From the looks, I think OP reviews are not accurate having seen some casinos on the review sites that shows OP did not really conduct his or her research properly before concluding and making it public for view. Possibly OP is promoting his or her affiliate link to make profit without considering the credibility of the casinos being promoted on the review site because that is the reason OP did this.
It’s already a No go no trust review site to me as I have already considered most review site to be. Most of this review site lack data accuracy although I have seen few which might appear to be legit as they use a transparent means of data collection which others can also verify there data and how there rating was done.

Casino Reviews are increasing day by day this period, don’t that tells you something, it’s obvious that most of them are just there to build few trust in the back they can use there power and publicity to strike a deal with casino owners to give them too review and at the end of the day those who are willing to pay higher gets to there top most trusted list, the Op and the people incharge of controlling the review site given 1xbet 5 stars proves all my suspicions, they didn’t start good so no point in trusting them again.

Of a truth what you have said is no doubt the reality. Most of these review sites are just after their pockets as they lack credible data accuracy to present to the community. Their reviews are not trustworthy and unreliable. Just as you have said, the sudden increase in casino review sites is not far fetched from your intuition as it is business as usual for them to have their own share of the cake from the casinos and also getting referral commission too.

When I first noticed this  casino review on 1xbit here I began to doubt their credibility to what they have done already because it is certain that all the casino listed on their website went through the same process of review before they were presented so how are we sure that are not the same categories of casinos just like the 1xbit they have listed because I do not know some of the listed casinos and I have not seen them here before aside the will known ones that were listed to be credible here and I believe they did list them as a result of the backlash they got here without even doing any proper review as to really know the ratings of the casinos but rather since they were mentioned here to be reputable, they quickly include them on the first priority list for us to see.

OP there is no wrong in your post but seems obvious this is coming from a newbie who should be reading and learning more about the platform and Bitcoin. Well I have no doubt about your identity for you to have come up with these measures and I will add just a little here; do not click links you have no knowledge about both on email, social media. Avoid airdrops and unnecessary free giveaways. Do not authorise any connections online with your wallet. Anybody that PM's you claiming to be an agent block them as they are scammers. Do not spend your coin to anybody for exchange or transaction without a reputable escrow here. I believe these few tips could help you through your journey here.
The ops hard a nice title for the thread that attracted alot pf attention to this thread but somewhere along the line, ops missed out on highlighting all the possible technical and emotional strategies to avoiding scam attempts and that is why he have limited hos explanation to only this basic advice instead of handing out a tool that could help.


Anyways just to add my own quota to this discussion, the most effective thing to do is to first of all have the basic knowledge on most scam schemes and also not being greedy to jump on any offer will also save you a whole lot along the line.
Truly his ideas were someworth limited but he gave clues which were more of good importance to anyone who wants to stay safe from scammers.  Having the basic knowledge is very vital and good tips at hand to note scams very quickly which I did highlight from my initial reply which of followed can guide newbies through to avoid falling for scams and scammers. Every one needs to be vigilant and alert always to note scams and avoid them so they do not have their details used against them or their funds and assets stolen.

1023  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: An agent is no where to be found. on: October 15, 2023, 06:19:18 PM
This is where the problem with centralised gambling or casino starts from. It is still same as you winning online and the casino suddenly shots down and nowhere to be found with your wins nor your deposit. It is likewise you winning and the casino refuses to pay your win citing irregularities and discrepancies with your game which therefore denies you the opportunity to make claims of your win.

Decentralisation is absolutely the best. You win, you withdraw. No body denies or steal your rewards from you unlike what OP has just said here. I really do not think that agent would be seen anywhere near that environment again because that act was a preplanned act and I must say that he or she has no conscience to have done that.

I have not heard about this casino before neither have I seen them before and I don't think they are here on bitcointalk platform. They are just some random casino out there but not to mention, OP you have no much evidence here to back up your claims. You claimed they owe you money how much did you deposit with them? What games did you play with them to gain $99 which you claimed to make withdraw. Present concrete information and evidence here so that members can intercede on your behalf otherwise you have no or case at hand.

1026  Economy / Gambling / Re: 1XBIT.COM ᐉ 7 BTC WB ᐉ Altcoin Betting ᐉ no KYC ᕗ Instant payouts on: October 13, 2023, 05:00:37 PM
you can see that 1xbet is the sponsor of the game, this was a game that was held in Brazil, as you can see in this photo, 1xbet is very visible for thousands of people who went to this stadium to watch this game, without a doubt it is a lot of exposure they are getting, they don't even seem like they are the most scam casino in the world, but this is on the internet, because there they are seen as a reliable and of good reputation. so this is a lost war, as long as governments close their eyes and do not punish this scam casino, then they will continue to create scam casinos on the internet constantly and people will use them and lose money. unfortunately
Yeah. 1xbet is on another level when compared to 1xbit which is why they are the parent company and I see their advertisements everywhere. What's ironic is that Trustpilot gave 1xbit a higher rating when compared to 1xbet.

https://www.trustpilot.com/review/1xbit.com
https://www.trustpilot.com/review/1xbet.com

1xbet is one of the most popular gambling sites in the world which is why fighting them is a tough battle as you mentioned.
Fighting 1xbet I think would be very difficult  as they are very much popular as a result of their strong advertisement every where. In my country virtually every store you enter you would see their sticker and stations are doing their advert virtually every hour. Influencers and celebrities too are paid heavily to promote the casino which makes it near impossible to fight them standstill. If only this sets of people promoting them had idea of this platform and see the numerous complaints of members about the casino I believe many would have long been done with the 1xbet casino. However they are too strong as a result of the funds they had gotten from their scams and using it for strong promotion every where.

Reviews has been done while ago and as you guys are saying it's definitely NOT 5 star casino. Our rating process is: Bonus, license, withdrawal, other limits and reputation. 

Next week we will start a big project where we go through all the reviews and test them again. Reputation will be big part and we will have a new section for it.

If you have good ideas what else these should be let me know!
After get complained, then you change the rating from 5 stars become 4 stars, do you think they deserve to get 4 stars? if I'm the developer I will either remove it, give 0 star or moved to casino that must be avoid.



This is the reason why read review sites is bad instead of checking the casino reputation in this forum.

I think OP removed the casino from their review site due to the agitation here for it to be reviewed.  Seems OP has a listening ear and values the input of the community to be very insightful. Possibly, OP had learnt his lesson of doing a proper research before concluding and presenting things of such nature here because this is a platform and a community of millions of people all over the world with various perspective and view of their own, coupled with their experience from their walks of life.
1028  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you play while listening music? on: October 13, 2023, 04:12:24 PM
It is something I do most times. The tempo of the music cools ones nerves coupled with the ambience of the environment you are in. These are some of the reasons why it is nice you play for fun irrespective of the fact that you are winning or losing a game. This could help in most cases to cool down your tempo at any point in time while gambling.

I would not talk about it that merely listening to music while playing games makes one win. That is a fallacy because I see no correlation  between them. Music is played for fun and some times for inspiration and motivation and not to win a game. You can only say played music to calm your tempo which you feel or think gives you the more motivation to play and you possibly win the game. What if you lose the game  while playing music too would you attribute it to the music for making you fail? The answer I believe would be no so if you feel like playing music while gambling it's up to you.
1029  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who among you here is gambling at work? on: October 13, 2023, 04:02:00 PM
I have actually not done that before because I know the repercussion to it. On a normal it is against work ethics and in most occasion might have side effects on ones work abilities. These are amongst the reasons why some organisations put on their caution that no worker should be seen operating phone while at work but sometimes some workers sneak out to do that.

The side effect of gambling while at work is demoralising. The thought of losing a game puts you off balance and weakens your morals to work not to talk of when you are indebted and have a family to cater for. These are the reasons why it is advised to gamble responsibly and with what you can afford to lose without it bothering you.

1030  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake phishing on: October 13, 2023, 03:30:27 PM
Stake has already built a good reputation, and even though they were recently hacked, they are still operational now.

What happened to you is not the fault of Stake; there are a lot of hackers out there. You should know how to determine if an email is legitimate or not. Of course, phishing links are very popular, but there's always a way to verify if the email is genuine or just an attempt to hack you. As a gambler with a significant amount of money in your account, it's essential to educate yourself on ways to protect your funds wisely.
Stake is leading crypto casino that has been running for several years and now they have managed to have a very good reputation with customer trust so high that every customer does not need to worry about the security that Stake provides to every customer because customer comfort and security is priority the main.

It is true that some time ago Stake was hacked but now it is running normally and there is nothing to worry about because the team will also do their best so that the hack does not cause customers to suffer losses.
Regarding fake emails we can actually immediately distinguish them if we have been customers of Stake for long time because it is impossible for Stake to send email messages that might seem suspicious.

Now we can go back to playing and betting in complete comfort so don't hesitate to come back and play there.

Stake has always been amongst the world leading online crypto casino so far and I believe by now they must have fixed up the mess of the hack they experienced in the past with high sophisticated security apparatus to protect their users and their casino as well.  This casino is a casino I know that does not really take the safety and security of their users and assets for granted.  As everyone has his or her own interest, so stake does and their users are their number one priority when it gets to rendering quality services.

As for messages, every user of the platform can be able to decipher between a fake and scammy email from the original or better still if one doubts the authenticity of an email together with the originality, one is free to contact the customer care for further information because that is the only option to explore it in knowing the authenticity of the email they have received.

One of reason why its hard to believe that they are willing to compromise their users for certain small amount while they can earn a lot of revenue from their operation so there's no relevance regarding on those claims since many knows that Stake is spending a lot of money just to increase their traffics and revenue. Maybe those people claiming that they are been scam are been found out guilty for the abuse they made on their casino and they can't accept the fact that they are been restricted due to that reasons.

To many reminders about those shady email and if they receive a deceiving mail claiming something that they can avail something unrealistic profit shares coming from them or any bonuses then they must verify it to the right supports to know the legitimacy of the email they got and avoid to be a victim of phising or scamming.

One receiving an email from a scammer should be able to verify the genuity of their email first before engaging. Possibly to be that they are not dealing with the wrong persons and to be on the safe side, after verifying the mail to not be from the genuine source, they should delete and block the sender domain and they would not receive any mail from them any further.

Lastly I do not think cheap black mailers can be able to distract stake from rendering services as the ought to because stake is far bigger than them to talk about. People crying of being scammed possibly tailed to fulfill their own path of agreement and that must have held them down. So I think they should go clear their names than crying foul.
1031  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Why most of the post aren't bitcoin related topics on: October 13, 2023, 03:08:00 PM
OP, it is nice you asked this question. We all know this platform is a Bitcoin and Crypto based platform so therefore it is a global one that accommodates many people from different walks of life.

Back to our own local board, just as I have said earlier, there are different people with different careers and professions and are willing to contribute to the development of this board and would do that by rendering solutions to any existing challenges encountered here. Some talk in their vernacular and that has helped them alot and other members too who are listening and watching to learn new things every day. So OP I think we should not expect only Bitcoin related post only because there are no restrictions on the pattern and types of posting here. This platform is an open one and we can learn here everyday while engaging in enteraction with one another.
1032  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Making bitcointalk writing much easier on: October 13, 2023, 02:47:19 PM
I have had this experience several times and to be frank it sucks mate. It is not worth the experience of writing a very long and lengthy post and after which you mistakenly press the back key making you to loose all you have written. After that experience I decided to download sticky note for external typing and after I am done, I copy and paste on the platform for publication here. That is how I roll after then.

For the code breakdown you have done, that is a good one on your side. One can copy them and keep on their notepad there so it could be accessible for them when ever they are writing things to be be posted here for reading.
1033  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: BUA reduce price of cement. A new strategy to end monopoly. on: October 13, 2023, 02:34:47 PM
If all business men in the country will be like AA RANO oil and BUA cement then the poor in the country will indeed have some air to breath,  this move by BUA cement is going to set them at a position that will place the company on a market take over in the long term unless if the competitors do what is more than what BUA cement have done presently and even at that also we have to encourage the company for taking the bold steps to stand by Nigerian in the economic hard time.

Let hope other companies such as Dangote will follow this footsteps also in reducing the price of his cements, and other basic good to help corsion the effects and impact of the current economic crisis that have been triggered by subsidy removal and so on.

The last time I checked, I heard the manufacturers are justling for price rate ever since BUA cement slashed the price of cement to the current price they are selling. I think there is more to this move by BUA founder than we could imagine. The cartel holding that industry seems to have had enough but whatever the case maybe,  BUA just did something every reasonable human would have deep thought about and do. This move by him will definitely
cause reform in that particular industry that would benefit every Nigerian and the nation as a whole. BUA cement has taken over the cement industry. It is either other sellers or manufacturers do the needful or they miss out.
1034  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: Should illegal stealing of crude oil be discarded? on: October 13, 2023, 12:09:59 PM
Stealing of crude is illegal and economic sabotage as enshrined in the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. However it is not a new thing that there are recorded cases of crude oil theft in the nation but what was the outcome of it, nothing everything swept under the carpet.

Last year we were told that Navy intercepted a 300,000 metric tonnes of crude oil vessel loaded within Nigeria sea shore which was caught  and they told us that the vessel was destroyed and burnt by the Navy. Who would believe such a cock and bull tale, do you know how much that product is worth in the market? Would they not have taken it to the national reserve to load it up there while the vessel is held by the Navy for further prosecution. Many many stories we hear when ever any crude theft is about to be linked to any top official, they look for ways to cover it up but when it gets to the local refinery a.k.a kpofire, you here the news all over the broadcasting station so that people would know they are working while they are just using that to paint the people of the South black and to justify their wrong assertions.

Our refineries does not produce up to the capacity to supply the whole nation consumption rate just In a week not to talk of month and they at the top knows this even the so called importers knows this too so now how is it  possible that they can meet up with the regular supply which means that the local refineries are the ones sustaining the nation in terms of product supply. How many filling stations have you seen selling D.P.K, or A.G.O.? but you see DPK in shops and roads selling. How were they produced? Who produced them? These are food for thought. I believe you will have answers to them yourself so think over it and you will realise why the stealing of crude is still happening and the reasons behind it too.

It is good sharing your game strategy as this would also give other gamblers hint on how to go about their games as well but I think it all points towards one being lucky as well because I am meant to understand that what might  likely work for Mr A might not work for Mr B  vice versa. That's the logic and everyone have had their own pattern of playing games. Some people might feel a particular day and time is very much favourable to them to play with the believe that they would win their games with luck on their side and it works out that way for them. Although your strategy would be an added advantage if practiced but not all strategies work for everybody mate.

1038  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do you not gamble on women sports? (tennis not included) on: October 12, 2023, 09:51:38 PM
I think it is because men sport are more mainstream, more advertised around here and I general people in my country get more excited about them, which encourages me to watch the matches and even consider to bet on them.

During last World Cup in Qatar one could feel the excitement in the air and one could see people gathering in the squares and around TVs in public. It is not the same with the Women Word Cup, unfortunately.
I am not sure whether it is a cultural thing or the societies in charge of those sports do not have enough funding to further advertise their events as much as the male sports are.

Sports initially started  with male performance and more popular than female because of the fun and entertainment that comes with it. Of a  truth the male sports are more advertised than the female because of the attention it commands when games are ongoing. If you meet a  group of youth and ask them the preferred sexes in sports they would tell you male because of the  enthusiasm attached to male sports and the players too are well known to also command follower-ship to always watch their performance.

World cup always comes with excitement and joy because it is more of a sport festival and serves as a means to unify ethnics, tribes, religions, countries and continents together. This being so makes the male sport more entertaining, economical and rejuvenating.

It may also something to do with most women not being into sports, as fanatics. On one hand, there are women who complain on the lack of attention their female leagues get from the public, but at the same time women seem not to be interested in those leagues and sports.

Perhaps, in future generations of girls started to be educated and engaged in sports and understand the importance of it, then probably when they become women they would be excited to watch the Female football Cup.  It is something which feminist orgs could work on, instead of doing stuff which can be politically problematic in the eyes many, like protesting naked in the middle of a street.

I have come to realise that female do not really put interest in their fellow female activities much in n the sense that things of this nature does not excites them rather they prefer to go watch the male sports with their man and secondly, the female does not really give in to sports activities as they are not really given the attention when it comes to sports development back in the days. It is of recent the world started picking interest in n female sports to making sure they gain the recognition they deserve but still then people do not see it enticing going for female games as they are not interested in it.
1039  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best Practices for Staying Safe When Gambling on: October 12, 2023, 09:40:17 PM
It is good one trains him or herself to be disciplined while gambling because it is only a disciplined gambler that can be able to exercise self restraint when it seems they are loosing it.  That is why the slogan says " gamble responsibly" this should help gamblers to maintain and curtail their gambling excesses. When it gets to budget, it is very important that such considerations should be put in place before gambling because that would guide you through to not going beyond your gambling limit per day or as the case maybe. Setting up a bad would put you in charge and not allowing you be overwhelmed by the fun derived from the casino. When you set budget for yourself this would help you to maintain a limit to which you gamble
He is training himself to be disciplined when gambling is a must for a gambler to avoid losing a lot and not run out of money. Unfortunately, many gamblers end up being provoked by their emotions and losing self-control because they can't win and experience losses, so they lose a lot of money. That's why when gambling, we must have a clear budget limit so that we don't spend the budget in just one day. The budget is usually made for several days, and for one day, we can gamble a certain number of dollars and stay within the budget limit. This is difficult to maintain because it requires self-discipline.

Even if it's going to take some extra but necessary steps to make our gambling experience worth a deserving one, then we shouldn't hesitate giving it what it demands, I've learnt that some people cannot just do something and be successful in them without the help or assistance of other people, such is life and we are to appear being our brothers keepers in times of need, gambling responsibly is not what one fan just say by mouth, we need to act upon it and see the results or outcome evident.

I am meant to understand that no man is an Ireland  and there is a saying that says " the right hand washes the left and the left does same too so both can be clean. "No tree can make up a forest."  Likewise every man  would definitely meet someone who would assist them in life in one way or the other. Standing alone is not advisable as one can never assist himself in n anything but rather would need help and support to climbing up the ladder. So I am not doubting your point here.

1. Try not to Dey Drive for night, most especially in a lonely area, as you never can know what could happen while you are driving.

Thank you for your commendation, I appreciate your kind words. I felt the need of compiling this list  so that members could read them and take the tips into account since we are in for the ember month and this ember season things happen which calls for more vigilance and alertness for one to not be taken unawares by any of such unwarranted circumstances.
