A site called “Point Spreads” is now claiming that the AP superuser cheating has been going on for much longer than previously suspected:
“Point-Spreads.com sources in Costa Rica are claiming the Absolute Poker Super-User account scam has been going on for three years and the actual amount that was skimmed from online poker players is estimated at close to $7 million, not the 700k amount that was previously reported.”
I haven’t seen any independent confirmation of this claim, though.
