whatwonder Dustin (@sts_dustin telegram) is a scammer
I'd like to inform about scamming incident with Agent Dustin / Turnstyle Club / Massiv Union (Deposits and Winnings Confiscated). This happened last year (2025 in the beginning, I knew Dustin from 2020)
Scamming Agent: Dustin (Telegram: @sts_dustin, whatwonder on twoplustwo)
Scamming Club: Turnstyle – Club ID 995680
Union: Massiv, Evans as head of the union
Honest club in Massiv that was involved: Jack of Diamonds – Club ID 883545
Short Summary
I initially played in Turnstyle Club (ID 995680) under agent Dustin (@sts_dustin).
Later, I also played in Jack of Diamonds (ID 883545), which is in the same Massiv union.
Due to unclear communication from the agent, I misunderstood that I was not allowed to play in Turnstyle specifically, while in reality the union claims I was not allowed to play in the entire union.
Because of this misunderstanding:
Massiv union head Evans confiscated all my winnings
Turnstyle club confiscated my deposits
Jack of Diamonds club acted honestly and returned my deposits (the union only confiscated the winnings)
Agent Dustin lied multiple times, did not guarantee my deposits as he said in the beginning, and accused me of cheating, even though the issue was caused by miscommunication about whether I could play or not.
The union claims the confiscation is because I am from Lithuania, which they say is a banned location, yet this was not clearly communicated beforehand and this rule is not always strictly applied. I have heard afterwards that there are people playing from "restricted" areas (the club and the union itself is a grey area and owners hide they identity to avoid jail time. Running unlicensed gambling can lead to criminal charges in many countries.
In some places it can be treated as illegal gambling operation or money laundering.)
So Turnstyle confiscating deposits is harder to justify and agent Dustin didnt return my deposits when he promissed in the beginning.
Full Story:
I was originally playing with the account:
ogversion – ID 5939-2725
This is the same account I also use in Cleveland Club (ID 546745).
While playing in Turnstyle Club (ID 995680) under agent Dustin, I would also occasionally play in Jack of Diamonds (ID 883545), which is known to accept Lithuanian players.
I never had any problems playing with my ogversion account.
At some point one club requested that I switch to a new account.
I contacted all clubs to confirm changing my account from:
ogversion – ID 5939-2725
to
catman101 – ID 2342-0879
All clubs approved the account switch.
I first switched accounts in Turnstyle Club under Dustin.
Shortly after that, I received a message from Dustin saying:
“Catman101 (ID:2342-0879) Player playing from banned country Lithuania”
Because of this message, I believed that Turnstyle specifically did not allow Lithuanian players.
So I requested a cashout from Turnstyle.
However, I later realized I made a mistake:
I requested the cashout from my ogversion account, which only had a few dollars left, instead of requesting the cashout from my catman101 account, where my actual funds were.
The next day, I joined Jack of Diamonds (ID 883545) using my new catman101 account and played there for about a day.
Shortly after, I was blocked from playing again.
Apparently, Massiv union head Evans became upset because he had previously told Dustin that I should not be allowed to play in the union.
Dustin claims he had communicated this, but the message I received was not clear to me, I disnt understand the situation
As a result:
Massiv confiscated all winnings
Turnstyle confiscated my deposits
Jack of Diamonds returned my deposited money but confiscated the winnings
Agent Dustin failed to clearly communicate the restriction
He allowed the account change to proceed
He did not guarantee my deposits as he promissed
After the situation occurred, he accused me of cheating.
Turnstyle confiscated my deposits entirely
Only Jack of Diamonds behaved fairly and returned my deposit
I want to emphasize that:
I did not attempt to cheat
I misunderstood the restriction due to poor communication
I acted in good faith
One club (Jack of Diamonds) acknowledged this by returning my deposit
However, Turnstyle and agent Dustin kept my money, which I consider unfair, dishonest and scammish behavior.
3377.68 was the deposit held by Turnstyle club and 1983 was held by the Massiv union.
I was playing 5/10 NL holdem squid and ran really good.

I had the exact same problem with the same agent. Eventually the Union told him to return my deposit and he did it.
This is a messy situation, and I get why you're frustrated, but I need to be direct: posting scam accusations online without clear resolution is risky territory, especially with unlicensed gambling operations where the legal landscape is already murky. The core issue seems real—miscommunication about whether you could play in one club versus the whole union, leading to confiscations. Jack of Diamonds handling it fairly and returning your deposit suggests the problem isn't universal across Massiv, which is something. It’s a bit like what you sometimes see with platforms such as Find out more where different operators or environments can have slightly different rules even under a similar umbrella, leading to confusion if the boundaries aren’t clearly understood. In both cases, the lack of clarity at the start is usually what creates most of the downstream issues and disputes.
