Heard there were a lot of scam sites, but never had to deal with anything like that. Pretty much play on the more reputible sites. I wish you luck in getting any $$ you had vested or won. By the way! Been a member since 09 and this is your 1st post. Should spend some time here in the BRM forum. Learn a lot about pertinent information that could assist problems or improve skills in all areas.

dozn01, your response to his post and criticism of his lack of activity is hardly encouraging the guy to post again is it. Forum posts aren't always relevant or informative; Sometimes they are just a sounding board for people getting things off their chest. Poor show mate. give the guy a break eh!

well said force sometimes it feels like some ppl are overextended in their daily routine that they just use the internet/forum to blow off ones steam.
if you read properly then you see that he received the email before 31jan and requested a cashout, else it wouldnt say "its been forwarded to teh payout department in" in the 2nd email. at end he named all the skins that are on merge network, guess thats what he meant with "be carefully" now its up to you what you believe or what you gonna do with this information, but theres no reason to be offending..

I have some sympathy for you, I know what it's like when you get busy and forget to do something by the deadline. Unfortunately by the sounds of it you may be out of luck.
