| Jun 21, 2016 at 5:55 | comment | added | genealogyxie | @SmokeDispenser then why didn't the hacker disable email notifications for Zynga Poker? | |
| Jun 21, 2016 at 4:53 | comment | added | Tobi Nary | Because that would indicate something is wrong to the legitimate user, @genealogyxie. Keeping the compromise undetected is often desirable. | |
| Jun 21, 2016 at 2:35 | comment | added | genealogyxie | Why didn't the hacker prevent the mom from accessing the real account (by changing the password, recovery phone + email address, etc.) so she couldn't lock the hacker out? | |
| Apr 18, 2016 at 14:08 | comment | added | Selenog | @bd33 blog.games.com/2012/07/30/zynga-online-gambling-2013 seems to indicate they do offer real gambling which explains the 40 dollars in the context of this answer. Given the real gambling I do want to note to the OP that in some countries online gambling is only legal by certified casino's and I believe that is the case for Belgium. | |

| Apr 14, 2016 at 19:15 | comment | added | bd33 | If this is the Zynga Facebook poker I am familiar with, the money won/lost is not real. You can buy play money chips with real money, closer to buying things in Farmville or Clash of Clans than actual poker, but there's nothing to be won in the actual game or any way to withdraw the money. | |
