You might wonder why there is this page. Well, I also have the services of Michael Schuett, alias adopted USAG24 Inc. and has been cheated a lot of money. Meanwhile, there are quite a lot of people who feel the same way.The people who have resisted and have published their case as the Internet, were then put massive pressure from Michael Schuett and most have agreed to the cancellation of their websites. This of course happened after agreeing a settlement, for example, was paid some money from Michael Schuett so that the matter is created from the world. Most of these people have only received a fraction of the lost money again and had to return the sites to take from the net.

Now for all we know this is just one disgruntled ex-colleague. But he\’s had a twitter feed set up for the past three months just to track the whereabouts of this one person. @usag24betrug has three followers.
And here\’s a half-hour lifestyle documentary on Michael Schuett, apparently chronicling his move to Florida:
Very strange. Might online poker sites be a victim of a fraud here? Or just tangled up with the wrong guy? I\’m still not sure what to make of it all, but I do get the sense now that this situation may turn out to be about more than online poker …
