Very sneaky. Apology and action in 15 minutes eh! If this was some "rogue employee" they would surely have had a hard job "busting" him/her, since they would have been knowingly risking their job were their actions found out by the boss.
It seems Plexgaming had pretty much instant access to the records for this account, and were able to bypass this presumed "Office Einstein" and take action by turning the account over to Bryan. Later, it seems they reconsidered, instead retaining the followers, but changing the account name, and leaving behind a new "Casinomeister" account.
In short, they acted "rogue", and it appears that the bosses were "in on it", because of the speed of response once the issue blew up in their face. They may be sorry, but sorry they got caught, not sorry they did it, and they are going to keep hold of the spoils of this action through this manoeuvre to keep the followers. These followers were duped, and unless Plexgaming tell them otherwise, they may STILL think that Plexgaming is somehow acting with the Meister's permission, and that some form of "accreditation" might exist.
Is it possible to identify all the followers of the account changed to Plexgaming, and let them know they were duped, or does this have to go through the Plexgaming account, and rely on trust that they will pass it on to the illicitly gained followers.
I wonder if I have been impersonated on Twitter, or any of the other sites for that matter. I can't see how any profit could be made, but someone could certainly trash my reputation.
Maybe I should employ my nieces and nephew on monitoring duties, they are far more likely to know how these sites work than me. I could pay them a bounty for anyone they bust
