Thank you for the link. I have posted in their main thread, which seems to have a ton and a half of these complaints. Perhaps an action class lawsuit is appropriate, I will update this thread with any progress.

Class suite? Are you mad? If they are from Europe as example and you open a law suite in usa and you'll be fined not them.

Look better in the future where you are going to gamble

This screenshot is not on the op post now i just read it.

well, as matter of fact, users usually tend to forget these kind of small details such as using a VPN.

regarding not paying, yeah it's illegal for them to block your account for 2 years because they don't feel like paying you. Playing with the letter of the law is never helpful for a simple person.

btw i endorse with this user, i am not against him

citenzship has nothing to do with location.

he should know the american law that he is not allowed to gamble on not authorised websites by the gambling commision ( something like that should be the name)

Are you not listening? He is in France and cloudbet knew that.

I don't think this guy fully understands the situation. Let it go. Let's hear from this Ronnie fellow from CloudBet.

Meanwhile, I've registered cloudbetscam.com and will pursue to build it unless our situations are sorted out. If you want to collaborate on this, DM me.

I see he was on vacation, I missed that part, oh if he was in France and they have operating licence is bad to them. Really bad, just a run to the police and make a complaint and can be closed (at least in France) in 5 days.

Anyhow good luck.

Now I have the full view.

Anyhow it's fucked up as idea...

I mean if i lose on your casino will you give me money back because I played illegal? ... lol

Or I stop now giving you any money you have in your balance because you won too much and I don't feel like I want to give to you more

The thing is his friend traveling with him lost almost a bitcoin recently and they didn’t ask for KYC. If KYC is that important they should require it to make your first deposit:)

If that’s the case his friends bets should be voided also since they claim they won’t take the bets.

They sure would take his funds if he had lost a big amount. Very good move from OP to provide them his Russian documents after they declined his withdrawal with some weak excuse.

Now cloudbet has no other choice than releasing the player funds. Or will they come up with another excuse?


@OP: Good luck. 1.7 BTC is an amount to fight for. Don't give in if they try to come up with some crappy deal like refunding your start balance or whatever.

Thanks for the support. I'm not intending to let them get away with it. This is a pure scam if I have ever seen one.

Get a kick out of this:
After i sent their "support" department this:
"I urge you to reconsider and release my funds, or this will only be the beginning: https://cloudbetscam.com/
I will give you 24 hours to reply and solve this nonsense before passing the keys to my developers and marketing team to make the website VERY live."

They respond with:
"Dear americandream,

We will be contacting the police and providing them with your details if there are any attempts to maliciously harm the website.

Please consider this our final communication.

Best regards,

Paul

Cloudbet Support Manager"

I assume they intend on using my personal information that I provided them with and they insured that they would keep confidential for this.

Cloudbet, I would LOVE to talk to the police so I could find out who filed the report so I can counter sue them.
You best believe the website is going live and will be ranked for every keyword that you target. That's what I do for a living.

I'll keep the thread updated with progress and will deter as much business from you as possible. Anybody who wants to join the fight, DM me.

Unless they, Cloudbet, return deposits from lost wagers to players from restricted countries, they are free rolling these players and should be called out.

Young American Games site is crap. It’s nothing but him promoting affiliates. Stay away.
I do not want to disturb incompetent clowns, but here is what SBR has to say:

Quote
Game Protect are the experts in this area.

If they say you will need to obtain proper legal help, then you should follow their advice.

SBR is a USA-centric service and these sort of claims for your money back if you can get back in to a book, when you would also be here demanding winnings if they tried to deny paying you based on your account closure request, are not compatible with SBR's view of fair industry practice.

Game Protect or some other UK-centric ODR service more in tune with this idea is your best bet.

@ youngamericandream

I think it is more effective to put your energy and effort holding Fraudbet liable towards the already existing article https://game-protect.com/cloudbet-scam/ that uses the key words "cloudbet scam". I will add your text to this article.

However, if you wish to create your website cloudbetscam.com, can you please forward victims to https://game-protect/com/support-ticket/ ?

Because we enforce Cloudbet claims effectively.

Added and I will look at your website and procedures more closely when I'm back from my vacation.

Thank You

More or less, but I solved mine by talking and not making threats. Just showing a legal complaint solved it.

Tho, with bitcasino.io i still have 3.8 btc for a couple of years but i used an email just for receiving not for sending so they decided it's against their tos. I tried everything when btc was booming but i will let it go for now.

I see. These people have threatened me with police, so I'd say "legal" complaint is out the window with these scumbags. They're definitely hurting, for one reason or another.

And if they threatened you what they can do? Huh? Do you think you can be arrested over night? Do you think curacao police will take a flight just to ask your opinion on the matter?

lol, be chill, play your game. Better, find out everything you can about them before they might dissapear.

Appreciate the advice, but do I look at all worried? I will continue documenting everything. Currently working with 2 publications to get press releases out as well. I don't really care about the 1.7 btc. Its the principle that bothers me.

In your place I would work to find out what they eat, where they live and so on. This is irellevant, press articles won't help. Better buy 2-3 domains and hire some good seo in google to have the first results on google when you search cloudbet: scam scam scam.

Sorry if I am irellevant, 6 am here. Also living in Europe. Tty tomorrow, waiting for good news

The publicly proven Bitcasino scam (https://game-protect.com/bitcasino-scam/) is an illegal and criminal operation with anonymous accounts!

Do you think they have the right to embezzle your 3.8 BTC because you used an email just for receiving? :D

Ronnie,

Per Lilly residency was never a determining factor. Andy acknowledged Lilly made a mistake on telegram. If it was a mistake cloudbet is fully responsible for her supposed mistake. Lilly told the player he could bet and be paid and then proceeded to book the bet. Once cloudbet booked the bet they became fully responsible for paying the player his winnings. The bet was not voided until the match was over and it was determined it was a win.

Don’t treat me like a idiot Ronnie. There is no way in HELL cloudbet would have returned the players bitcoin if the last bet lost. I’m not that stupid.

As they say on ESPN

“C’MON MAN”







  

He just said if I can prove residency, he'll take care of the situation quickly. Let's see if he can deliver on his promises, I have my Russian documents ready to send for verification. I doubt it tho.


Title: Re: Cloudbet SCAM
Post by: youngamericandream on February 09, 2019, 05:33:04 PM
Hello all,

Unfortunately I seem to be yet another target of the cloudbet scam.
Here is what happened:



Avoid cloud bet at all cost. They owe me 35 bitcoins (from the time when bitcoin was trading at $13500/coin).  I am a high-roller who follows Betting resource.com's 10 unit picks. They recommend only to play at betcris and pinnacle but the limits there are low and decided to jump in on cloudbet since they offered the 5 bitcoin bonus plus high limits. I deposited 20 bitcoins and I received 5 bonus bitcoins. All was good. Limits were ridiculously high and and I was very happy following the tips. Long story short, I ran up my account to 60 units total in few months and problems arose when I requested the first withdrawal for 25 units. It staid pending for days without explanation. When i contacted them, they kept giving excuse of internal reviews and investigations. Then they asked so many documents, some were ridiculous requests and i complied with everything they asked. By this point i was suspicious and stopped betting with them. Their review/investigation last 2 months and finally they completed the investigation and concluded that my "betting pattern" is against their terms and conditions. I asked them which and they failed to explain further. They told me that my account has been closed and gave me option to withdraw my 20 bitcoin deposited and gave my 48 hour ultimatum and if I don't accept the offer, I get nothing. I had no choice but to accept the offer. At the time i deposited the 20 bitcoins, it was trading around 13.5k/coin. When i received the 20 bitcoins, bitcoin was worth about $8000. Not only did I lose my winnings and bonus but I also lost a lot of value on my deposit.

To date they haven't given me explanation on how I broke the terms and conditions. i did not have any betting pattern. all i did was follow my tipster and flat bet 4 bit coins on each tip. All bets for same amount. There is nothing in their terms and conditions that states this type of betting is disallowed.

This book is very bad. I guess many people don't know since they are losing gamblers but if you are a big winner, they will show their real colors.

Sorry to hear that. Do you have a thread on here with your experience? I'll add it to the list.

Thanks for warning other people and thanks for sharing the truth about the incident that you had with CloudBet.
We mentioned before they contacted us (through our offerwall) asking to promote their site, and we refused to do so because of all the complaints users hold against them.
