Last week, Gambling911.com reported on Redditors expressing how Daily Fantasy Sports operator Fliff had apparently been confiscating some accounts after accusing players of multi-accounting.
One might have assumed this was something affecting your typical DFS player, who is not necessarily a crossover to true sports betting.
But on Tuesday night's Vegas Horse Pools Spaces broadcast we learned that Fliff was actually the hot button conversation at a recent gathering of sports gamblers in Las Vegas.
Gambling911.com's Chris Costigan and Prime Sports Adam Bjorn both appeared on the program.

Meanwhile, Fliff reported account confiscations remain a topic of discussion over at Reddit.
Has anyone been paid out this year from accounts that fliff limited/banned toward the end of last year? That seems to be the general procedure is that Fliff is just confiscating all of those account balances under "suspicions" of multiple account usage. Note the emphasis on suspicions because they have zero evidence or any way of proving multiple accounts in almost all cases.
I am in the process of initiating a lawsuit if Fliff legal team does not respond to me in the next few days.
Just wondering if anyone has had any luck being paid after Fliff has closed their account for their fraudulent investigations. Note there are two different issues here. One is limiting the account and prohibiting further play, and then restricting the account to 5k per month withdrawals (assuming for liquidity issues on Fliff's end). This is lame but not encroaching on illegality or ToS violation.
The second is action from Fliff is closing the account and confiscating the account balance (or really just ignoring that it's there). I really do think they are pulling a little bit of an exit scam since this is actually wrecking their reputation. Their actions show that this is all about $$ and hoping the lawsuit costs outweigh the gains from not having to pay winners.
