[SCAM] mBit Casino ***DO NOT PLAY***

TLDR: mBit casino stealing player funds by refusing to pay out winners even after verifying account, accepting deposits, and verifying all play activity.

Amount Scammed: 63.9 BTC

Scammer names and emails:
Philip Aaker - admin@mbitcasino.com
Linda Murphy - linda@mbitcasino.com
Peter Hallaway - vip@mbitcasino.com
Manan - support@mbitcasino.com

Scam companies:
mBit Casino
Direx N.V.
Direx Ltd.

Record of Events:

On July 28, 2017, an mBit VIP hostess encouraged me to sign up to play on
mBit. I signed up and started playing blackjack and slot machines.

On September 1, 2017, after I had won a certain amount, a full review of my account was
requested to fulfill KYC requirements and identification check.

On September 2, 2017, I provided all the necessary documents.

On September 3, 2017, everything was verified and approved. My account was cleared for
continued play and withdrawals.

On September 8, 2017, mBit notified me that I could withdraw 10 BTC per month. I was able to
continue withdrawing up to 10 BTC for September. mBit notified me that the next 10 BTC could
be withdrawn starting on October 1, 2017.

On October 3, 2017, my withdrawal request was denied.

Current Status:

And now, 10 months later, mBit has still refused to process any withdrawals. Instead, they have been trying to deceive, silence, and intimidate me.

mBit’s VIP team, led by Peter Hallaway, used numerous irrelevant claims as excuses for not processing the withdrawals. mBit blamed server issues, hacking, account verification, terms of service violations and third party providers. After further investigation, none of these issues were valid or relevant to my account, yet mBit still refused to process my withdrawals. Peter Hallaway, a VIP Hostess, and Manon asked me to sign an inappropriate legal document as a means to silence me. My comments and questions on the agreement were requested by mBit but then promptly ignored. In addition, Philip Aaker demanded that I sign a statement which would be untrue.

In summary, mBit has stolen 63.9 BTC from me. I have been defrauded of my winnings by mBit Casino, its parent companies Direx N.V. and Direx Ltd., and its employees Philip Aaker, Peter Hallaway and a VIP Hostess.

DO NOT PLAY on mBit. They will gladly allow you to play when you are losing, but once you win big they will not pay you.

First of all please move to Scam accusations board to get attention and it is the correct board. Secondly I suggest adding chat/mail screenshots and your withdrawal dashboard screenshot otherwise the whole accusation is invalid since there is no concrete proof of this.

Do you have a copy of that legal document they asked you to sign? They have an account here but are inactive: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=262691

Please post as much evidence as you have.

As rightly said by other established members of the forum, you should come up with more and more proof. Screen shots, mail communications, and other type of call recordings will be very helpful for you to build your case against mbit here.

this belongs to the scam accusations section and you need to provide more info like screenshots for your balance , chat history and some txs for your deposits and withdrawals
as Stunna said mbit rep isn't active here in the forums but they are still considered a trusted site , so some proofs can help get them tagged and it may help you getting your money back as well

Probably he create a thread here because his first thread on the scam accusation board that he made almost two months ago gives him no effects on his issue. Indeed, he is not providing valid proofs here so I wouldn't be surprised if there will be no solutions/suggestions by others.
63+ btc is so big amount, so if it is true then it should be a big warning for bitcoin gambling lovers. But I wonder why he needs to wait for more than 10 months before he start to complain it in this forum?

I have linked screenshots of my account balance and transactions. The top right shows the current balance of 58.9 BTC but it does not include the current pending withdrawal of 5 BTC which was never processed. This can be seen as still pending in the second screenshot. My total balance is 63.9 BTC.

They refused to process my withdrawals and wouldn’t tell me why. After numerous follows up from me, they said they would only tell me why if I signed this document. I have linked the legal document. The legal document effectively silences me without guaranteeing my withdrawal of my bitcoins. I initially responded to them with a modified version that my lawyer drafted up, but they refused to even read it and demanded to know what my issue was with their original document. Below is my response, which lists the numerous issues. They never responded to my concerns, so we never ended up signing a document.

Quote
As a general matter, I found the document you provided concerning as it seeks to restrict much more than what you have conveyed to me in your emails.  I am hopeful that this is just a drafting point, but your unwillingness to engage on my proposed changes to this point has given me further reason for concern.
 
1.       The definition of “Confidential Information” in the first whereas clause is overly broad.  This needs to be restricted to only information that is provided to me following the date when I sign this agreement.  Hence I have moved the definition into the new paragraph 1 and made that clarification.
2.       The “Purpose” described in the old paragraph 1 is incorrect.  The purpose of this agreement is to restrict my use of certain Confidential Information you provide  to me.  Accordingly, I have deleted this section.
3.   I have added 4 carve outs to Confidential Information for information:
            a.      already in my possession;
            b.      that is publicly available;
            c.       that becomes available to me from a source other than mBit; or
            d.      that I develop myself without any information that you provide.
     In addition to being standard in legal documents of this type, logic dictates that I cannot be bound by confidentiality obligations to you with respect to information of this type.
4.       I have deleted certain text at the end of the new paragraph 1 as it is redundant to the definition of Confidential Information.  We need to have a clear definition of Confidential Information (which is provided earlier in the paragraph) so we all understand what this agreement covers.  The sentence now properly conveys how you may communicate Confidential Information to me.
5.       I have added a statement making clear that the existence of my winnings and your failure to pay them are not considered Confidential Information.  Any inference to the contrary again makes me question whether you are acting in good faith, as you would therefore be asking me to sign a document that says I legally can’t disclosure that you have failed to pay me.  This is clearly unacceptable as it would limit my recourse for your failure to live up to your obligations.  I would, however, be willing to sign an agreement not to disclose my winnings after such time as I have been paid in full if this is helpful to you.
6.       The change to 1.1 is necessary given the deletion of “Purpose” discussed above.  This now refers to how the Confidential Information will be used.
7.       The change to 1.2 is necessary because, as an individual, I have no employees, but may be required to hire advisors or counsel if this dispute is not amicably resolved, and cannot be restricted from sharing any information with such parties.
8.       As is standard for agreements of this type, I have added a term as, after a certain time period, the information disclosed becomes stale and confidential treatment is no longer appropriate.  This is typically 1-2 years following disclosure, so, in an effort to come to agreement quickly, I have proposed the far end of this range (2 years).
9.       The changes in the “Breach of contract” section include grammatical cleanups so that the sentence is proper English.
10.    It is inappropriate that mBit can choose any court to enforce the agreement in.  If you have a preferred court, please specify it now and I will let you know if I agree.  But I am not agreeing to any court without limit.
