Poker Player Confesses to Scamming Others Out of Nearly $300K

Poker player Justin Archuleta has admitted to scamming the poker community out of nearly $300,000.  

Archuleta didn’t exactly mince words in confessing his wrongdoing, posting on the TwoPlusTwo.com forum: "I, Justin Archuleta, out of sound mind, body, and soul, admit to the theft of many poker players by using digital means of many scamming techniques: key-loggers, Chase Quickpay scam, PayPal scam, DDOS internet interference, third-party scams, chip dumping, credit card thefts, and Two Plus Two account breaching. Many of these I committed myself, and some with the help of another individual who had connection to Two Plus Two accounts in which I bought and gave a percentage of what I received from a scam."
