Phishing gambling sites are now becoming more and more willing and Bustabit is now a target for scammers and I'm afraid those who don't research their URLs will be fooled, so this really needs to be more thorough and if you can save the original url in borkmark.

Has anyone become a victim?
I hope there will be no more after a thread that catches this has been enough times so we have to be vigilant.

A specific group is working behind all these bustabit related phishing sites and they are running ads through google. I have seen multiple bustabit related ads like this and recent one is one of them. These scammers have experience about crypto project marketting and they know how to attract crypto oriented investors.

New crypto users have limited knowledge about phishing websites like this and if i am not wrong then some of them don't know which one is bustabit real website. By using browser bookmark option anyone can keep them far from this type of clone websites but question is how many newbies have knowledge about it.

Indeed, behind all that they have their own experience, especially in marketing, and also make this phishing site even spread always through advertisements on Google and that's the top of course this scamer can be said to be very professional in its experts, therefore the option to save in borkmark is a safe option or we remember the original web site and type it directly.

Now the telegram group has become a lot of scamer, even I remember that in the past, slack was used incorrectly by telegram, so you still have to be wise in drawing these conclusions.
