread on their forum - https://forum.bitcoin.com/technical-support/bitcoin-games-money-dissapeared-after-manual-withdrawal-t120487.html
I also create a duplicate post on BitcoinTalk, because this all starts to look like scam. I am really worried, so I made this situation public. I ask Bitcoin.com team to return me my funds. Thanks.

This is very surprising for a big name to lose its reputation for a mere $2500, and 5 days is such a long time for an answer, they prefer not to answer and just ignore it, they have no idea that all their works all these will vanish, I'll follow this report, before supporting a flag that will be raised here.

Ver himself is a scammer. Created BCH and selling it to people saying this is the real bitcoins. He is using bitcoin's brand image to sell his BCH shit in bitcoin.com site.

Anyway, sorry to hear that you are going through this. I hope you get your money. I see a moderator responded you in their forum.

I will follow this up for you.
Support emails should be answered within 24 hours, although when we are busy it can be a little longer.

Roger Ver has no credibility and BCASH is not the real Bitcoin

Can you provide screenshots/emails etc. to back up your accusations? I fail to see any evidence in what you posted.

Ok, Do you have a transaction history to show that you had those coins on that account and that you did not spend it on the games? They will come back with all kinds of excuses to justify their actions, so you should make screenshots of all your transactions and the withdrawal request.

We can give them the benefit of the doubt, because it is a large operation and not a lot of money, but it might be a corrupt employee and not Roger Ver himself. So let's give them a fair chance to explain themselves, before we blame individuals who might not be involved. <I do not like Roger Ver, but I think we should first give themselves an opportunity to explain themselves, before we start pointing fingers at individuals>

They have confirmed that my problem did exist, on their forum.
Problem is now resolved, they have sent me the full amount to requested address.
The only sad thing is that it required me to bring the situation to public.
Thanks everyone

There was no scam with games.bitcoin.com
Some withdrawals get flagged for manual review.
That is all.

In regards to Bitcoin Cash, it clearly has more Bitcoin-ness about it than the BTC version of Bitcoin does.
I made a whole video detailing it as well:

And don't forget that the entire BTC project was highjacked by Blockstream and their devs.

It's good to read that you got your funds back if you did not make it public I doubt if they will address this issue, it's one bad feedback for Ver's Bitcoin games, people now will have second thought using their platform, if a platform is credible they will address every issue as they come, and they will do everything not to make it public.
