It seems that the attack on bustabit continues, like this one, just 1 day old website, freshly created by this criminals to take advantage of those who uses Google to search for bustabit games.

You can find my thread here with similar: Warning: Bustabit phishing site (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5298787.0).

Is it from google AD again as someone has reported it many time? This kind of phising site never ends, just add AD blocker to prevent you from this phising site

Ad blocker can prevent it, but still we don't know how many crypto gamblers are using them to prevent this kind of malicious websites appearing on Google. Regardless, members reporting it here and exposing them scams are what makes this community stronger. I reported this already to Google.

Just right click on it, click ->Why this add then- Report this add.

I already did report this fake Bustabit site, it's too fold though, it means that Bustabit, as the original crash game has attracted the attention of cyber criminals because it is still in the online crypto gaming despite so many competitions behind. So it remain on top of the game and it's ripe for this criminals to target them.

Best way is to bookmark the real site.

seeing that all the phishing site about bustabit looks the same I assume it is the same guy or maybe a team that does this. I wonder how much money have they spend buying domains and how much have they'd scam(if they'd scam any) from unsuspecting gamblers.

I've seen the ad yesterday and reported it I just forgot to post it here thanks for sharing for awareness.

yep, that's the best way to avoid this but for me, I'd rather see it, report it and share it if I see one.

I am sure this will definitely repeat itself because these scamers are in groups so they will target the famous gambling sitsu easily in the designs they make as closely as possible so our job is to verify properly and report it hopefully this can be acted upon faster by his party. .

It is not impossible that a new phishing site with a well-known company name will appear, as we all know Roobet has also been the target of phishing scamer before.

just want to bump this thread and update that the ad of the phishing site is still visible to those who don't use an ad blocker and the website is still running. it's appaling that google still hasn't made a move regarding this issue.
I ask to spend a small time reporting the website to keep others from falling victim to the website

Bookmarking only works if you know the website but if you are a newbie and you are searching for something, I think that it will be difficult. Not for this one though, .cam domain is a very rare type to be used and I do think that the only newbies that will find this kind of website are those that are searching at the 2nd page of Google. I did my part and reported the website, good thing that it was busted this early in its creation as a website. Hopefully, this catch by OP will be enough for the scammers to abandon the website which means that it is another victory for the scam hunters.
I did check your claim and I reported the problem with the Ads, I purposefully searched for this ads to report it. We can't blame Google, a lot of websites are coming and going in their platform to advertise, it is not that scam proof and not to mention that they get money from this, no matter how dirty the advertiser is.

Still, I have used Adbloker after visiting Google with Bustabit search and it seems that there is still a phishing site in the order number 1. Indeed, maybe we have reported a lot but the action has never been responded to I think this needs to be eradicated so that people do it search on google does not choose the first order to access the Bustabit gambling site.

why can't we blame them? the ad has been reported the day it was discovered(that includes me). it's been almost 3 weeks yet nothing has been done.

yeah, they are not so maybe perhaps having a quick response regarding reports about phishing sites that they advertise is the best thing to do to protect the people who use their platform.

They are a scummy company and they make money because of this ads, so they will not just act on it just cause someone reported it, remember that a lot of reports about ads in Google are coming every single day. AFAIK, there should be an algorithm that will not show the ads to many people if it gets reported for malicious purposes, I might be wrong about it though, I am not that good with inner workings of website and ads.
It is not that I am siding with Google here but I don't think that all the problem should be the responsibility of the company when it comes to phishing websites, people should learn to watch out for themselves, kind of like reciprocating the responsibility.

just want to update that bustabit.cam is now not visible(most likely has been removed as an ad) when searching bustabit.com or bustabit.cam on google search but the website is still active.

AFAIK, bustabit owner aware of all these phishing sites and trying hard to supress them and as a security measures he added mandatory email verification on bustadice probably on Bustabit as well so no one can login without clicking the email send to the verified email when user tries to login from new device, hope this can save few people.
