Bitcoin Forum

Hello guys.

What happened::

Always there is bad reputation about Russians betting site. The situation on internet is the same.
I was gambling for two years and using 1xbet platform for gambling. I've never had profit earlier but after month of practicing I learned how to take some profit. My mainly focus was on Roulette game. Every things was going good and I earning $5 each day but one day I woke up and saw my account balance ($260) was disappeared and just $6 has remained. I was not shocking so much because I was experienced this situation on a small betting site and support was saying you have lost all your money on a game.

Website Link: http://www.1xbet.com
Amount Scammed: $260

PM/Chat Logs:
Me: Hi support team, Unfortunately My account balance has disappeared. What happened?
Support: Dear user, You have spent funds playing slots.

Me: How is it possible to play slot when I'm asleep?
Me: Unfortunately it's not your first time. Support team play and loose money of customers. Easy way to take money from players.
Support: Dear user,
Please specify your last action on your gaming account. 
Support: Dear user, Please specify if anyone else has access to your account.
Me: No one accessed my account. I have security question for my account.

Support: Dear Customer, Please specify the bet slip number that you mean.
Me: The last bet slip number before account balance disappeared was: 8121976569
Support: Dear Customer,
According to our system, you played Slots before and after placing this bet.
Me: Why I can not see details about games I'm played, except bets. Which IP has played that?

Support: Dear Customer, Please specify the game that you have played.
Me: Yesterday I just played roulette and bet $10 on single bet. How much of money has cashed in to slot game?
Me: Actually you said I have played slot twice. One time before betting $10, and one time after it. Really suspicious. If you wanna just take my all money that I earned in 4 month, why you telling an unbelievable story? Send me IPs.

Suspicious:
1. The bad thing is most of betting site you can not see your all history. In 1xbet(a Russian scam) you can just see your bets on sports and etc. If you playing Casinos you don't have any documents for prove your claim.
2. Unfortunately the support say which game you have played earlier? It means they do not store all activity of users? Oh.
3. I asked for IPs that logged in. But he didn't respond me.

Conclusions:
1. Unfortunately, betting site have come to earn money from loser players and they not play fair. We need a site that review the betting site and make betting more fair.
2. In Forex all activity store in log file. login time, Balance, traded position, date and time. We need something like that in betting sites.
3. Stay away from Russian betting sites.

Wow a whopping $5/ day and a astronomical balance of $260 just totally wiped away from you.

first of all this is a bitcoin forum and 1xbet isn't a bitcoin site so the whole thread isn't related to these forums
and I guess everyone knows that 1xbet is a scam but I never seen any complaint against when the player is using their casino , they usually scam the people who bet on their sports and beat their starting prices

your whole balance is small and they won't bother scamming that amount especially that you are playing roulette , there is noway to beat roulette and they should be happy to take all bets

with sportsbetting that's a different story of course

I never heard this site so I may not judge them as of now. With a $5 per day that you have won, and it becomes $260 so, overall that 52 days you've consecutively won without lose. That is amazing. Here is my conclusion, maybe they suspected your account abusing their system. By the way, your lack of proof here, you must show something screenshots and once proofs are completed you can remove this thread into this section  Scam Accusations (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0). Sorry for your loss and thank you for sharing this scenario.

Edit: Damn, there are a lot of complaint regarding them. Stay away from that gambling site.

there's a lot more just search on this thread,  Scam Accusations (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0) and use search engine box.

The problem is here that I can just see my betting history. There is no such Casino's History. And how can I prove this? I asked 1xbet for details on money cashed in slot game, but they didn't respond.

Sorry to hear that, if you don't find any solid proof there's nothing you can do just move on. Besides, you are not the one who scammed them, there are a lot more even though in searching on google there are more unresolved scam accusations against this gambling site.
This serves you a lesson that you must to learn, do research first before using any gambling platform. You don't have a loss here because that's all you've got from winning to their site so nothing to worry, you've effort has been wasting but no fund from you are being stolen.

Maybe because there is connection between 1xbet and 1xbit, he decided to post there.
1xbet/1xbit is proven scam, there is no doubt. OP there are websites which review casinos but wheb you play on bitcoin casino, to be 100% sure, it's always better to check whether there are scam accusation threads of that casino or not, if there is, what was reason and how it was solved, if there is no scam accusation thread and ANN thread (both together in most cases), I wouldn't risk gambling on that casino too.

That site has been known to be a scam site for so long already. Yet, players are still going to that site. A player should at least check the background of the gambling site before sending any amount to them. Because if you do send money, then that is your responsibility to take care of. Just by entering 1xbet scam in google search and you have a lot of articles to read and assess for yourself.

I bet several times in 1xBet and I have never had the slightest problem. Even in deposit and withdrawal transactions, the exchange rate was very small. I've always been satisfied.
I am sure there is a misunderstanding here.

Yeah there are many missunderstanding here about 1xbet:

Google is still your best friends to check gambling sites. Still wondering why people keep playing on those sites. The same with people who keep playing at sites which are known not to be random as they say like 999dice.

Do you know how much is the USD/Rial rate? Each dollar worth 120,000 Rials in Iran. Maybe not a money for rich guys like you. But I worked two months(12 hours/day without weekend vacation) for this money.

Unfortunately, It's hard to find good sites. A betting site has 5 years without scam, then they start to scam people randomly. Do you know  good betting site?

I haven't heard of this problem before,but have you tried writing an email to them to atleast give you the break down of how the money was gambled? Maybe IP address used to access the app could be included to give you a satisfactory answer..

And before you proceed, how many people have access to your devices??? You might want to ask these people first, good luck.

Just keep away from anything made form China or Russia there are no laws there except the "law" their rulers have created to protect themselves and their government.

Those are scam heaven counties!

PS: I'm not saying there are no laws at all there, but they mostly ignore whatever is doing harm to people OUTSIDE the country (like scams).

Before entering in any gambling site make sure you research its background just use google to help you to decide if this gambling site is legit or not. I always see this site promotion on new movies cam that I downloaded on internet but I never try to visit or register on this site.

I wish I was rich  ::)    but my point is you are calling them a russian scam over ($260)


So this has happened before (where the casino gambled your money while you were sleeping) but you continue to play here  ???
Maybe time to find another casino that doesnt allow its support team to gamble your money while you are sleeping

Russia still has laws against anyone who acts in a state scam. It is different from China which is a communist country where all rules are made by authorities and to protect it, as you say. Communist ideology has died in Russia, therefore China and Russia differ about law.

The number of scams in Russia is also not because there is no law, but in Russia there are too many crypto company developers and crypto players. Even Russia is not included in highest fraud country in world, but China is ranked third.

If I see from your conversation with the 1xbet team, it was not cheated from the 1xbet gambling site,

You yourself every game runs out of funds, I think this gambling site is not suitable for you, always losing never wins.

My advice, try to switch to another gambling site: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=56.0
maybe, your destiny may change.

I have read a lot of similar stories that people post about and it definitely looks like a scam. With the posts from mamali1387, it definitely has been running scams throughout those times. I'm not sure why people deposit large sums of money in those unrecognized sites but it's definitely something to watch out for because it's not easy to earn. As for you, OP, we all know that it's not that big of balance but don't let others discourage you with that. As long as you report the scams that are happening, it doesn't matter whether you have a small account or not.

P.S. The way they reply looks like a scam.


All saying, Dear Customer. Do you have a deep affection towards them? Lol

I have bet on this site, and the whole process has been successful, without problems of any kind, you have to be cautious when placing your bets, no site has the power to play or bet on you while you are idle, maybe you left your Open session and someone came in and played that joke, or maybe you made a bet and you don't remember, you say they played while you were sleeping, many things can happen if you leave the platform open.

Does Gambling sites determine our luck? As gambling is purely game of luck. Gambling is a way of investing for profits and to me it has nothing to alter the destiny of a man.
Op before you accuse any gambling sites it is good you do your research very well before bringing your accusations in public places like this.

Depends on how you play, if you have expertise in playing one of the online, gambling sites that you are definitely lucky, the fate depends on the human being, you know what I mean, right.

I agree, look for accurate information before accusing.
To be proven in public places.

Reading the conversation will not convince us to be on your side. I 1xbet is a known site for me because it appear in a movies I downloaded. Never tried playing there but can't judge the site. There will instance that user try to fool sites by claiming something that they lost in games by making a scenario that they can't prove. But I hope you can prove it by giving more evidence.

Did you do any research at all op?. It seems that you are a victim of 1xbet and there is also another scam and it's related to 1xbet which is 1xbit. There is a scam accusation of 1xbet and 1xbit in this forum. Just think positive even though your money has been scammed or taken.

I have known 1xbet.com for many years, although I haven't used them, but I used to admire the platform a lot. I never knew they are fraudulent.

The responses I am seeing from this post doesn't portray a cautious customer support that is proactive to customer's needs. Seems too generic to me.

Oldest sportsbook scam online in my opinion, and yet it's got a really really strong reputation.

They have a very big network of PTC ads and banners on almost every website with dubious stuff (like free streams and faucets etc) and they actually pay out on that, that's the problem. So they always get new players coming.

Ha-ha didn't expect to meet 1xbet here. I live in Russia and can't name a single good gambling place with a good reputation. In Russia it is very hard to earn money in the gambling business. Our laws make this kind of entertainment illegal. Our people who want to really play fair are forced to choose larger foreign venues with a good reputation. 

It took me just to google this website to find out that it has a terrible reputation. One of the first reputation-related links leads to the following website where 1xbet has terrible reviews: https://www.trustpilot.com/review/1xbet.com. Most people say that there are problems with withdrawal, and there are many scam accusations. Moreover, when I tried to open the website, it said in Russian that the access is closed, and there's only a non-free option... Sorry, but all you can do is open a scam accusation on Bitcointalk to warn others, but I would not expect to get the money back.

I doubt if OP did a little research about the site since he knew this forum a little research of a reputable gambling site would be necessary but 1xbet is not a cryptocurrency gambling site. 1xbit is the cryptocurrency gambling site but it has also a scam accusation on it that hasn't been fixed yet. I really doubt if they would fix it with their team.

Well, upon reading the replies above, I just found out that this gambling site has massive customer complaints and scam accusations so, I did not risk my fund on this kind of shady behavior gambling website. I did not convince to believe if I only found 1 or 2 scam accusation against them but there are more than 20's count I guess. Indeed, we still thankful to OP either he telling the truth or not but it brings us a heads up here towards that scammy gambling website.

I never knew that this was a Russian site but still beating roulette, I can't just believe that for now. I have never played on the site but I see it in advertisements on videos etc, so I thought at the first place it was good site but then a gambling site that has no logs is very fishy so why the hell did n't doubt it in the first place, you could've avoid being scammed.

If I am not wrong then 1xbet has bitcoins as one of their payment option. I can not recall much but I think I knew a guy who told me once that he deposits bitcoins in 1xbet.

By the way, it seems the OP seems very much a scam accusations topic, isn't it?

1xbet conducts a very aggressive marketing campaign and such stategy always stopped me from trying to use this site. 1xbet as a betting site is very popular in Russia, huge amounts of money are spent on advertising. If you ask a Russian if he knows any well-known betting site, he will name this one.  I am absolutely sure of this, because I know the Russian mentality and how many scams there are.  I would advise avoiding using it because there are many more reliable alternatives.

of course the ideas and approaches of the rip-offs will be better/adapted but on the whole only helps to be extremely careful. in case of doubt also miss out on a chance than to get on the glue with anyone. unfortunately scam pages are created faster than you can react to it :-\

Well, it seems like that and it is right. But probably it needs more evidence and moves into scam accusation. Unhealthy claim if it is lack of proof. However, there are a lot of scam accusations towards this gambling site but unfortunately, all of them are lack of evidence.
People should stay away on this and a red flag should be raise towards them.

I understand it being a scam, but why drag russia into this? :P

The post starter is in Russia maybe and presumed it's a Russian ran betting site. The point here is not about nationality and it will not change to that, it's about how 250$ was lost from the 1xbet account

You cant stop people not to dragged a certain nationality yet we know the standing of Russian country when it comes to scams and those kind of impressions cant really be removed easily on someones mind.

As far as i know that 1xbet do accept btc.This site is big and heavily invested on marketing stuff thats why its hard to believe about the issue of $250 lost. lol

Not that it changes anything but according to a quick search that betting site is owned by a company based in Cyprus.
It has been rated 1.6/5 by https://www.lottoexposed.com/1xbet-exposed/

Seems like many people have had different issues with them and you OP are unfortunately one of those unlucky ones.

I've tried to visit their site and you can see a lot of business partner which we could think that they will scam. But when I tried to view their feedbacks it appears like this https://1xbet.com/en/review. It means that they are turning off their reviews, and it sounds like they hide something for the community.
Giving in to the doubts and what people arguments and complaints with them it simply means that is true.

I can understand what is your situation. What I'm trying to tell you is that, unfortunately, some people who don't know anything are betting. This makes it difficult to convince them that there is no problem. Unconscious bets can sometimes have bad results. This has nothing to do with the platform. I am not connected to the 1xBet platform. But I'm trying to tell you that I've bet before and I'm not having any problems.

They have done a good job of building up relationships with Premier League teams... a pretty good tell on crypto or betting scams is massive marketing effort backed up by poor product. Anyway... Tottenham have already jumped ship, and looks like others are on the way:
https://talksport.com/football/595719/tottenham-chelsea-liverpool-1xbet-gambling-commission/

They closed access to reviews because there was nothing but negative reviews. In general, this is a logical step on their part to prevent massive outflow of customers. For those people who know how to use Google, this is not a problem. Such a marketing strategy with hiding important information will only scare away experienced people who have been using similar betting/gambling for a long time.

Is 1xbet having that bad reputation? As far as I know they always paying their customer and never have any issues. And if there is some issues, they will always get a solution in the end. If I not mistaken, 1xbet is being promoted towards soccer game on the field, like you can sre their banner out there, almost like sbobet so it is somehow big company, so I do not think they are scamming anyone

We don't want to be critical, but that seems a naive line of reasoning. Perhaps the issue is around use of the word "scam"... it can mean different things to different people.

Thanks for the warning, I didn't know they were a bad casino

That doesn't really mean anything.

These guys have been promoting their website over torrent files too. If you haven't seen them on the soccer field but saw them in the middle of the TV show you were watching, your opinion would be %100 different.

Their advertising methods are indeed too aggressive. They act like they have to make big money in a very limited time. Can't get something good out of this combination.

Agreed. It feels like at some point customers are going to be left desperately trying to withdraw funds and getting an error. We truly hope not, but hard to believe that it won't end in tears.

Sorry OP, but you might not get your money back  :-[

All this might explain why some guy (member of this forum) hired me some time ago to do translations for him (didnt know it was this company at first) and then suddenly - like 3 weeks ago - they stopped sending me new "jobs"...  ;D ::)

Indeed, they are everywhere. I have been watching movies downloaded via torrent files and suddenly they will pop out not only once in the movie. Several times they are appearing their ads and you can see them especially in new released movies. However, a user should at least tap our google friend to check at least the overview of this site. A lot of warning signals are already in the net, so why bother using their site?

You are just talking to a bot. I also suspect this 1xbet gambling site since they pop-up on sites as ads on torrent. They way your conversation with the system goes, it seems that they are not serious on helping you out with your lost funds.

Well that escalated quickly.

With the cancelling of partnerships by not just one but different reputable stakeholders, then it definitely means there is someone so off about 1xBET and no one should ever use them at all costs.

If someone has money in there, they should try their luck and withdraw it ASAP.

And this goes to the list of scam accusations against a particular site and unfortunately, there is nothing that can be done other than its time to move on. What you can do is the feedback which is to notify others of the unwholesome activities of this particular site. When a site begins to do selective wiping out of accounts and not ready to own up to their responsibilities, it point to just one direction which is that they are having issues with their liquidity and they feel when some balances are not being touched in a while, probably the owner does not need it or no longer active forgetting that their excuse of unauthorized access is an indictment on their own platform.

Why not a screenshot of the chat you had with their support guy and why you came with the words only? Anybody can blame some reputed website like this to gain a rebate thinking they will lose their reputation. Were all your bets too swiped away from your transactions database? You can't see your bets too? What was your starting capital with which you made $5 each day?

Thank goodness. These idiots are finally being cut loose. I am honestly stunned to see this site on top of the rankings in many sportsbook review websites and their alexa ranking is pretty damn good too.

This goes to show how popular it has become over time despite all their blatant wrong-doings. The only way that they can recover from this is if they change their entire team(By choosing an honest one).

Well, the EPL teams are obliged to drop them once UKGC put them on a blacklist, but there are plenty of other markets where it will be "business as usual" for the operator.

Interesting that they are so highly ranked on Alexa... with a small amount of money and a lot of will power, 99% of recommend systems are just too easy to be gamed.

Even Google's PR game has become worst since websites like these have become able to get themselves adjusted at number 1 or on the first page of Google's search engine. 1xbet had a lot of advertisements here and there and they got too much exposure due to word of mouth advertising where mostly, with the use of some moneymaking forums, people shared their name and got them free customers.

Based on my experience, most Russian gambling sites are shady af. I understand what OP went thru since these operators hardly have repercussions for scamming their punters.

I used to frequent one and advertised it frequently, until it disabled my affiliates out of nowhere. Zero response from support, although they were attentive way before the incident.

Jeez, that sucks. Was it just a few personal recommendations, or had you been pushing a lot of new users to this site?

I used to advertise a bunch of sites (including it) through for several years until the policy against gambling came out, so you could say the latter.

Still, I don't see it as spamming as I managed to rack up a sum of commissions from returning players.

If you're getting commission on revenues they are generating it's hard to call it spam, agreed.

The 1xbet and 1xbit claims enforcement is in the final stage, please submit your claim?
