Just a heads up to you guys. It’s pretty evident with Varkeyboy that his email gathering and PM endeavours in this thread was the prelude to selling picks - that he procured from other cappers - to members of the RX and perhaps a wider reaching audience.
I’m bringing you this info to warn you, and help prevent the good members of the rx possibly being scammed by this guy, which I would hate to see.
You may wonder how I know about this, or what I am actually going on about. Well, firstly I have seen the evidence of his skulduggery with my own eyes. Here’s what happened…..
As mentioned, Varkeyboy can be seen on the RX arranging to PM people and email them via personal email addresses. These people in the same threads had previously expressed a desire to pay for Pennywise’s baseball picks. Is he seizing on an opportunity to make money? Most likely.
Varkeyboy then began to solicit RX members for business – selling other cappers picks, including Pennywise's– using the RX PM function. One of the RX members he began to solicit for the sale of picks, was “fwinfieldjr”. Now unbeknownst to Varkeyboy, "fwinfieldjr" was an account that belonged to “momoneynoproblem”, who as you may or may not know is the former RX member and now owner of the private forum where Pennywise, amongst others, posts his plays.
So to clarify, Varkeyboy was soliciting for business, the owner of the forum where Pennywise posts his plays. This initial RX PM is as below:
(Note for privacy and common decency, the name and phone number have been redacted)
Hey, this is (name redacted for privacy) AKA varkeyboy. I'm not sure if you followed in on the winnings from Pennywise last few years. I do have access. Shoot me a text on my cell at (cell phone number redacted for privacy). I just don't want to talk about things on here and go back and forth....and would rather talk privately. I'll look fwd to hearing from you!
Cheers,
VARKEY
As you can see, he explicitly states he has access to Pennywise’s picks, and requests that "fwinfieldjr" text him to discuss off forum. To me, he knows he is doing wrong and does not want to be found out by the RX mods by having protacted discussions by PM.
"Mo/fwinfieldjr "then texts Varkeyboy on the number provided to garner more information about his dodgy deeds. Here is Varkeyboy’s response to the text from Mo requesting more info about what he is selling.
Sup Fwinfield? It's too hard to spend time on all these forums...esp with a busy family and work schedule.
I have 2 guys from theRX that ****** me $100 for sending them PW baseball plays.
Obviously this is very private information and don't want it to be known. They both agreed I deserve $100 for my efforts and sending plays out daily and usually early.
Let me know what you think...if it's too much for u...no hard feelings. I'm a straight up kind of guy, and absolutely hate drama.
In addition to this, and it is quite comical, he even attempted to sell Mo the very plays that Mo posts at his forum, for $50. I think that's very conclusive evidence that he was pilfering to order and would sell anyone's plays to make himself a handsome sum.
So, aside from using the RX to tout stolen plays, I just wanted to let the couple of guys (possibly more) who had agreed to pay him $100 a month for Pennywise’s plays that Varkeyboy no longer has access to the forum where Pennywise posts. Thus if he promises you Pennywise's baseball plays, he is lying to you. He no longer has access to the forum anymore. I know for a fact that he was banned there yesterday.
If that was not bad enough, Varkeyboy could not handle the fact that he was banned by Mo and subsequently let his actions sink to lower levels. You see, Varkeyboy recently vouched go for a guy to join Mo's forum.....A guy using the name "RobertLee". It's a possibility this account was a Varkeyboy duplicate. Then, shortly after Varkeyboy's banning, Mo began to receive text messages of a threatening nature from "RobertLee". "Let me back into the forum....you don't know what I'm capable of" e.t.c.
How did this guy get Mo's personal phone number? Not from Mo. So from who? From Varkeyboy? That would seem very plausible and reasonable.
The whole thing was as despicable as it gets.
I know first hand this guy is as sneaky as they come so don't fall for his lies and his scams. I can't sit on this info knowing that he could be trying to scam the good people here as we speak. You are entitled to know of the ill deeds of the guy trying to take your money. Perhaps the mods here will now intervene for your protection.
Take care everyone. Hope you have a good baseball season.
Yeah well it used to be normal around here ... but as most know, we won't allow the circus to continue in the Baseball Forum

I always knew Varkeyboy was ONLY out for himself and a complete sleeze ball. Always preaching this...."We are all here to help each other guys" All that team bullshit talk. Fuck this loser.
Now that I have read this I am certainly getting my PM privileges back now. And I wont stop asking until I do now.
http://www.therxforum.com/showthread.php?t=1050232&page=22
This is from my baseball thread last year.
I won 24+ units overall, picked up 59 units over the last 4 months of the season. Didn't use bullshit 5 or 10* plays, they were mainly 1 unit plays with an occasion 2U play.
I don't remember or care what the other guy's record was, it was dishonest record keeping.
Thank you.
Yes, I am learning that some people here are deceitful and dishonest. For example, varkeyboy. I hope you don't fall into that catagory, and that I am missing something:
Earlier in this thread, you said that your record was better that pennywise. But is looks like that just isn't true. His record was better than yours.
Someone named incubus kept track of his record, and I don't see why an independent party would be dishonest in record keeping. Especially since it looks like he posted pennywise results and record in a timely fashion. So, if this incubus was being dishonest about record keeping, as you claim, wouldn't the many people following pw have pointed it out?
Here's what Incubus posted for pennywise last year:
OVERALL YTD SIDES & TOTALS & RUNLINES = 106-62-3 ATS (+31.53 units) at 63.10%
Here's where I found this: http://www.therxforum.com/showthread.php?t=1064823&page=7
I went to the page link you provided for your record, and saw that your overall record was 431-436 (+24.53) 49.7%
So, your record was not better that pennywise record, as you claim.
Also, I understand pennywise stopped posting here before the season was over, and I have heard that he was scorching hot the rest of the season wherever else he posted.
I did see that, later in the season, you got hot. But like you said earlier in this thread, the thing to do is to follow someone's every bet. And don't hop from person to person when you think someone else is getting hot. Don't take this the wrong way, but if I bet the same units every bet (which I plan to do), I would have statistically done about the same by flipping a coin for each game, than by following you last year.
I am just trying find someone here to follow who won more than 50% of their picks last year (the more over 50%, the better of course), and who is honest and has integrity. Looks like my search continues.
Saturday, October 1
New York Yankees +103
Kansas City +118
Boston +102 (2U)
Sunday, October 2
Houston +114 (2U)
Los Angeles/San Francisco UNDER 7.5 (-108)
New York Yankees +131
Minnesota +226
Detroit/Atlanta UNDER 7.5 (-108)
Season Record: 431-436 (24.53)
Totals: 178-164 (-8.93)
ML: 196-204 (22.08)
RL: 57-67 (11.38)
Limped to the finish, losing around 6U final week. But a tremendous last month winning 17 Units.
From Monday June 6 thru the end of the season - the last 4 months of the season - I won 59 units. Mainly with 1 unit plays.
As for the person saying we shouldn't post records, that's just ridiculous. When you post 5X and 10X plays, it needs to be reflected in the record. Otherwise, any fool can post daily and just play 10X or 50X or whatever X unit plays. How do you know if you should follow that person? Some people just want to keep a record for themselves.
Another reason to keep detailed records is to know what you are good at, and what you are not good at. Are you better picking favorites? Dogs? Totals? One interesting thing to notice about my records is that I was below 50% on ML plays, but picked up 22+ units. Baseball is a tough game if you just focus on favorites. That extra juice when you lose hurts.
A very solid year, and over the last 4 months as solid as anyone. Even the great PW.
On to the playoffs.
And also, varkey screams bloody murder bitching about people posting anything "negative" in his thread that contains 0 original picks of his own. then he's gutless enough to go into thekids NBA thread and take a stab at the guy, who is doing quite well, in the same manner that he criticizes. Hypocrit. And the punk still even after months of being called out I mean it's fucking obvious, looking at everyone else's threads and cherry picking plays still tries to take credit for them like nobody notices?Always posting little quips like he's taking the "high road" and too mature to argue the kids a fucking joke and this story doesn't surprise me one bit
Mobb while we dont always agree I knew you were not the culprit of "stealing" the clowns plays. The guys got all paranoid and started their top secret rogue forum and made Varkey one of the original members because they knew he would come over here and rub it in our faces. Not suprised he tried to make a buck off and betray that crew.
