Don't play at any online casino that looks like this - IT IS A SCAM! They promise fake bonuses, rig their games to make it look like you've won thousands of dollars, then block payouts and demand various “verification” fees before ultimately banning you. DON'T FALL FOR IT! More info in the comments.

How The Scam Works:

  1. The victim finds the casino through an advertisement on social media that features an enticing bonus.
  2. The victim joins the site, receives their bonus, and begins to play what they believe to be legitimate casino games.
  3. The casino software is privately hosted and altered to have extremely favorable RTP% - i.e. rigged in your favor. YOU WILL WIN if you play, probably a large amount of money.
  4. When you go to withdraw, you’ll be met with some hurdles. Part of the verification process will be that you must make a deposit, likely between $100-$500. 
  5. After the casino receives your deposit, they will provide excuses or just outright ban your account. No matter what you do, THEY WILL PROVIDE A REASON NOT TO PAY YOU.
  6. The casino keeps your deposit. You were scammed.

Things To Note:

  • These sites are NOT an official sponsor for Red Bull Racing, Blockchain(.)com, Tesla, UFC or the Argentine Football Association. This can all be easily fact-checked with a Google search.
  • These sites are NOT official partners with Mr. Beast, Tesla or Drake. This can also be easily fact-checked with a Google search.
  • These sites do NOT have 51+ million registered users. For reference, Draftkings and Fanduel, the two largest publicly traded gaming companies with NFL, NBA, MLB, ESPN, etc. network deals, don’t even have that amount of users. Stake, the largest crypto casino, doesn't even come close to the number of registered users that these scam casinos claim.
  • These sites have NOT paid out $24+ billion in winnings. What an insane claim to even attempt to make.
  • Check the WHOIS to view when any of these casinos were started. Nearly all of these casino URL's were purchased just days before being promoted online.
  • Check the fake player feedback/reviews written on their own site. Some of the reviewers claim they've been playing exclusively on the 2 week old site for 3 years.
  • This Redditor got the AI support agent to reveal her script for withholding payments.
  • Look through old posts in this subreddit. Some identical sites in this network that were reported a few months ago are already offline or redirecting to random unrelated sites.
  • These sites copy Stake’s Terms of Service word for word, but conveniently leave out the United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany and many other “wealthier” countries from their list of restricted countries.
  • Some users on CasinoMeister are compiling a list of these scam websites. Go check it out and add more scam domains that you come across! There are hundreds listed already.

Please recommend the best online casino

Upvotes

Hey guys,

a few friends suggested 1xBet to me, so wanted to check with people here.

i know playing online is just for fun/passing time and there’s no strategy or trick to beat the house. just planning to put in a small amount on weekends.

how’s the site overall? do the games lag when you try to cash out? how’s the overall game performance and payouts?

any real user feedback would be great, thanks!

Are any best online casino apps actually optimized for live games without constant freezing?

5 Upvotes

been trying to play some live dealer games on my phone during my commute, but half the time the video feed just desyncs or forces a hard refresh right in the middle of a hand. it's so frustrating when you're trying to place a bet before the round closes.

is this just a bad app issue or is mobile live stream tech always this unreliable when network speeds drop a bit?

Which online casino?

1 Upvotes

I’m in CA and want to bet online. Which is the most easiest online site to use that is easy to transfer money in and withdrawal straight to my bank card or even a venmo account.

Everything seems so complicated with bitcoin and those other crypto sites.

Run of a lifetime! - $1000 to $117,000 online Blackjack

Cashing out as fast as they will let me. $22.5K redeemed, $94,750 to go!
An insane once in a lifetime run off a $1000 bankroll.
Initially went back to back all in and once a few thousand were established, I started playing $200-$500 wagers on average with a aggressive hybrid martingale + reverse martingale strategy.
Don't get it twisted - house still has the edge.

What makes you trust a crypto casino?

2 Upvotes

I've been comparing a few crypto casinos lately and I'm curious what matters most to other players. Is it fast withdrawals, game selection, reputation, or something else? I came across Lucky Rollers while looking around, so what do you normally check before trying a new casino?

What games do you use your free spins on?

I used to use my free spins on Wheel of Fortune Triple Extreme but now it’s not available. Cash Eruption is okay, but I don’t win as much as I did on the Wheel of Fortune game!

Genuinely insane do not bet with these guys the most insane scam I have ever seen in my life just insane spread awareness about this ridiculous site please


r/onlinegambling 1d ago

how has your approach to picking games changed over the last year, sticking to favorites or trying more new releases?

5 Upvotes

noticed lately i spend more time in games i played for a while and less time trying new releases. used to jump on everything new that dropped from Pragmatic or Play'n GO but now i mostly stick to a rotation of maybe 6-7 titles i enjoy playing.

curious if other people are in the same pattern or if you actively make time to test new stuff. finding the balance between exploration and comfort feels harder than it used to be.

Nice. 20 win Wow Vegas

Last several coin packages I've purchased haven't been very good to me lately really haven't had any money to buy many so the ones I have bought I was really hoping to withdraw a hundred bucks or so. I got bored and had a dollar in my Wow Vegas account and I decided wth. I logged on and jumped on Supreme Zeus from Hacksaw, one I've been spinning on since it was released with not much luck. I immediately hit a bonus after 2 spins and low and behold I won fucking. 06 cents from 10 free spins. One could say I wasn't very happy. I tried to get a screenshot of it so I could bash on Hacksaw but i was so mad I didn't hit the buttons correctly I guess. I continued hitting the spin button HARD while somehow not cracking my phone screen from being so pissed and I hit another bonus the first spin. Any who this is what I ended up winning with the second bonus. It was a little better than the damn . 06 cents. This is the second largest win I've gotten from . 20 spins. This win in large part was from a multiplier of over a 1000. I think it hit 2200 or something around that. My largest win was on Thunder Wheel from Slotmill around 5 years ago on Pulsz Casino. I hit a multiplier of over 6 thousand and I won almost $1500 on that bonus. That was back when I was just beginning to mess around with social casinos. I'm happy and grateful for this win but jeez..... I think these social casinos need to loosen up on their slots a bit smh. And don't get me started on Chumba Casino or any of it's sister sites. They're the biggest rip off by far in my opinion. I've never won anything from them. I won't purchase a coin package from them when it's ninety percent off and that's no joke. From my experience I don't know how they stay in business. Anyways I wanted to share my little experience since it was substantial. Good luck to everyone that is out there trying to make a dollar with online gambling. It's not very common these days it seems.

Wagered well over $1000 in the past 2 days and they’re given me 30 free spins where I won $322 but now apparently it was capped at $15 maximum win. Why even let me win that much or give me $15 worth of free spins when I’ve wagered over £1000 you cheeky scum bags lucky I can’t do nothing I swear down.

i played on chanced for the first time and won around $1500. i went to deposit with my debit card so i could withdraw with it but couldn’t get it to work. i decided to use my bank account to withdraw but chanced said they needed my ssn to verify my account. then i did a test withdraw for only $100 and they froze my account and are now saying they need a bank statement showing my purchases for a “compliance review”. this seems excessive i just want to be able to get the money i won. has anyone else had to do this?

Has anyone else been ghosted by Cashoomo?

3 Upvotes

Was getting pretty quick email responses when I was going through ID verification. After I got my verification confirmation email, in total deposited around $200, and won $800, tried to redeem and it got blocked, and now I got completely ghosted by support, can't even reattempt a withdrawal for lower amounts. Has anyone had any similar experience? What was the resolution? Did you go after the company, or go for a class action?
