Bitcoin Forum

I am creating this thread to warn about a casino scam. It's called BIT555.IO It is a clone of BC.Game.
They require you to deposit a minimum of $10 in order to withdraw.
However, if you start too much, they block you claiming that you violated the site's rules.

The best way to do this is to move this thread to the scam accusations board. Go to the bottom left of this thread and click on 'move topic'.

Then, use this format:

Thank you for this reminders mate but can you share some proofs here? or at least site links and how they scam you when violating their terms?

we have seen many casinos like this nowadays  , when a casino let you deposit and play but when you need to withdraw then there is the issue, they will require you to submit or go over KYC requirements and then after they will tell you a cheater and being banned.

Can you clarify the source of the winning amount since it’s not logical to withdraw without doing any deposit unless you get it via bonus of the casino which typically requires deposit in able to withdraw the bonus amount the you earn. Do you initially deposit in the casino and still they didn’t allow you to withdraw? And if it’s came from the bonus then can you provide the ToS for the specific bonus that you claim. It’s very unfair to accused the unknown casino for being a scam without proof rather than your words since most of the user here will be easily jump into conclusion because the casino in question is not reputable here.

Provide proof for you claim to be fair and move this on scam accusation board.

What is the real problem you are facing? They block your account which contains deposit money? or other.
Yes it is impossible for you to include a screenshot of your account if your account has been blocked but at least you can provide other evidence that can substantiate this accusation.

maybe he got it from freespin because when I checked into the casino he mentioned there was a freespin feature even though I don't have any details about this

So, you are claiming they are scams due to only being for the exact layout of bcgame? If so then what about nanogames.io? I assume they are maybe using the same software. I'm not sure though.
They could have some specific rules for their platform. But this does not mean they are scams. You should provide proof of the problem you are facing and that you feel it's suspicious.

And of course, the topic should be moved to the BTT section about the scammer after the OP provides solid evidence why he considers himself deceived by these devs of such a project. 
And is there any good reason to think so when they are just using software similar to other casinos?

Some gambling sites which may later become trustworthy can start with an already existing software source code if they do not have enough they budget for it. But it is true that scammers can be lazy and prefer to go for such option too, but that does not mean a gambling site is a scam only due to that reason. We need more evidence.

I do not recommend any new casino sites that do not have active official thread on this forum, BIT555[dot]IO is not on this forum, I checked and I haven't seen any trace about the gambling site on this forum before. The gambling site was created few months ago, not up to a year, not on this forum, such gambling site should not be used in my opinion.

They blocked you? Do the casino site request for KYC? Do they request for anything in order for you to be unblocked?

because you don't just provide information about some casino scams. and focus on the experience you are getting, you should move your thread to the  Scam Accusations. I think that would be more appropriate.
@Don Pedro Dinero has given you a thread, there is also a format you can follow.

You can also add details of your problem. can't make a withdrawal? they ask for KYC? or you make a deposit and you are blocked?

Thank you for the warning pal! This is awkward but common in the gambling space, it is the players that will be careful and use only the ones they can trust not minding high/attractive offers. This is why I don't bother to play with the new casinos, who knows what they could do with your money? But at times, the scheme might still be planned by the BC.Game itself, you might not know. A lot is happenings in the gambling and betting space where even a legit site will have other sites they dedicate to scamming people.

It is good that scam sites if found are immediately presented here in the forum so everyone cannot fall victim of such sites.The one thing I don't understand though is why people go and play to such new sites when we already have a couple strong,trustworthy,reputable casinos which offer all the features anyone can need.That is what needs to change,people should only play in these casinos with these attributes otherwise when they play to newly created sites there is a big chances of being scammed as we don't know who runs the site and this is a big risk factor which anyone should avoid.

You do not have to mention BC.game here if they are not affiliated with each other in fairness to BC.game, and you should move this topic in the scam section following the right format, it's easy to create a story, and it's different if you have proofs to back it up until you do all these your story is not credible, but still people should be warmed about this issue and confirm this story, it's hard to play in a casino with issues that are not yet verified.

just like what sujonali1819 has said, they could have a specific rule on their ToS that the gambler would need to deposit a total of $10 before being able to withdraw. I wish you can elaborate more on the issue and post the necessary evidence to support your claim.

anyway, you can try posting on their  ANN thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5391939.0) but the OP of that thread has been inactive and hasn't even updated the thread he created.

Thanks for the warning OP!
We need more information about the scam you mentioned. Please provide your account dashboard screenshot. I am sure you would have contacted support so you also need to provide the chat screenshot. Then only we can determine whether it is a scam or not. In general, I prefer to only use casinos that have listed their ANN on this forum and not anyone unknown.

A clone site/s isn't an outright scam site at all. Withdraw what? As others have suggested, please fill us more in about more proof or information, you're likely lacking all of it. Have you been already a victim of it or you're just posting this on behalf of someone else?

I often wonder why people didn't do much research first before they interact with a site, especially if it involves their money. I mean not being techy is quite difficult, fraud do exists, but we have options like doing your research and the web is there to help you. There are basically lot of trusted website but people still want new and underrated sites, it's not wrong but for the sake of experience then it's perfectly good.

The details on this is rather shallow and one can't grasps what your saying exactly except you screaming scam.
I don't seem to understand what you mean by "starting too much" to have result a violation and an inevitable block so, you might want to clear the air on that too for users to look into.

Just put of curiosity, where you scammed? Or you know someone that has been scammed through this means? Or you just have a bad feeling about the site being a cloned site.

Meanwhile, the board you've chosen for this is for Ann threads and so, it would be best you move this thread to the scam accusation board.

Your story is very vague, first, you don't attach other casino names if you are complaining on one site, a clone is like similarity and that could mean the same management show proof that they are one, second, where is the withdrawal coming is it from winning from your initial deposit or bonus, third what do you mean by start to much, it's unclear on what you're trying to say, and once they block you can contest your violation, but you are not telling us anything and this is why people are suspicious of your story, tell us more by showing all your proofs not just the same old story this casino is a scam because they block me.

There's something fishy about that casino site, no doubt about it. Apart from being an identical copy of a popular site, their reputation online doesn't look good.
Their domain was only registered last year and is already expiring in a few months, so it's possible they'll do a rug pull soon.


While I don't give too much weight to reviews on Trustpilot because they can easily be faked, in this case it is worth noting that this company has an overall rating of 100% bad with a total of 8 reviews.

-  You should show evidence mate because it appears that it's just your allegation or rumor, you didn't even mention the name of the gambling platform, and are you the victim of the scam? if yes, how much did you get? these things you should put in the topic you will make as you did here. Then there is a place here in the forum about the scam accusation thread section.

Unless you just want to create a topic here just to make a post. You must show credible things that make your statement believable.

If I would asked you, how were you being scammed?
What shows your evidence or claims that they are scammer or asking for $10 additional fees to make withdrawal from their website.

Lastly it would be of a great stupidity for someone to make deposit before withdrawing funds from such site. Back then at my early stage here, someone sent me a site to make an account, which I did as he said after which he said to help him make withdrawal from that site that he would send in 6 BT C to site I should withdraw and take commission of 2 BTC and send him the remaining 4 BTC his address he sent me.

First I was like asking myself a question, why would he sent me 6 btc and I should take 2 btc as a commission. I gat to chat him up and asked him ' why can't you do the withdrawal by yourself instead asking me to withdraw for you', and he then said " We restricted from making withdrawal from my country and secondly he is an agent so if he made a withdrawal he might likely be suspected and suspended".

At this point I was a bit confused, and I said okay, so I make the account back then and he sent 6 btc to the site but before making the account, I created a new mail and use and random password to create everything with him. Since I was already thought about security so I was very vigilant about being hacked or compromise my password.

So I make all details as requested by him, and I sent him the mail and he sent the BTC though me already have started sensing unusual activity, after he sent he then asked me to withdraw out 6 btc and keep 2 for my service charge.

Guess what?

When I tried to make withdrawal I was asked to make deposit of 1 BTC to enable me withdrawal 6 BTC at this point I concluded it was a scam and I chatted him up and why did they asked me to send 1 btc for withdrawal fee he said I should do it that after I withdraw I can take 3 btc and send him 3.
Well I smile and laugh loud saying 'you cheap scammer wanna scam me'?

So I forwarded him the email and password, login details to login and make the withdrawal himself so I won't be accused for stealing his money.
He pleaded for me to make deposit and withdraw the btc, I said now you already have login details why you make it yourself and paying the withdrawal fee of 1 btc.

It was then I totally understand he is a scammer.
Be warned as they used many ways to trapped in people.

Thanks for the warning, @OP. At least, that can help us to stay away from the site and not try to play there. But I guess you should explain the whole story so we know what is really happening.

If they block your account because they think you violated the site's rules, you can explain and show proof that you are not trying to do that. Hopefully, @OP can come back with his explanation.

I think we should consider the information from the OP although we should confirm some of the information that has been provided for the required $10 deposit and the account will be banned without doing anything wrong.

I have reviewed both sites to open 2 different tabs, the interface of the new casino site bit555.io seems to copy almost completely from the original site BC.Games, although the new casino may be inspired by the popular casino interface but copying the template 100% is a suspicion worth considering, another thing bit555 also copies the TOS from BC.Game.

It looks like the OP doesn't mean that having the same design or layout from another gambling platform is how they scam but rather with the twisted rules from the site. I guess the gambling platform is somehow brand new based from how they scam users. Having to deposit before withdrawal as well as not being able to cater or provide limit to users who made huge deposits.

Still OP needs to provide more information and evidence to support this scam accusation especially with those block accounts due to high deposits.

Anyways, I wouldn't trust any gambling platforms that has the same format or design from another gambling platform.

Come on man, the site link is mentioned although not clickable.

Plus the site is really a copycat website of bc.game, from the color scheme, icons used, layout and etc. At least this is more obvious than the stake and punt where people are too eager to report because of the similarity. People also noticed this and posted on their ann thread^[1] also some related issues about the casino too.

[1] https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5391939.0

Does BC.GAME outsource their software to other websites as well ?
I get it that there should have been some kind of scam in order to treat this as a legit scam but isn't cloning a website a theft in itself?
If BC.GAME doesn't outsource their software then this is a classic theft and most probably this website would try to scam their users in future since they have copied the software from other website.

This warning actually let me know, there is a clone site and it operates like a be imitated site, thanks for giving this warning anyways. I've never played there so it's still safe to know this before, I think very strange how can starting a deposit too much can violate the site, isn't it great to have an active user so play with the money he has?

Just wondering how you end up encountering that site. Did you use them for real?

Either way, just always make sure to check the right URL of the gambling site. More importantly, always stick with those reputable sites to minimize the fraud and being scammed by these crappy websites. Be vigilant in most cases.

Anyways, thanks for the heads up!

Well the sites are completely 100% same like bc.game, even though the @OP didn't put any evidence yet, but this is really a red flag since how can a legit casino is copying other casino UI/UX? it's just a copycat and they're not professional. I know there's few casinos that have similar design and they're not a scammer, but they're not copying the the whole thing including the colors and words by words.

Now I wonder how can @OP can find this casino since they're inactive in this forum. I'm going to leave negative tag to them to warn other people about this casino.

I think he's not only pertaining to how exact were the web site layout compared to bc.game.
He said this:
@DenyHunter, do you have any evidences to support your claim about that?
Where did you get that information? Is it a personal experience or someone you knew experienced it to their site?
We would be glad if you can add more input here to strengthen your accusation.

When posting a report you must provide a reliable proof for it. Otherwise the post is not evaluated. so follow the Report format which is Don Pedro Dinero already mentioned here


And if if able to fill this format then open a scam thread on scam Accusations . coz this this is not right place to report about  anything

That they are a clone of BC.game has already been written in their topic, but I didn't understand the context, you can't withdraw funds that you won after making a deposit or it was some kind of promo code, in any case, the withdrawal fee requirement is a sign of fraud and there is no such item in their "ToS". But you could somehow make a more reasoned statement about this by giving at least screenshots of the deposit and your bets at this casino otherwise it does not sound convincing.

edit: The rules for receiving a deposit bonus are not disclosed to them, they copied bc.game and even made the same icon "Deposit bonus terms", but when you click on it you get to the help center, where there is no disclosure of this information about bonuses is only mentioned in section #8 "Terms of sports"

Good job OP, thanks for reporting it. I wish more people had the time to hut for these sites and report them as they pop up.

I never play at these new sites because there's so many scams that those of us who were in this business for a while know what they should avoid. That said, I wonder how many people get caught by these scammers every day. How many people send money to unverified copycat sites without checking their reviews and reputation.

But the look of the website, it really looks a copy of bc.game.

As said, it's already a sign that people shouldn't deposit there. Thus, the condition that has been said about depositing first is the usual thing not only in casinos but also in exchanges that are likely to scam.

Well done for OP for finding this out and just follow the suggestion of posting this on the Scam Accusations board.

That's what I think op mean about it. Not because it is similar to other casinos doesn't mean it's a scam. I don't think this warning thread won't last long if op never provided much better proof that the casino is a scam though I made some little research about reviewsnof this casino and many of them have problems where most of them not being paid due to having multiple accounts. A website that ask you to deposit first is mostly a scam site and when I know about that situation then I would stay away from it without hesitation.

Man, often this fact is enough to tell that sites are linked. Scammers often do not change layout, since it needs additional money, effort and time. And they don't want to get bothered with all of this. So they just change domain name, mostly.

Yep, sometimes new casinos can use cheap software which also can be used by scammers. But this also tell a lot about such casinos, because this is not good if they don't want to invest even in their software.

Op haven't posted any evidence, but the comparison of both the interface is almost similar with very few changes. Even the colour contours were the same, which creates doubt over the platform. Always good to go with the trusted casinos available. If you're entering into the BC.game and it can get redirected to this platform. In that point we need to be very careful while entering any particular casino.

An exact copy with a different name would suggest a scam. How would you expect OP to test it? Send money there to see if they allow a withdrawal?:D
Nobody makes a copy of a working site for legit purposes, just like people don't make these scam links where one of the l letters are switched to I to run a legit business.

A warning is a warning. If someone from that site wants to clarify this they're free to do so. 

^ If OP has full evidence about what he has been scammed that is good to convince more others to believe his warning but upon reading the replies above I am already convinced. I wanted to know how OP was scammed or in what way.
Copied interface with identical views is a red flag already and probably I will not even continue making an account if there someone will give me the website link on that casino. That is why we should not use unknown gambling casinos, just always heads up to a repeated and popular one that has a current business here so that it will easily ask them about their activities.

I don't think it matters whether the OP was personally scammed by the casino or not. It's important to warn the community and other players if there is something suspicious about a casino site.
All in all, it is in our players' best interest to post reviews whenever possible, especially if they're negative. If a site has terrible customer service, we want to know about it! If a casino is constantly cheating players, everyone needs to know about it. If anything, I learned that you have to be very careful when trusting new casinos with your money. This is exactly where the strength of community comes in, because when you have the experience of other players before you, you don't have to risk your money on a new, shady casino.

Would be great if the OP will post this in the scam accusations board so other people will be warned as well.
But if not, this is already a good reference for all the gamblers here to double-check and beware of this site.
If they want to check this out, they can always try with their min deposit and see how it goes.
This casino has no thread here, so more than likely, they can get victims outside this forum.

Hello guys! I will explain the situation. The casino mentioned here is an identical copy of BC.Game. It started to capture players offering level continuation compared to other sites. I registered and used it normally. They paid a few times, however, they started to require a minimum of 10$ to be entitled to withdrawals. I deposited this amount. I cashed out 2 more times. In this, I managed to make the value of a measly 240 TRX from the bonus that the site gives. From there I requested the withdrawal. Minutes later, my account was blocked. I talked to support and they said I had multiple accounts. I confronted support with the information as they spoke and it turned out that what they said was not correct. So I talked to other players on other sites and some said the same thing happened to them. Soon I will post the prints of the support statements here.

Stop mentioning BC.game if they are not of the same admin and you have no proof of ownership of both casinos and should lock this thread and create a scam accusation in the scam section of this forum, follow the right format on how to open a scam accusation you can see that in the pinned post.
and why are you saying soon do you not have an access to your account anymore so you can screenshot the conversations it will only take a few minutes to screenshot your pieces of evidence and upload it on image-sharing sites like Imgur.

Probably a clone site to scam people, though there’s no evidence yet for this claim I guess we should be more careful now. Though some site really requires a minimum deposit for you be able to withdraw from the site, and the required deposit is not that big but the question is, why the site block the player after that? Maybe he really violated the rules or the site are just a scam site? Have to stay neutral for this until some evidence appear to support this claim.

OP clearly pointed out in the opening post that suspected site is a clone of BC.game casino. He never said that they were related in any other way or that they have the same owner. Why are you putting that on him? This topic is unrelated to BC.game casino and cannot affect their reputation in any way.

He can create a scam accusation if he wants to, that doesn't mean we can't discuss a particular gambling platform here too, because that's exactly what this board is for.


Maybe he's taking some time to gather and organize all the evidence, or maybe he has personal things that need attending before he can start working. Why does it matter?

1. Create a proper scam thread using the proper format.

2. You knew it was a clone site of BC.Game. Then why still play on it? If it is a clone site, then there is a 99.99% chance that they are here to scam you. A casino that can't give an effort to build their own design has no intention to run a legit casino.

3. You needed to make a deposit to withdraw? I guess you were using their free coins or something. Always read the Terms of service before playing in a casino. Most casino won't like it if you withdraw free money.

Well, later the OP mentions that he made a minimum deposit of $10, but before that he had already withdrawn funds, so it is quite possible that bonuses were used about which there is no exact description at this casino, we will wait for a more detailed statement, now the picture itself that led to the blocking of the player is not clear.

You mean when you are about to withdraw, you will need to deposit a fresh 10 usd for your withdrawals to be processed? Maybe this was a withdrawal fee but this was still a lot and maybe you are winning too much, that is why they suspect your account for being shady. I think if that happens with other casinos, they will also do the same. Are you sure that you are not using some kind of exploits or hacks?

But anyway, I check the site and you are right, they look like a carbon copy of b.c game. B.c game should be notified about this and let see if what will be their take but for now we will take note about what you said, we will also avoid this site.

Apparently the casino has made it a requirement that everyone deposit a minimum of $10 a month to keep their account active, which is definitely a warning sign.
I've never heard of any other casino doing this. I mean, it's fine to remove dead accounts after a long period of inactivity, but this is a whole new level.

So @dragonvslinux, I hope you have your telegram mention notifications active.

My question is why are you opposing a legitimate looking trust flag against Bit555.io who seem to be scammers according to scam accusations here and the very many negative reviews on trustpilot?

Any reason that we may not have any idea about?
