Title: Touch Games Deal Reversal Sought by Skywind Amid Fraud Accusations
Skywind Files Revised Fraud Claims Against In Touch Games
In a significant turn of events, gaming technology company Skywind has submitted a revised set of fraud claims against In Touch Games (ITG) over alleged discrepancies in a "super-user code" and regulatory misrepresentation, which first surfaced in July 2021. This move follows Skywind's allegation in 2024 that it had been deceived into a multimillion-dollar acquisition of ITG.
The new claims, documented on May 9, 2025, suggest that a modification to ITG's code on July 16, 2021, resulted in the automatic deletion of all records of activity associated with deleted customer images. Skywind asserts that this code was intentionally designed to enable and conceal improper and fraudulent activity, including the RSM Audit Fraud.
Skywind argues that ITG's sellers, Simon and Yu-Lin Wilson, and their entity Ruskin Properties, provided warranties in the acquisition agreement, implying they had reasonable grounds to believe these warranties were accurate. This is not the first time Skywind has taken legal action against ITG's former owners.
The claims further allege that ex-ITG corporate development manager, Micolas Burton, discovered forged documents during a review ahead of an independent RSM audit in August 2021. System logs showed a sudden surge in image deletions from August 26 to September 10, 2021, which Skywind suggests were enabled by the "super-user code" to erase digital traces.
On February 4, 2022, Burton submitted a whistleblower letter accusing ITG of fraud, but retracted it shortly after a reportedly coercive meeting with Simon Wilson.
Defense Responses
In its re-amended defence, submitted prior to the latest round of Skywind's claims, ITG's founder Simon Wilson denies the existence of any fraudulent activity, whether referred to as the RSM Audit Fraud or otherwise. Wilson also maintains that he was unaware of any data manipulation and is unfamiliar with the concept of a "Super User."
The defense contests Skywind's assertion that the RSM audit was crucial for ITG's continued operation. According to the Wilsons' counter-argument, Skywind's CEO allegedly stated he would complete the deal without any guarantees or warranties.
Regarding Burton's allegations, the defense points out that he retracted his whistleblower letter on the same day it was submitted and claims that no physical threats were made by Wilson to Burton.
The ongoing legal proceedings between Skywind and In Touch Games reveal a complex dispute within the iGaming sector, with no reported resolution as of the latest information. The case highlights the significant implications of such legal issues in the gaming industry.
In the ongoing dispute between Skywind and In Touch Games, the defense, led by In Touch Games' founder Simon Wilson, denies any involvement in fraudulent activities related to finance and business matters, including the RSM Audit Fraud, and claims ignorance about the "super-user code."
Skywind, on the other hand, alleges that improper financial maneuvers, potentially concealed by the "super-user code," led to the deletion of crucial records during their acquisition of In Touch Games, raising questions about the integrity of their business dealings.
