The best solution is just to ignore unknown emails coming from unknown senders or better still you delete those mails as you have nothing to do with them and block the senders from further repeating such act.
yes, ignoring it would be better, but for example if you use Gmail they usually filter out dangerous links but sometimes fraudsters can escape detection, therefore always confirm with casino service support whether the email is official or not, after all there is no harm to ask before clicking on those phishing links that ultimately harm yourself.

Sometimes people are lazy to ask before doing something when it is clear that there are many cases of phishing emails from several casinos, why should they feel confident to click on that link, when to ask it doesn't take long to go to their service support or their ANN thread on this forum if They are still actively interacting, don't make something easy difficult because you feel like you're too lazy to read and don't ask questions

Correct mate, as you have said confirmation from the casino is another good point because that would enable you be informed and aware of happenings and development so as not to be taken unawares. If you are confused of any mail sent to you, you have every right to call the casino attention to alerting them of the possibilities of the email been used to scam their clients so that they would be aware of the happenings and also alert all their registered clients to not fall for the scam mails they receive from the email. This would save people of the stress of being scammed and building trust with their casino services.

As far as I know, the name 1xbet as mentioned on OP here is a flagged one and as such should not be taken seriously. 1xbet has lots of pending accusations and cases here to settle before their exit. OP should have been able to do research here by searching for the name before making such a post to know if they once existed here and to know their history so as not to meet resistance from members when making known the name of the casino. As it is now, it would be very difficult to convince anybody here to deal with OP for the fact that 1xbet is involved, and as a matter of fact, this is OP indirectly promoting a scam and may likely get tagged by other members for coming here to promoting a casino being accused of scamming members here. It is likely that OP might belong to the 1xbet team or if I am not mistaken an alt account of a well-established member.

As for protection of personal information, you can not tell because a casino can start by telling you they are kyc free just to get traffic and members to deposit but as time goes on, they change their policy telling all members to undergo kyc which was not part of the initial. You will have no option than doing it because you have funds already there with them as that is the trick they use to get at members. One thing you should note is that once kyc is demanded, your privacy is no more guaranteed because anything can happen and they tell you they suffered hack which you can do nothing about.

The OP is referring to protecting personal information against hacker that impersonates casino representatives. This scam is popular via email notifications whenever hacker has an idea that you are playing on a specific casino while the victim post personal information such as email in public.

I received this kind of scam attempt because I accidentally use my personal email on one of the bounty campaigns here in the forum. Luckily the scammer that trying to hack use a casino that I don’t have an account which is why I easily detected it as scam.

You can easily detect such mails to be a scam or coming from a scammer when you see them in your inbox. How do you know they are scam; you did not register anything that links you to them, you have neither visited nor used their website before, you do not use that email for things of that nature, they convince you to click the link they sent to you by promising you juicy offer and enticing giveaway or bonuses that are not feasible.

These are the reasons why it is advisable to always use a separate email for all your online engagements so as not to mix things up for yourself. This would ease one the stress of trying to pick from where an email is sent from so one could be able to be careful in other not to fall victim of scams.
If you are really that bothered whenever you have recieved some emails on sites or services on which you didnt even register then better not to put yourself in stress and anxiety with those things which those are just simply scams which are trying out to phish you out or whatever scammy attempt that they would really be making.It is really just that there are people who are really that naive enough on trying out to believe and click those random links without even trying to think on how risky the thing that they had done. We know that phishing, malwares and viruses could really be that downloaded into your device which it might not really be that causing for some access on your accounts in gambling platform but also it would really be compromising your personal wallets as well.

This is why if you've been bothered with this, then you would really be finding yourself to have the solution on which it would really be that ideal that you do make a new email address when you do
tend to play on a site. Exploited emails or the ones you do input might really be leaked out somewhere and its not new. This is why you would really be getting random emails and stuffs
but its better not to mind and ignore most of the time.

Random mails  mostly come from phishing sites and as we all know, these mails are mostly sent by hackers to steal peoples information upon any attempt to click the link sent to ones mailbox. If one must play on casinos or otherwise, it is good one uses different mails for the exercise so as not to complicate things for themselves because they might forget themselves and click link thinking it is from one of the sites they had registered since it is obvious that they use one email for several sites and activities. Some times, there is data breach from most of these third party organisations  which puts data and information of clients at risk because of possible hack. In that case they get emails from that data base and start sending phishing links to the emails for  possible hack attempt.

I have had this experience whereby a particular email i used fora particular website  started receiving all sorts of spams and phishing links and it became obviously clear to me  that there have been a breach of data on that website and hackers must have done that or clients data have been old out. I sometimes blame the websites for keeping silent and not informing their clients to be aware of the data leakage or breach on their end. They just keep quiet over it and do as if they know not what has happened. If not that some people are wise to create separate mails for different activities, one can not be able to detect where the breach could have taken place.

The best solution is just to ignore unknown emails coming from unknown senders or better still you delete those mails as you have nothing to do with them and block the senders from further repeating such act.

Of a truth reputation matters when sourcing for a casino to deal with. A casino with track records should be able to have a good reputation and built trust for themselves. At least one should be able to do a research on their choice casinos before engaging with them. Doing this would give them more insights of what people are saying about that casino in particular. From trusted review sites, you can get reliable feedback of peoples remark about casinos and their activities from the past. Mostly old casinos can be trusted if they have good reviews because they have been in existence long enough compared to new casinos whilst some pay for fake reviews. So what I would likely advice any one sourcing for a casino is to check out review sites here which i believe are much reliable and trusted. Also, reviews on this platform on a casino can also guide one through choosing  casino to deal with.

As for protection of personal information, you can not tell because a casino can start by telling you they are kyc free just to get traffic and members to deposit but as time goes on, they change their policy telling all members to undergo kyc which was not part of the initial. You will have no option than doing it because you have funds already there with them as that is the trick they use to get at members. One thing you should note is that once kyc is demanded, your privacy is no more guaranteed because anything can happen and they tell you they suffered hack which you can do nothing about.
1646  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Telegram launches crypto currency wallet. on: September 17, 2023, 07:10:49 PM
I was wondering how safe it would be hence me bringing it here for discussion. So far the telegram platform is very porous and scammers carry out their nefarious act there which makes it not too conducive for most discussions and now Crypto wallet is about to take shape their with one storing or saving his or her assets there. What are the possibility that one can securely safe their assets there without having any issues of scam or hack through telegram hack?
Telegram has become a gathering place for Crypto enthusiasts. Telegram with cryptocurrency is nothing new. However, the problem is Telegram's security. Currently Telegram security is very easy to infiltrate. When Telegram creates a cryptocurrency wallet, there will certainly be lots of hacking attempts.
Or it could be by creating a fake link to the Telegram wallet. I have tried downloading the TON app but I am still not comfortable with the UI of the app.
I chose not to invest in TON but will still put it on my watchlist.
Telegram security is another focus point of discussion. I was thinking if the telegram team could give this security aspect of their app the attention it requires because the rate at which scams,hack and other acts are carried out on the telegram platform is something else.
The news of telegram wallets would trigger more acts from hackers and that would call for more work on the telegram application itself to strengthen the security features so as to prevent hackers gaining access to owners wallet.

If this is not properly taken care of and the hacks becomes obvious I doubt if people would keep the telegram wallet or think of storing their assets on the telegram wallet as everybody considers the safety of their wallet as a priority.
1647  Economy / Services / Re: Telegram Stickers - Giffs Service on: September 16, 2023, 02:58:51 PM
Why creating a new thread when you already have an announcement thread for your services. Irrespective of the year it was created and how old the thread could be,you could have updated it with this new service of yours or better still you bump it up rather than creating multiple announcement thread for same purpose you could be tagged a scammer or spammer for doing this and nobody would look your services already I noticed from the old announcement thread you made available some newbie account vouching for your services which I think is a no no sign here. That alone shows how desperate you are and could scare away prospective clients from patronising your services.

Lastly, your stickers are way too much expensive than one could imagine. Do you not use escrow services for your business? As I think that is the only means I believe members here would want to deal for their own safety. Maybe you should have a look into it and put it into consideration.
1648  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Another day to take caution of sim swap attack on: September 15, 2023, 10:50:57 PM
I am still wondering this whole scenario of a thing. If a computer guru, the founder of ethereum blockchain could have his phone simcard swap and got his account hacked I was also wondering how the novice that knows nothing about tech could be going through without their knowledge of being hacked.
You don't need to wonder how it happened because sim swap is not new and the hacker had help from someone in the telecommunication company. As a tech expert and with the incessant cases of sim swap on the rise, I expected him to fortify his account with another layer of security. If he had added 2FA to his Twitter account, it would have made it impossible for the hacker to hijack the account and send the phishing link. Sadly, persons who fell for the click bait have to learn the hard way and newbies can also learn from this.


It all points towards my curiosity and making it pertinent that one must be careful and be able to protect their details safely so as to avoid hack or if per adventure any attempt is made, there would be a prompt from the end of the account owner but what baffles me on is that the victim is a computer guru himself and a founder of the Second largest blockchain itself. He is the list person I would hear about suffering hack from scammers when in the reality he himself knows more about the industry and how it works.
1649  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin related words in simple terms on: September 15, 2023, 10:17:22 PM
I think OP did well to have come up with this. This shows that OP is really focused on learning more about Bitcoin and having the right knowledge of what he in or she is going into.  These are the signs that shows how beginners are eagerly ready to learn new things when ever they encounter such. Although there are threads that possibly have this content which OP did not really do search for here but I believe OP was doing as a newbie and for other newbies to see as well because the time and commitment OP must have devoted in doing this is not what to he waits when there are similar posts of this nature on this platform. Well what OP did is one of the attributes of newbies so I would commend OP for giving it a try putting the this thread up.
I think if there is will power to learn then results will definitely come out but if you are reluctant and always feeling like there is a short cut to everything you do in life then you would probably not excel even when it comes to the forum. For OP to what compiled such then he must be really aspiring learn.

This thread is actually very useful because most person here and not only newbie don't actually know the full details of some of the words given .


Making out time alone to do research and making this thread alone is enough to tell us the truth that OP is really trying his or her best to present something meaningful to the community to see because not every newbie would have  that time to want to engage themselves with such a task as this nature. OP has done well and should be applauded for this gesture of putting up with this task.
1650  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: Ignorance causes unlawful act on: September 15, 2023, 10:05:44 PM
OP indeed you have just revealed some big secrets here and I wish our local board members would see, read and take this serious. So far you have listed some key points that really affects newbies here and as a matter of fact, these points you have listed are what is standing as a big challenge to members of our local board because they have no knowledge about them.

The key major challenges faced by newbies are plagiarism and exchange of gas between wallets which is a major error and should not be in the first place. Newbies are not the only ones facing this but old members here as well because they fail to understand the fact that could nail them if it is being discovered that there are linking wallets from different accounts. It is obvious that people still do not understand that copying online without reference is more amount to plagiarism and that is intellectual theft crime committed so it is obvious when caught, the culprit would face sanctions. So you can see ignorance is not an excuse in the eyes of the law. Who ever keeps lose

Introverts are very special on their own way. I have not really seen any where were introverts are lousy but rather they have their own unique attributes and futures. They are so intelligent and smart. I have done lots of research and I found out that majority of the world richest men are all introverts. They are someworth reserved and self reliable to comprehend situations and turning it into something meaningful. They are business tycoon in their various fields. Being an introvert has nothing to do with success barrier or whatever you can use to qualify it.

OP, you got a good wife in the making, I hope someday you will make known her presence here for us to welcome her cheerfully. Congratulations on your gifts.

1654  Economy / Gambling / Re: Richy.casino - iGaming & Sports Betting. 💰up to $20k deposit bonus, free spins on: September 15, 2023, 07:01:29 PM


Next time, you'll read the full topic, friend. When this casino comes to casino.guru I'll be one of the first who will rate 1 star to them.

I mean, NOONE withdrew money there for weeks. NOONE. Because of this email scam. Moderators should take a look at this casino and close the topic.

And verification - it made me laugh. There were users that said - if they scamming you, then create a scam accusation. This casino doesn't have many to pay off winnings. If you win there 50k they block you immediately.

Good catch I even praise this casino as having a license from my country but unfortunately they did not live up to expectations, OP should address concern here before launching a marketing campaign, their domain is all about luck but unfortunately they are facing tough luck now users complaining of bugs, all that they spent will go to waste if they cannot fix and resolve all these issues.

The issues of bug fixing is now a rampant issue now with casinos. I just believe most casinos uses it as an excuse to do away with some critical mistakes attached with their various casinos. This is the reason why it is advisable to do a review on your website if you are not sure of your developers so that the community can be of help to you in terms of discovery and recommendations for possible solutions.  As you have said advising OP to look into their casino is the best option they can take for the moment otherwise all their efforts would be in vain coupled with the resources spent in building the casino to finishing touch.
1655  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will there be a boom again? on: September 15, 2023, 06:26:27 PM
In response to your topic matter OP. I can boldly say this that Bitcoin will outperform it's current market situations to a greater expectations as it was before now. If you may wish to know this, Bitcoin is still at its early stages and this alone is the reason why the boom is still expectant.
Moreover, it is known that after halving, there is always price surge in Bitcoin and in less than some months from now Bitcoin halving would take place. So if you can, now is the right time to hop in and make your purchase but note that the market is volatile and you should do investment with what you can afford to loss. Do well to store your assets in a self custodial wallet if you decide to purchase your Bitcoin so you do not wake up to stories someday as it relates to third parties.
1656  Economy / Gambling / Re: Why the profit share on Rollbit for Sports Rollbots decreased so dramatically? on: September 15, 2023, 05:32:10 PM
Possibly there might have been a decrease or decline in profit sharing based on their terms of agreement but any ways that is non of our business here as it solely concerns the rollbit board of directors and co. This should not have warranted a new thread as the subject matter does not in any ways concerns the public or if it does would it not have been better you nourish your curiosity on their announcement thread so that their representative would attend to your inquest with immediate effect.

If I may ask, are you a share holder, investor or what?  Because these questions are basically asked by them to inquiring to know what must have warranted such a decision but however, it would make no meaning asking because as a shareholder or investor, you already know what really is going on and the resolution behind such decision.
1657  Economy / Gambling / Re: Rollbit withdrawal pending for over 16 hours on: September 15, 2023, 05:19:36 PM
OP I will advise you give rollbit casino a little time to process your verification and payment. They are a well known casino here and have existed for a long period of time. It would please you to know that rollbit casino is currently running a campaign and tell me when they are doing such do you think they would want to tarnish their reputation that they have spent years in building?
As a matter of fact, they have given you a reply.  So I will just tell you to wait for their reply as per your KYC documents to be verified and appropriate actions taken with respect to the results of the KYC. You should know that sometimes KYC takes much longer to be verified and most times when it involves a third party verification company they partner with to verify clients identity, this takes much time to get response as there are other KYC documents before you to be verified. So it would advise you give them a little time more.
1658  Economy / Gambling / Re: ⚡⚡Knight.bet no.1 Online Casino!⚡⚡ on: September 15, 2023, 05:03:47 PM
OP cannot fool people here claiming to be a number-one online casino, after posting two posts about their casino he went offline, he is not responsive launching an announcement here is not you post they will come and play kind of thing, you have to prove that your announcement is good and your claim and terms are facts and acceptable.

If OP did research on how to promote his platform he would not receive criticism and bad feedback, if he goes online he should check all the comments and address all that needs to be addressed.

Well, everyone think that his casino (or any product / business) is the best one. However the main target for the casino should be that gamblers says that this casino is the number 1.  Also, a new casino cannot take the number one spot, in terms of popularity and revenue as there are other casino which are running for years and have gained a lot of trust among the gamblers.

Anyways. new casino still have chance to grow, provided the owners keep on working on their casino with dedication and try to give as much facilities to the gamblers.

Of a truth every casino would claim to be unique in one way or the other and OP was not wrong in saying that but where OP got it wrong is that the casino he or she claimed to be the best does not equate what they claim it to be. I can say that if a review should be done on that casino, it would be obvious that the casino is near nothing important and would definitely not see the light of the day as no gambler would bother themselves going for it.

In as much as it is a new casino and just as you have said here, there is still room for growth and development only if OP acknowledges the review of members here are act swiftly to effect the changes or corrections outlined.

I believe OP is a kind of engaged. Maybe when OP is back online, OP would respond to questions.
1659  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Was it my fault or not? on: September 15, 2023, 04:50:18 PM
I have to say this, OP is a good storyteller. Maybe OP should specialise in writing fiction. I think that would suit OP perfectly well. I was wondering how on earth it is possible to send Bitcoin to usdt wallet address here. Indeed a fictitious story. On a normal when you insert a wrong wallet address on the wrong chain wallet there is always a caution sign to alert you that it is a wrong address not to talk of when the wallet address is not complete. I think OP is just a kind of teasing us here with this type of joke.

Although I still see this as a joke because in the real sense we all know how things works on the Crypto space.
1660  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Another day to take caution of sim swap attack on: September 15, 2023, 04:20:30 PM
I am still wondering this whole scenario of a thing. If a computer guru, the founder of ethereum blockchain could have his phone simcard swap and got his account hacked I was also wondering how the novice that knows nothing about tech could be going through without their knowledge of being hacked.

This is the more reasons one needs to act and play safe with their devices and gadgets. Nobody can tell who the target could be. Avoid clicking on links you know nothing about. If you are not expecting a mail from anybody and you receive unsolicited messages do well to press the delete button with immediate effect to be on the safe side.

Lastly, take Cognizance of your call log and activities. Never give your phone to strangers for a minute call or whatsoever otherwise you will have yourself to blame when the repercussion comes knocking at the door.
