I registered on September 24th. I deposited and withdrew funds. One day I requested for withdrawal but it asked me for KYC verification, I have given my national passport and live check, it was written that verification was passed. but after 10 hours later I got a email that "your verification is failed". I asked them tell me what's wrong but they don't answer why they stole my money. How can I fail verification if I sent my passport? I am ready to provide any documents, any checks.

1)I sent them my passport and a selfie. (If they need more documents, I am ready to provide them)
2)Total deposit amount is 4,136.23USD, already withdrawn amount is 3,289.75USD. Before verification, the account had 2,200 USD. They stole almost all the money. I was told that I could withdraw 335 dollars. Why exactly this amount, I don't know
3) slots, bets, dice games

Hello there,
Thank you kerosin48 for providing us with all the information. I hope we'll be able to resolve this issue together.

Hello, Peter, Kristina, OP and the CasinoGuru team.
The Original Poster’s (OP’s) KYC attempt wasn’t successful because different people tried to do the KYC during different attempts.
The first KYC attempt was on Nov 11th, and it wasn’t successful. The reason for this is that the only person seen on the camera did not match the provided identification document. The photo on the document and the person on the camera weren’t the same, so the attempt wasn’t successful. In general, during the KYC, the camera takes multiple pictures, which then transform into a collage for us, and on Nov 11th, there was only 1 person seen on the camera, and it did not match the person on the document. Since the attempt wasn’t successful, it wasn’t further manually checked.
On Nov 12th, our team e-mailed the OP, letting them know they had 30 days to provide all necessary documentation and complete the KYC (2nd attached image)
Separately, while not in correlation with KYC, the OP also got several restrictions from our Sportsbook provider, with the latest restriction coming on Nov 12th, limiting the maximum amount OP could bet on the Sportsbook.
The 2nd KYC attempt occurred on Dec 2nd. From the photos/collage we have from this, 2 different people were trying to complete verification. In one collage, it’s the same person from the KYC attempt on Nov 11th; in another, it’s a 2nd person. The 2nd person’s face matched the identification document provided on Nov 11th and on Dec 2nd, I can confirm that only 1 document was used for KYC. Since the document provided matched one of the people doing the KYC, the attempt was deemed successful, but our security team always manually check successful KYC’s, and in this case, they quickly came to the realisation that on the 1st and 2nd attempts, different people were trying to complete verification.
Since the KYC wasn’t completed successfully, OP was not allowed to withdraw their winning amount, but despite this, they can withdraw their full deposited amount.
I will now attach relevant images of our Terms and Conditions.
In order for us to be able to forward all the proofs (the images from the KYC) to the Casino Guru team on email, we request that OP grant us permission to send these images to Casino Guru, and separately, I imagine Casino Guru team will need similar permission too.
Once we have permission from both OP and the Casino Guru team, we are ready to send the proofs that we have.
Thank you

2) scan Qr code and turn your head at the camera in a circle.
No one except me did these things.
I called my brother to help me with the translation. And he got on camera. But it was not verification.
Imagine the situation. You need to pass verification. You click the button to upload a document. It says you need to upload your passport. You go to another room to get your passport, and at that moment your girlfriend/mom/dad comes into the room. Would this be the reason for the verification failure and confiscation of the winnings?
They were recording what was happening in my apartment. This is not normal.
I ask the casino to provide proof of how the other person passed the live check. How he turned his head in a circle, blinked, etc.
To pass verification, you need to do 2 things:
1) send a passport
2) scan Qr code and turn your head at the camera in a circle.

Thank you for the update FortuneJack Casino representative. We would appreciate if you could provide me with evidence of the second person going through verification. You can forward any information to my email. (peter.c@casino.guru) Thank you in advance for your cooperation!

Casino guru, I ask you to take this issue seriously.
On November 11, I was sitting at the computer. And I wanted to go through verification. I clicked the "upload document" button and the webcam turned on. I had to take a photo of the passport with my webcam. And at that time my brother was in the room. He was sitting next to me. It was not a life check verification. It was the first stage, when you had to take a photo of the passport. Apparently they were recording what was happening in the room when I took a photo of my passport. I did not upload his photo. They did not accept my passport the first time and therefore I could not pass verification. I did not even try to pass the live check. He helped me translate because I don't know English (I use a translator now)
They didn't say my verification failed. I thought I'd upload my passport next time.
On December 2, I uploaded my passport. It was accepted. I scanned the QR code with my phone and turned my face. The account was verified. The withdrawal was closed. I wrote in the chat. They said wait. After 10 hours I received a letter that verification failed.
I didn't try to cheat fortunejack in any way. I'm not stupid, and I understand that you can't upload your documents and let someone else go through the live check. That's idiotic.
As evidence, they will send you screenshots of my brother in the webcam photo. But this was not verification. For verification, you must scan the QR code and do what is written on the screen (turn your head, blink). If they send video evidence where another person passes the live check (turns his head, blinks) I will close this complaint.
I give Fortgunejack permission to publish my data

I apologize, it seems that my closing reply was not posted.
Thank you for providing me with the information FortuneJack Casino representative.
Dear kerosin48, from the evidence provided by the casino it is clear that your brother was the only one present during the first verification. It is an industry standard that one person can only open one account and this situation creates the issue of not being able to determine if your account was used by you or by your brother in your name. With that in mind, we believe the steps the casino has taken to be justified and we will subsequently reject your complaint. Thank you for your understanding, I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you run into any issues with this or any other casino in the future.
Kind regards,
Peter
