High-Stakes Poker Players Join Forces to Uncover Extortion Scheme

Poker Players Join Forces: Benjamin “Blank Check Ben” Lee, and “Wes Side” Wesley Fei, set aside their differences

Allegations of fraud have led two well-known hustler Casino Live poker players to join forces. Benjamin “Blank Check Ben” Lee, and “Wes Side” Wesley Fei, have set aside their differences and worked together to expose an extortion attempt. In a blog post Lee explained that an anonymous person accused Wesley of scamming them out of $250,000 in a cryptocurrency scheme. This individual later contacted Lee, seeking help to expose Wesley’s alleged crimes.

The accuser claimed that Wesley offered money to turn the tables and target Lee as the instigator of a character assassination campaign. Concerned about potential damage to his reputation, Lee decided to assist the accuser in exposing Wesley. He initially sent $1,000 but soon learned that the anonymous person was actually Russell Thamer, a London-based recruiter.

Thamer is exposed as The Extortioner

Thamer accused Wesley of sending individuals to burglarize his home. Wesley denied the allegations and hinted that Lee was involved. Lee continued to fund the project by sending another $1,500.

Thamer claimed to have evidence of immigration fraud by Wesley, demanding £80,000 for it, but Lee declined the offer. Thamer later reduced the amount but still asked for money, which Lee refused to pay. After the anonymous blog was published, Thamer reported receiving threats and believed he was being stalked, possibly by associates of Wesley.

To ensure his safety, Lee hired security and sent £22,500 in cryptocurrency to obtain the supposed immigration fraud evidence. Both Lee and Wesley have evidence of Thamer’s attempts to extort and blackmail them, even after the scam was exposed. In the end, Lee and Wesley, once rivals, discovered that they were both victims of an extortion scheme.
