You’ve been warned, provide the correct social security number with your Full Tilt Poker claim or face being denied a refund.
The Garden City Group serves as claim administrator on behalf of the U.S. Government in order to facilitate payouts to those owed monies by Full Tilt after they were forced to exit the American market in April 2011.
Millions of dollars were owed to customers of Full Tilt Poker and, to date, the process of repayment has gone smoothly for the most part.
From the Garden City Group:
"Petitioners with an incomplete or incorrect Social Security Number will have their petition recommended for denial," the statement read. "As explained in FAQ Number 17 on this website, prior to the payment of funds to a petitioner, GCG is required to provide the petitioner's Social Security or other Taxpayer Identification Number to the government in order to offset and collect any qualifying debts currently listed in the Treasury Offset Program."
Two co-founders of what was once the 2nd largest online poker company were indicted for money laundering and bank fraud. One of those individuals, Raymond Bitar, is suffering from a fatal heart disease.
