My older brother is freaking out because he has 7 accounts on a poker site and he plays in freeroll tournaments, he’s afraid he’s gonna get arrested for fraud. What could happen if he is found out doing this? I think it’s kind of ridiculous of what he’s thinking
it’s on freerolls and it does work for him
haha, just trying to ease his mind, he’s a worrier

You’re lying about something if he’s using the same computer for all 7 accounts, playing for real money and playing in the same tourns/rooms.
Simply cannot do it. - They have your IP-address and you’d be busted and barred the second you tried.
So….If you posted this question to see if this little idea would work…. #1 - Don’t think for a second that you’re the first to think of this. - It might work on Yahoo answers but it aint gonna work there.
DON’T!!!

The chance of him getting arrested: very slim (it won’t happen).
The chance of him getting all 7 of his accounts suspended, all of his winnings taken away, and his IP banned from said poker site: very likely (although, depending on how big the poker site is, it might take them a while to find him out).

There is NO WAY he will be arrested, but the site may decide to suspend any accounts played from your computers/IP address.
