A guy I knew invited me into a long standing game of picking NFL winners each week -
Just pick the winners no points all 17 weeks
Most wins = wins
All on email, easy to track
He mentioned people need to send him the money by week 4 or be disqualified
I sent mine early - confirmed he got it
It was like $75 to get in
First year In and I won, first place was around $750
I talk to him to get my money, he diverts the conversation to invite me in another bet for only $25 to get in for the playoffs only.
I thought ok cool $25 and only a few weeks of playoffs.
Never mentioned sending a check, never crossed my mind, he had $750 that belonged to me.
I didn’t win the second bet
No check arrives, when I call for the $750 minus the $25 he said because I never sent in the $25 for the second bet I was disqualified for everything
Pretty upset at first, then I realized this just exposed him to see who he was and it wasn’t worth it. Never seen him again
