La fois où les gendarmes ont débarqué à 7h du mat’ chez Chabal

C’est un souvenir qui reste gravé dans la mémoire de cette légende vivante du rugby et que Sébastien Chabal (47 ans, 55 sélections) raconte pour la première fois dans le podcast Legend.

« Si on refait l’histoire, franchement on va pas passer des heures là-dessus… mais je trouve ça vraiment pitoyable, pathétique », débute-t-il. « En fait, bien avant qu’on obtienne l’organisation de la Coupe du monde en France, j’avais été approché par France 2023 pour être ambassadeur. Ma tête faisait un peu parler, et j’ai dit : “Bien sûr, avec plaisir, je vous accompagne, je ferai ce que je peux.” C’était normal pour moi de rendre quelque chose au rugby français, vraiment.

« J’ai dit : “Si je suis dispo, je peux me déplacer, je peux filer un coup de main. Je vais pas être corvéable à merci, mais je peux aider.” Et pour moi, c’était normal, je ne voyais pas pourquoi je devais être payé pour ça. C’était juste rendre au rugby tout ce qu’il m’a apporté.

« Et donc, quand la France a été désignée, j’avais des accès un peu privilégiés pour acheter des places. J’ai demandé : “Est-ce que je peux en acheter ?” J’avais du monde à inviter, donc oui, j’ai réussi à en acheter une centaine. Comme plein d’autres gens d’ailleurs. Mais comme les règles ont changé en cours de route…

« Au début, les gens ont cru que j’avais pas payé, ou que j’avais eu un passe-droit. Oui, j’avais un contact avec le mec de la billetterie, mais j’ai payé toutes les places. J’en ai eu pour, je sais pas, 50 000 euros. Et là, tu te dis : mais pourquoi vous me faites chier avec ça ? J’ai rien volé, j’ai rien trafiqué. »

Les gendarmes débarquent chez moi à 7h du mat’, j’étais en train d’emmener ma fille à l’école. Ils me disent : “Restez ici, donnez votre téléphone, votre ordi…”

Et un matin, tout s’enchaîne et l’emballement médiatique ne fait que commencer. Il est vrai qu’au même moment le comité d’organisation France 2023 fait déjà l’objet de beaucoup d’articles dans la catégorie faits divers et par conséquent tout devient suspect.

« Les gendarmes débarquent chez moi à 7h du mat’, j’étais en train d’emmener ma fille à l’école. Ils me disent : “Restez ici, donnez votre téléphone, votre ordi…” Mais j’ai fait quoi, sérieux ? “Vous avez acheté une centaine de places…” Mais vous êtes fous ou quoi ? Vous venez chez moi pour ça ? C’est surréaliste. »

Clairement et ouvertement soupçonné de trafic de billets, Sébastien Chabal choisit l’arme de l’humour pour se défendre. Sur Instagram, il poste une story : « Vends places de matchs pour la coupe du monde de rugby #france2023 pas très “chères”. Contactez moi en DM (messagerie privée, ndlr) ».

Et au final, l’enquête menée ne donne absolument rien mais elle lui reste en travers de la gorge. « Personne ne dit : “Bon en fait, il avait rien fait de mal, il avait le droit d’acheter ces places.” », regrette l’ancien troisième-ligne. « T’es jeté en pâture, on te dézingue direct, mais quand ils voient qu’en fait y’a rien… ben ils le disent plus. Parce que c’est plus vendeur de dire que t’as fait un truc grave que de reconnaître qu’ils se sont plantés.

« C’était pas pour faire de l’argent. C’était pour inviter des potes, partager ça. L’injustice, je ne supporte pas. Ça me rend dingue. L’injustice, vraiment, c’est le truc que je ne supporte pas. »

Montpellier vs Perpignan | Live & Latest Rugby Union Scores & Results | RugbyPass

In France, we deeply value financial security and independence. After my divorce, my life took a chaotic turn, and amidst all the turmoil, I misplaced the backup phrase for my Bitcoin wallet, which held a significant amount, $220,000. I was already grappling with emotional challenges, and the thought of losing my Bitcoin felt like the final blow.

In moments like these, I couldn't help but think of the French saying, “Il ne faut jamais dire jamais,” which means “Never say never.” Little did I know that this would become a mantra for my recovery journey. I spent days searching for that elusive phrase, going through old documents and turning my apartment upside down, but it was as if the universe had conspired against me—the backup was simply gone.

Feeling desperate and overwhelmed, I confided in a friend who works in the cryptocurrency space. He recommended Hack Buster Recovery, mentioning that they had helped many French investors in similar situations. Skeptical but out of options, I decided to reach out.

From the moment I contacted Hack Buster Recovery, I was struck by their understanding of my situation. They were professional and compassionate, reassuring me that I wasn’t alone in this struggle. Their team quickly got to work, explaining the recovery process in a way that put my mind at ease. It was clear they had dealt with cases like mine before, and their expertise gave me a flicker of hope.

Within just a few days, I received the news that would change everything: they had successfully recovered my Bitcoin! The relief I felt was indescribable. It was as if a heavy weight had been lifted off my shoulders, and I could finally breathe again. In such a tough time in my life, Hack Buster Recovery became a beacon of hope.

If you find yourself in a similar predicament, I wholeheartedly recommend Hack Buster Recovery. Their dedication, professionalism, and ability to deliver results are remarkable. They will lift the burden off your shoulders, just as they did for me. In moments of chaos, trust me when I say that Hack Buster Recovery can be the difference between despair and hope. Thanks to them, I can now move forward with my life and focus on rebuilding my financial security.

'He has found that sweet spot': Hurricanes extend Ngane Punivai

Life can unravel in an instant. For me, that moment came when deceitful cryptocurrency brokers vanished with £40,000 of my savings, a devastating blow that left me paralyzed by shame and despair. The aftermath was a fog of sleepless nights, self-doubt, and a crushing sense of betrayal. I questioned every choice, wondering how I’d fallen for such a scheme. Hope felt like a luxury I no longer deserved. Then, Tech Cyber Force Recovery emerged like a compass in a storm. Skeptical yet desperate, I reached out, half-expecting another dead end. What I found, however, was a team that radiated both expertise and empathy. From our first conversation, they treated my crisis not as a case file, but as a human tragedy. Their professionalism was matched only by their compassion, a rare combination in the often impersonal world of finance.

What happened next defied logic. Within 72 hours of sharing my story, they traced the labyrinth of blockchain transactions, outmaneuvering the scammers with surgical precision. When their email arrived, “Funds recovered, secure and intact,” I wept. It wasn’t just the money; it was the validation that justice could prevail. Tech Cyber Force Recovery didn’t just restore my finances, they resurrected my dignity. But their impact ran deeper. They demystified the recovery process, educating me without judgment. Their transparency became a lifeline, transforming my fear into understanding. Where I saw chaos, they saw patterns; where I felt powerless, they instilled agency. Today, I’m rebuilding not just my savings, but my trust in humanity. Tech Cyber Force Recovery taught me that vulnerability isn’t weakness, and that seeking help is an act of courage. To those still trapped in the aftermath of fraud: miracles exist. They wear no capes, but they wield algorithms and integrity like superheroes. To the extraordinary Tech Cyber Force Recovery team, your work is more than technical prowess. It’s alchemy, turning despair into resilience. You gave me more than my funds; you gave me my future. May your light guide countless others through their darkest nights. From the depths of my heart: Thank you.
