I'm not sure if this is the right section to post this.
Does anybody know if this guy progambler is legit or just another scammer?
Here is one of his posts he placed over at vlsroulette.

I saw/was sent the same message
It involved giving him your password, for me thats a big NO NO !
Why doesn't he password protects his bot and then *HE* gives you the password?
As a general rule never give out you password of anything to anyone, specially anything financial-related.
The scheme could as well be:
Give me your password
I drain your account by taking 100%.
Then I change your password.
Now that's finding a winning method to him.
A 3rd possibility is that he has a regular losing method with fluctuations like every other method.
Heck, even if he uses something as simple as the martingale, with enough steps he would have +98% chance of winning and that can allow him to keep afloat for a while
50% of the 98% times it wins.
Having to pay 0% on losses. Just disappearing and ignoring the anger messages.
Again, a winning system for him!
As for you the player, in such an event you are simply screwed and enjoy no protection whatsoever to your funds.
(i.e. no casino will attend a complain in the type: I gave my casino password to someone else, he depleted my account and I want a refund from your casino... (link:://rouletteforum.cc/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif))

That's what I was thinking as well. It would be a different story if he was to use his own bankroll.
I actually replied to his email and said that I thought he was going to supply the bank roll and then use my account to play on. I didn't get a reply. ;D
I guess that says enough. :)
By the way, even if you allege that someone brute-forced your login, they have logs of everything and can know instantly if you were hacked by an attack or not.
i.e. 1 single try to "guess" your password from another country doesn't really qualify as an argument to back-up a dictionary brute-forcing attack from that user to your account's login...
It's on their logs.

Ok, err, I tell people to give my there password to their BV accounts.
This is the only way for me to fund their accounts.
I tell them to change their passwords afterwards.
Or at least sometimes I tell them, when I remember to.

I guess it boils down to trust.
I woudn't advice anyone to trust the guys furple is asking about.
Apart from NEVER giving out a password there's another thing...the writer's English is basically at a native-speaker level.
He sems to imply he's French without actually stating that.
If he is, then the English is surprisingly well-written...
All these little things add up and ring big warning bells!
Just be wary guys. Wouldn't like to hear any scamming reports on a matter easily prevented by some basic use of common sense.
Trusting Thomas Grant may be one thing.... this is another thing entirely. Furple I think you know the answer :question:

If this was Thomas I would have been tempted ;D
Frankly if you believe it, there's no hope for you :LoL:
