Dont be dumb gamblers

[davis196]

My friend recently get scammed by a gambling site which he found by continuously browsing. On internet. Sorry but even he cant remember the name so i cant tell you but here's what you wouldnt do. He said he was searching about how cryptocurrency gambling work. He is much aware about bitcoin but not about using it for gambling. He find some "yellow botton" he said which offers gambling for newbies and the rest is history. Goodbye $200 . yes thats kinda bit small but should you wait that it happened to you with a bigger amount? Here's what you would do.
1. Dont click and browse non recognized site to avoid phishing.
2.. Always ask first the people on this forum whether the site is legit or not.
3. Dont put too much money on that site so if ever its really a scam, the amount it can get is minimal.
4. If it looks really legit, try some few games with few bets at first.

Being cautious costs less than not being aware at all. Dont let our greediness and dumbness takes over our financial life. Be safe people.

"Yellow button"?What yellow button?He must have been searching for some magic button that will offer him endless gambling profits for a single mouseclick.Cryptocurrency gambling isn't rocket science,you must be a total retard to not know how I crypto casino works.Due dilligence about casinos(reviews,complains,scam allerts)is always important before we spend our money to gamble.

Every gambler should be cautious and play only on websites that are known and there are written reviews here in bitcointalk with user experience from other gamblers. Otherwise, it is very risky to gamble your money there.

Seriously? he forgot the site that scammed him? As you've mentioned, he is much aware of btc but doesn't aware of scam? I, myself discover freebitcoin first and then later on primedice before getting into the forum. I was in ptc before, so before putting effort in a site, i'm searching about the site if it's scam site or not.

How can your friend not remember the sites name?, he can always check it by going in the history tab of his device and find the sites name. Why have you have skipped the information about how did he loose those $200, did he loose it on a bet or he won and the site refused to pay him?. I feel you should invite your friend to the forum, so he can pick a reputable casino for himself which won’t scam him.

Scam sites are scattered everywhere here in the world of internet and just like what the OP has mentioned avoid to click some random links that looks suspicious and unfamiliar. Think before you click, and remember that just use a small amount of fund for your first try to avoid losing a losing all of your money. Besides, you can ask for some tips here in the forum on where to play or maybe you could look here in this forum because actually there's quite a lot of casino in here, for example, Vegascasino where I used to play, don't worry it is a reliable one. In fact, it has live dealers so you can sure that there will be no anomaly in here and just like most of the players want which is bonuses is quite a lot.

After i post this topic i ask my friend if he could check his browser history. He then tell me that he was browsing illegally in his office, Its still office hours and its prohibited thats why he uses the incognito tab. He then said he remembered one word which is dice and the color of the button is yellow. Im sorry i cant tell the site but neither i didnt know. Im just telling this to be a lesson so that future first time gamblers wont do the mistake again.

Luckily it's really easy to avoid getting scammed, usually you can just spot the scammy websites from a mile away.
If a gambling website offers instant withdraws and you actually have proof that it's a trusted website, then you can be pretty sure you won't get scammed.

That's why I typically only play on casinos that will automatically send any withdraws to my wallet.

Oh, so this is why he forgot the site's name. Well, it's really his fault to begin with. Maybe he should just focused on doing his job so that this didn't have to happen. And for me, $200 is a large amount of money already. It's greater than the minimum wage here in our country. I don't think I can handle such loss especially that I don't earn big. Anyway, talking to him about what he should do next time he tries gambling online will be a good first move. But I bet you've already done that and I hope he learned his lesson. As for us, we will be more precautious as well.

Lol, the moral of the story is "Don't gamble while working" . He can't concentrate on the things that he want to do as it is not his property. If you gamble you've got to focus and not just click anything and better to do it at home where you have peace of mind (away from stress of work).

Not really sure what the Yellow button is but I can't figure out how your friend forgot where he deposited the bitcoins. Even in incognito mode didn't he have to register on the site and verify his email address or something? You usually receive a link to your email that you have to click on to verify your account or a welcome message of some sort.

Being scammed after you invest your efforts and money really is a pain. I agree that we should be suspicious and more wise when it comes to choosing the right cryptocasino you can invest to. And I also like the fact that you should invest a little first instead of putting a large amount before playing. Good thing the crypto casino my friend recommended me is a legit one. Of course, even if it was recommended by a friend, I still did my homework and research about in especially on forums like this. It was such a big help. And when I finally decided to try, I only deposited the minimum amount needed in order to play. I was so glad that everything turned out right even after playing more games from their 300 different games. Just as what mentioned above, this gaming site offers live casino. I especially love this feature of them because there's a real dealer for a fair game and real players and not just programmed.

This is being scammed because of being naive and not thinking before acting.If your friend is scammed from a crypto casino is only his fault, we all know that crypto transactions are irreversible and can scam easier than Fiat casino can.

He should have asked for reviews if he didn't know this forum and if he did know this forum is only his fault twice.

[leowonderful]

If anything, your friend should learn from this mistake to look for reviews from members of this forum about crypto casinos before depositing money on any of ‘em. It definitely sucks that he lost money, but everybody occasionally makes mistakes. The important thing is you learn from them so you don’t make the same mistake again.

Negative trust on an account representing a casino on this forum is usually a good sign that the casino in question is not legit. Your friend should also be reading the most recent few posts on any threads relating to the casino to determine if it’s legit or not.

Before making any move in regards to depositing your money, best to review first as there's a lots of phishing site who do promises that can hook you up, no one can be blamed about what happened but it's always the users obligation to do deep research before you sending money.

Then tell that to your noob friend lol

Imagine he browse for a random gambling sites and Bet for 200$?sorry but this looks like being stupid

Look how many legit gambling sites that exist in cryptocurrency and you just only need tp look in every signature here to find good gambling platform's so why in the wod need to risk with that site

[okala]

Your friend made a very big mistake how can you trust a random gambling site's which you found on the internet, most of the gambling site's that offer online casino with bitcoin have an official thread on bitcointalk and before you play games on the site always read users feedbacks and reviews on the thread from there you can figure out if it legit or scam. He just have to say goodbye to the $200 deposit he lost.

[Cacingkemi]

Why not remember the site? Ask your friends again there must be in browsing history and its useful for us, that we do not want to deal with scammed and they must be fought. Don't look for sites that have no reputation, search in the gambling section there are many popular sites and officially not scam.

[bonker]

We can find the scam gambling sites even by entering into their sites,they will have shit user interface and also fake chat rooms the comments will get repeated mostly so anyone who don't even see this on a site deserved to be scammed.

I agree with all the said points but the quoted one. Most of the so-called trusted gambling sites will operate normally when you play small amounts and win small. The problem starts once you start depositing huge bankrolls or request a withdrawal of a high volume win. That is when they start introducing KYC and other security checks on your accounts. Most of the time it is to scam the money from you. Due to this, play on gambling sites which are known for instant deposit and withdrawals for a very long time.

New gambling sites are always risky. I always play majority of gambling games on trusted gambling sites. Even sometime i need to play on new gambling site, i spend only limited funds there. This way even if the new gambling site try to scam, i will not lose much of my funds.
