Smokace Casino - The player's account got closed due to a money laundering.

My account was blocked due to money laundering, I have everything in order, I want my money back. They tell me that they sent me an email but I didn't get anything and they never answer by email and support tells me to communicate via email.

Hello Martin121,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint and I'm really sorry to hear about your issue with Smokace Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few more question before we would move forward.

Could you please advise if your account is already verified and if yes, since when exactly? Did you use any bonuses in the casino? When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what was it about? What exactly did they mean by money laundering?

Looking forward to your answer.

Regards,

Nick

I have been playing for 1 month with no problem until yesterday when I played and they closed me. For some reason, saying money laundering, I spoke to support and they told me that for money laundering, but no more information that I spoke via email but never responded by email

Hello Martin121,

Can you please clarify how much was your balance when your account got closed?

I don't remember the exact amount but it was approximately 77,000 thousand Argentine pesos

Thank you Martin121 for all the information provided so far. As we will need more details from the casino, your complaint will be now forwarded to my colleague Stefan (stefan.m@casino.guru) who will be assisting you from now on.

Wish you best luck resolving it.

Dear Stefan,

We have reviewed the complaint of player Martin121 in detail.

Here are the details of the player's account 

1)The player Martin121 2023-05-12 deposited 90000ARS to his game account using a prepaid card.

2) Player Martin121 on 2023-05-12 applied for withdrawal of 77800ARS to skrill wallet.

On 2023-05-12, additional verification of player Martin121 account was initiated based on suspicious activity on the player's account.

The additional verification was initiated according to the rule item: 

2.4.1 The finance department may postpone processing a withdrawal request due to additional verification.

2023-05-12 having studied the history of the client's game Risk Department found the following:

According to the regulations of our casino to withdraw funds the client must make x3 of the deposit amount to be able to withdraw funds.

1) All deposits of player Martin121 were wagered in Roulette VIP/Spaceman/ games with maximum betting returns. (All betting actions were made intentionally to make the deposit turnover x3 according to the rules of our casino), with the difference in bets and losses or winnings did not exceed 10-15% of the balance of the client, and more than 95% of customer bets were made exactly this way.

2) Player Martin121 made a deposit with a prepaid card, and withdrawal of funds was requested on the skrill wallet. 

We have reasonable evidence to claim a violation of AML policy, which is in gross violation of project regulations.

Based on these findings, the Casino Risk Department has ruled that the player purposefully carried out all actions to launder funds.

According to the rules of our casino:

11. Casino reserves the right to monitor all transactions with a view to prevent money laundering. Furthermore, Casino reserves the right to examine with special attention, and to the extent possible, the background and purpose of any complex or large transactions and any transactions which are particularly likely, by their nature, to be related to money laundering.

Betting activity will be monitored for irregular patterns.

2023-05-12 player account Martin121 was closed without the right to open and the balance was canceled due to violations of the rules of our casino, according to paragraph rules:

14.6. In that case, if we should close your account because of collusion, cheating, fraud, money laundering, other criminal activities, or breach of the Terms of Use, which damaged us or any other third party, the balance of Your Account will be non-refundable and deemed to be forfeited.

2023-05-15 An email was sent to the player with detailed information about the reason for closing his account to his email: mer*******ro@gmail.com.

As you can see all actions in relation to the player's account were performed strictly within the rules of our casino, which are publicly available and are not hidden from anyone.

Best regards.

Smokace Casino Risk Department.

I want to clarify, you do not allow the earnings to be withdrawn by astro pay the prepaid card, second game for fun to spaceman I put the money I earned back, I do not

I sent no mail game several times a day to spaceman I lost and won several times. I don't do money laundering, I have a paycheck that accredits my funds, they would have to use the same method for deposit/withdrawal. It would be nice if they made another rule, it is not allowed to play the same game several times and bet as you want, if I play for fun to pass the time and have the adrenaline of playing with real money. I do the same method to play, withdraw and deposit again. I did not do any money laundering, I have a paycheck so you can verify yourselves. I request that they evaluate me again and communicate or leave a contact number with said department, since they do not respond by email. Kind regards

Dear Martin121,

I have reviewed the provided transaction history and game log. You have deposited all the funds via Astropay and have withdrawn all funds via Skrill. You have withdrawn similar amounts as the deposit amounts and this behaviour doesn't look like a recreational play.

Due to the aforementioned reasons, this complaint will now be rejected. 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,

Stefan
