I agree with you, it looks shady as fuck. In addition, and as you said, this individual already had previous negative feedback. For me, what has been stated is more than enough to leave a red tag also warning of the risk.

Nice catch, couldn't have found this one. Sure looks pretty fishy to say the least. I wonder what his intentions are here. Any idea what this would lead to? I mean obviously it's nothing good for sure but still wondering! Maybe creating a flag is also a good idea, just to be sure nobody will fall for it.

Maybe he wants to troll but I think it is more about looking for people that will see the signature campaign, send him message on Telegram to chat with him, then he will plan to scam them. It can be a scam like pay $5 to be able to join the campaign or something. I think to create a flag for such a person is highly appropriate.

I have browsed through several signature threads on the service board and I have not came to see any campaign that the method of application was for interested participants to send a DM to the manager via telegram, what some managers only do is to invite members that they are interested on via PM to join their campaign, it's not the other way round. I suspect it's a scam too, the OP was trying to camouflage but this method is very obvious not to be noticed.

He just made himself much more famous, Initially, the account had only two negative tags and now they are 6. People had even forgotten about the unsolved scam accusation but thanks to the signature campaign launch, it's worth revisiting it - Rakebit Casino Seized $30,000 and Ignored All Inquiries (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5546686.0)

I think based on that case that is not resolved, a type 1 flag can be created in the future.

honestly, this account is just weird, it's the first time i see a casino representative going around the gambling section spamming shitposts.
they post 10 posts a day, and they are super obv (at least to me) AI generated garbage.

i don't know what he thinks he is gonna achieve with this other than a ban for spam.

When I saw their thread in the services section about their signature campaign, it was the first time I'd ever heard of them. The previous incident where one of their players lost $30,000 and they ignored his complaint and haven't tried to resolve it yet indicates that they are untrustworthy and don't care about maintaining their reputation.

Before launching this unprofessional campaign, which I don't think anyone will participate in, they should have solved their customer’s problem, addressed other clients’ complaints, responded to inquiries, and worked on building a good reputation.. Only then should they think about marketing through hiring a trusted campaign manager and a proper designer.. But now, all they're doing is nonsense. Like many other members, I believe the same issue could easily happen again with other customers who might not be able to withdraw their funds. Therefore, I consider this casino to be a highly risky one. The funny thing is that they didn't even bother to write their own posts, but rather used AI to generate posts for them.

That is the first sig campaign with zero applicants I've seen in a while. But the OP was exposed relatively quickly. I of course don't have high hopes for this casino, but its seems like the casino itself got some extraordinarily bad advice from someone who promised them they could increase their presence on Bitcointalk. Nothing but AI posts & shadiness -- no real person operating on behalf of the casino. Its definitely sketchy.

Even though nobody applied for the signature campaign, I raised a flag on rakebit to warn potential players as I think that's the right move at this time (I could potentially be talked out of it later, if something changes).

I have supported the flag too, they really deserved it. Their target is probably external web visitors who might have no idea on what's going on. The banner will instantly warn them once they try to open the ANN.

The person behind the rep account is really doing some very silly job if at all, he is being paid for the marketing here. Using AI to spam around different gambling posts is a new low for him.

@shasan, you could add the flag in the OP: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=3457

Everything seems highly suspicious, and I wouldn't be surprised if accounts with red credibility started promoting the service.

Support the flag.

The crypto gambling industry makes so much money per year, on the scale of hundreds of millions of dollars each, that if any representative has to resort to shitposting on Bitcointalk, that is a major red flag for their platform.

Maybe the person who was controlling the red tagged accounts that advertised 1xbit did not get the memo. Even the the 1xbit approach failed miserably so I don't think that will happen this time round.  ;D

You folks refused to apply to post for them, so the “Marketing team” decided to take matters in their own hands. 10 posts per day, that is…

what's even more mind boggling to me is that he doesn't even have a signature for the casino he is trying to advertise with all this spam, not even a link (beside his profile link, but who checks that on random posts?).
at least other spammers try to gain something, but this guy just like spamming for the fun of it i guess.

it's all just so stupid.

The “signature” being advertised is the username  ;D

Any projects that is managed by this way without them hiring a campaign manager is always tends to be redflag for me because I know that there are things involved which could either be bad acts, and wanting to scam people. At first why should a project like this hire people from Sr-L Members without them posting any signature code, so how do they wants for people to be promoting them?
When something like this comes up, it is a clear evidence that they don't have anything tangible to pay their participants.

Its amazing how he carries on, completely unaffected by 6 red trusts & a flag. He's up to 10 2-3 line AI posts already today. The posts themselves are a bit too short to be accurately analyzed by an AI detector, but they all follow the same format, which is 2 or 3 sentences followed by a question. Every single one of his last 20 posts has ended with a question, lol. I know he thinks "this is the key to getting engagement," lol. But really it just looks like a badly-coded AI spambot.

I'm going to report his posts even though I do admire carrying on in the face of adversity, lol.

Hiring a manager or running a campaign independently is not necessarily a red signal. We've seen some very successful campaigns and services, where they ran the campaign by themselves, and we've also seen some campaigns that had managers and turned into shit.

That is very possible, but to where I am referring to is; if the campaign is being managed by any manager then he would make sure to secure the funds for the participants, or if he wasn't holding any fund he would make it clear to the applicants to know that he is not holding any fund and anyone who is join is on his own risk.. Something like this do exist, than the project running it independently without applicants knowing what is in their mind about their payments.

we are still waiting for you to "clarify" your 10 AI posts a day spam approach, the fake signature campaign approach, and the scam accusation you ignored for months approach.

no you are not, stop lying. you just copied and pasted a bunch of nonsense that was written by AI, what a surprise.

This sounds like a lawyer's statement. If you actually read his post, you would see that he's complaining about the manner you run your signature campaign, which seems not really professional compared to other casinos' marketing campaigns. Not about user deposits.

Zwei, we totally get that some of our recent forum activity and earlier replies might’ve come across the wrong way or caused some confusion. Appreciate you giving us the chance to clear things up.
Just to be transparent, our posts and updates are meant to help the community better understand what we do. We're not here to spam or push anything, just to be open about our platform. And if you ever want to talk privately, our support team is online 24/7 and happy to help directly.
About the signature campaign and the posts you mentioned - the intention was simply to engage with the community and share useful info. If any part of it seemed off or unclear, that's on us. Sorry about that  :-[ We're ready to go over anything with you 1:1, privately if needed.
We take feedback seriously (including past issues). Can't discuss account-specific stuff publicly for obvious reasons, but we're here to answer questions and sort things out in a safe, secure way.
At the end of the day, our goal is simple: keep things fair, transparent, and trustworthy for all players. We really do appreciate open convo like this - it helps us improve.
Feel free to DM or tag us if you'd like to continue the discussion  :)

I'm not sure what you don't understand here, when many members mark you as a spammer with AI posts. 99% of members here know how to use AI tools. Why do you think you need to do that for them?
This is a forum where real people exchange opinions and experiences, and some conclusions of AI bots are undesirable. So, before any expectations that someone will discuss with you publicly or through PM, you must stop using AI help in communication.
Period.

believe me, you are not causing any confusion here, and if you are being paid to manage this account, i don't know who is more stupid, you or the one that hired you.

you are helping no one, not even yourself with those posts, you just say a bunch of stuff without saying anything.

no thanks.

how are you doing that exactly when all you do is spam 10 garbage AI shitposts a day and posting a fake signature campaign?

you are not sorry about any of this, you are sorry you got caught.

why the fuck would i do that? if you have anything to say, say it publicly.

i doubt that.

no one is asking you to do that as none of the issues brought against you require you to disclose any private info.

you failed miserably at that.

why do i even bother replying to this shit, it feels like i'm talking to an AI who's having a stroke.

Zwei, your feelings are quite understandable
But let us clarify:
We did not require posting a signature or proof of authentication on the forum, as our onboarding process was designed to be handled through internal verification and Google Forms.
Joining Telegram was optional for participants who preferred faster communication - nothing more
Regarding "escrow" - sorry, but this is not really true, we have successfully paid all participants without issues, but ofc some cases are being still checked and ongoing
As for the negative tag, we’re aware of it, but it is unrelated to our current campaign activity. We’re working to address it separately.
We’re open to feedback and willing to adjust procedures to better align with forum standards.

Its a bit too late for that... you have 6 negative trusts and a flag... you should have used your opening time on the forum to help build a positive reputation rather than a negative one. Aside from some questionable business practices, you've taken to generating a large amount of spam for the sake of promoting your casino. You shouldn't bother writing posts you wouldn't bother reading, which seem to be the majority of your posts.

We get it - but just to clarify: most of our posts are updates for participants, not random promos. We’re simply trying to keep people informed.
About the negative trusts/flag - thank you for pointing it out. We’re running the campaign, paying participants, and doing our best to follow through, which is the opposite of anything shady.
Still, we’re sorry for the misunderstanding. We never intended to spam or post low-quality content, and we’ll make sure to improve our communication going forward.
Thanks for helping us grow and improve.
