opening resignations?!

Hello, I recently discovered some unusual wins in the public game history of one of my opponents. After a few moves his opponent mysteriously resigns the game. This player has a loss record and has only played against him. My suspicion is that the player is using a second account to resign games to himself and boost his own rating. What can be done about this?

A sample game: 1.c4..d5 2.cxd5 black resigns?!

post one of the games

Game 1964970

forget all that, that only works when you delete a game. your right it does look a bit odd. maybe he didn't know just to delete the games or maybe........

Here is another

Game 1964959

yep. he's got a buncha two move games against this name AND another one, looks fishy allright.

You're right, I just looked at that players history and there is a game with another player.. so maybe it is just some kid that resigns instead of deleting the game after his opponent exchanges pawns with him

Yes, there are four or more games like that. Strange.

Its not really strange. hes trying to raise his rating by playing himself on multiple accounts which violates section 3c.

The one receiving the points is TheChampIsHere and is the one benefiting from the fraud of his.

If they find a pattern of IP-adresses, login-times etc, they can easily 'prove' that something fishy is going on.

Gatecrasher has seen it i think hes a game mod so report it to him....and see what he does
