So, here's the deal. I've been into crypto gambling, and I've realized that, despite my best intentions, it's a bit tough to control the urge. I've tried the self-exclusion route in the past, but it seems some crypto casinos still find a way to let me back in.

I know I've got an issue, and I've accepted that. Now, my goal is to manage it better and avoid any unnecessary damage to my finances.

I'm curious if any of you have faced a similar situation and if there are tools or methods you've found effective in controlling crypto gambling. It feels like most platforms lack daily limits or deposit controls, making it a bit challenging to stay on track.

Would really appreciate any advice or recommendations from those who've been through something similar.

It has everything to do with Cloudbet

-The email was only used for the purpose of using Cloudbet
-The account has been created a few months ago


Cloudbet has already been hacked in the past but I was not a user then.


Upon reading the progression of this thread, it appears that you may have misunderstood the message you received. It has nothing to do with Cloudbet being hacked; it's just that they are reiterating that your password may have been compromised. But even still, if I haven't confirmed the source of the message, I wouldn't click any link and would move forward with just checking the website myself.

With the amount of hacks going around, it's great that these casinos have the time to do a SMS or email blast. They're just looking out for your safety, after all.

You only receive it if your password is saved in iphone password manager. Only then can they detect the data leak credentials. There was no email received it was Iphone built-in feature monitoring data leaks.



I use Cloudbet maybe once or twice a month, but I haven't received any email about Cloudbet leaking their entire account data. The blog post about the casino's security was the only recent stuff they released and Fatunad already provided links about it.

Maybe the leak is from another source because if it was from them, we should've received it as well, similar to how Stake leaked the account emails of their players several months ago, and other users would've raised the same issue starting last week.

I also conducted some research and discovered that Cloudbet experienced a hack back in 2013 or around that time. However, it's worth mentioning that I wasn't a user of their platform at that point in time. Given this historical incident, it does seem somewhat peculiar that they would make public statements regarding the stake.com hack while potentially having their own data leak issues concealed.

Did make some search but i didnt find out any information about hacking incident or leaked information or exploits on Cloudbet but it not shocking if ever there are alerts that you have
received on an email which you do only solely use for such platform which it would really be giving out that kind of impression that there might be some leak or exploit happening.
What actually those alerts that you are pertaining? Accessed on a new device? Trying to log in or making some withdrawal request on? Since you havent been able to specify.

Knowing cloudbet do even make out some comments or insights about security.

In Wake of Stake.com Hack, Cloudbet Reiterates Importance of Security Across Industry

So for sure they had been putting up some emphasis or relevance in speaking about security which its unlikely that they wont be able to see if ever
there's some breach.

About a week ago, I received an alert on my iPhone indicating a potential data leak involving Cloudbet casino account credentials. The concerning part is that the email account linked to my Cloudbet registration was exclusively created for this purpose, so there's no chance of it being compromised elsewhere. While it's possible this might be a false positive, I'm taking this matter seriously.

Has anyone else experienced a similar alert or issue with Cloudbet's security? I want to ensure the safety of my data, especially since Cloudbet holds a Curacao gambling license, which doesn't inspire the highest confidence in terms of player protection. If indeed there has been a breach, does anyone know if there's a legal recourse against Cloudbet for this situation?

From what I've read online, it seems that the Curacao gambling license they hold doesn't necessarily translate to robust player protection or responsive support. Frankly, had I been aware of the issues surrounding Curacao licenses and the potential for crime to thrive on their platforms, I would have never used this service.

Your insights are greatly appreciated.
