I am here to share with you the knowledge I have about Mr. Steel
Back in March 2010, I met a person from craigslist who was looking for a poker investor. He needed an investor because he claimed he lost all of his money to a guy he was a roommate with while he was in college.
He said that the roommate would borrow money from him, and would give him back money plus interest, but the last time he sent him money, he never returned it. I was told it was over $50K
So as I speak to this guy to decide if I would back him, he tells me that his roommate friend has a great deal. The roommate would be able to get funding of $250K from an investor if he was able to show $10K in his bank account as a VOD verification of deposit. The guy says that his roommate has $9K and is $1K short to make the deal, and that if I would put up the $1K, I would be helping everyone out, and would be paid for my help.
I told the guy that I was a retired cop and that if I did help, I would want to get as much info as possible about the roommate, plus speak to him. He agreed and gave me his name, phone number, and email address.
The first thing I did was google all the info I got, and right away, scams about sport betting, and roulette popped up. I called the guy with the findings, and I guess he was just naïve, because he didn’t even think it was him, and that it wasn’t such a big deal. This was unreal, because he was screwed out of a lot of money, and now he wanted a complete stranger to give money to a scammer. I told him no, and that was it for that.
I did invest with the guy, and he also tried to scam me, but I quickly squashed that idea, and gave the guy a second chance, which brings me to June 26th.
I got an email from the guy who wanted me to back him in poker. He again told me of a great opportunity with the scammer again. This time he needed $5K to get a $65K loan. He had $4K and needed $1K more.
He would give me back $2K for my help, and then the poker player would have stake money. I once again told the guy that he was crazy to even bother with the scammer, but he insisted that it was legit.
I told the guy to give me his info again, as I deleted it from the first time, and he got insulted that I had to investigate him again. He said I should just do it, but I wasn’t doing anything without the info.
This time I found the info on the baccarat forum, and it was fresh stuff. I told the guy what I found and asked him to question him about it, and he was given one excuse after another, and told that he wasn’t selling any baccarat stuff anymore. I told him that I was going to call the scammer myself, and when I spoke to him, I told him I would come in person to give him the money, and he said it would be fine, with one exception. I told him I wanted to see the accident report from the day he was going to meet DAYTRADER at Foxwoods. He agreed, and said he would fax it over. I never heard from him again. The guy told me that the scammer could not find the report. I told him to tell me where the accident occurred, and I would call the department and get a copy myself. The guy told me that the scammer got the money from somewhere else.
Bottom line, Thegoal has no teams, no money, nothing. I contacted my friend at the NY office of the FBI last week with the info, and how I almost was a victim. They will investigate, but its not 100% they will prosecute, but be warned, do not give any money to HASAAN STEEL, he is bad news.
