Dont be dumb gamblers

[Moiyah]

I appreciate that you have given us such warnings. $200 is not too small especially for those who are working so hard just to get that amount. Well, we just can't trust any gambling sites particularly with those websites that just got on the internet. Also, it is my natural move to withdraw my profits right away and wouldn't let my fund and capital to just leave it in a gambling site.

The fault was totally belongs to your friend why playing at the casinos which don't have reputation and when decide to play at the particular casinos it should not be done with rush because research is necessary to ensure playing at legit casinos and don't ever tempting for big bonus if the casinos which offering those bonus brand newbie of have no reputation because possibly they will attempts to scamming people

I beg to disagree because one can have its own decision and should never blame anybody on your decision. It is you or one who made the decision even if a friend influence but it is you will going to make the final.decision.

Before I do blame other for the decision in which being influence with friends but I realize that it is not them that has the problem and instead it is the one who made the final decision (Yourself).

Did he put 200 dollars in a site he doesn't even know the name? Or his computer was invaded? Crypto space is too dangerous, especially if you are randomly searching for crypto sites on google, there is all the kinds of scams there.
Besides checking a site reputation on this forum, check for feedbacks in other places too, also there are many monitoring sites to check other sites legitimacy.

Probably his friends mind is invaded by greed.  Scam sites often times offer a too good to be true deal.  Like depositing x amount of money then giving it a bonus of y times the amount and just need a few times roll and he can withdraw his money including the bonus.  Review does not work that much since mostly scam sites are prefer for this.  They will get their accomplice to put a deceiving perfect review on their website and praise that scam gambling site.

I agree to check the review on other platform not just that websites platform because it will be full of censorship for sure.

Thats  always the problem, but they would never admit to this. Once it happens they start finding ways to twist the story around. Most gamblers are always intrigued when they see that a site can offer very huge bonuses, they do not care to know if the site is scam or not. Sometimes they are just cool with the reviews they would have probably read on the site without even having a second thought that there is possibility of the site paying people to drop reviews on their site.

I am in support of checking reviews on every available sites to know more of the site but more preferably it is always better to play on well known and old casino sites.

Well that is pretty dumb but usually it's a common mistake made by curious newbies. Though i'm pretty sure that at this day and age, where scams, frauds and hackings are quite common, a person would be extra wary in depositing even a small amount in a site he just found out. If he really intended to gamble with crypto, first thing he should've done would be to ask around for reliable sites. With the number of threads and discussions all over the internet, it's not going to be hard to get information.

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.

I'm actually new into online gambling, I always remind myself in every actions that I make especially when it comes into a place to play because I don't want to experience losing money again just because of those scam sites. I definitely agree with you since sometimes we need some guidance luckily, there are different information that can help us here. Well one of my friend suggested that bitcoin casino, since i'm not familiar with it I decided to look and research about it. Its great because it offers different gaming games like poker, slots, blackjack and roulette, aside from that they will never fail your expectation with free bonuses. It is actually one of the criteria that i'm looking for and i'm glad because I was able to find the bitcoin casino for me. Some of you may think that it was easy though it is definitely not especially for us who is new in this kind of thing. As new in online gambling, I always make some time and effort to learn some different things and strategies.

If you really don't want to experienced to lose a lot of money you should be really avoid clicking on unusual sites, especially for those fake advertisement that you always seeing at the internet because they may hack you and steal all of your funds in your wallet, that is why i always read reviews on gambling sites that first saw for me to know if the gambling site is legitimate or can be trusted. Anyways, Vegascasino.io is really a legitimate site and trustworthy site because it has great features, so that every users will be convenient in using their site like fast payouts, user-friendly, outstanding bonuses, hundreds of casino games, great supports, and it has a live casino that will give great gambling experience.

I dont understand how he forgot the name of the website, where he put his money. Im sorry but I have to say he is too dumb in terms of investment, and he wants to gamble? Thats a complete disaster. He'll end up on the streets if he keep on doing that. Anyway, there are a lot of trusted gambling website, why would someone choose to put their money in a newly created website? I feel sorry for him btw.

Like his friend has said, maybe he is too rich that losing money is notting . Imagine op saying $200 "is a bit small" that means to them remembering of the website or the gambling site is notting.  If someone scam you and you what to open a thread like this it good you asked your friend to Check his broswer history as he can get everything there.

It’s not about been so rich but about a guy that has a nonchalant attitude and that’s the worst kind of attitude for gambling. How can a man lose $200 no matter how rich he is and cannot remember the name of the site, at least if the money is small to him, the information would be important to safe other players. Taking such information spuriously is a high level of carelessness and this is what makes people.

There are so many reputable sites here on BF and anyone familiar with this forum is not expected to make such mistake because information’s regarding gambling are always here and I don’t see any reason why we have to carry out a research on Google before playing a game.

[BlueStackz]

I don't think that kind of things can happen to any of us because we do not search the internet or Google for Bitcoin-related questions instead this forum is the resource dump for all the crypto related questions. You can easily find a lot of gambling site and about the reviews and many more things so you can get a solid understanding of the casino before even entering the site.

It can actually still happen to some people especially those who are new to BF, either as a member of BF or non-member. I understand that all information’s regarding Gambling is here on the forum but there are times we want to make more research and in the process one can fall into scam sites. There are just times we need something new and different from the regular, so we do more research and one can only hope not to make mistake in choosing a site during that period.

For me, I don’t think I can ever make that type of mistake, not when I am aware of all the crypto sites here and I can ask questions and see reviews on each of the site.

[bitgolden]

I refuse to play on many new gambling site because of afraid from being scammed, so I just want to play on the trusted site for years now which gives me more confident to play. Gamblers should not think for any rewards at first, you need to know the gambling site if its legit or not. Don't ever forget where is your money, you have to monitor it.

None of these crypto gambling sites are entirely safe.  If you want safe gambling go to a regular casino in real life that has many laws that they have to follow.  There is just too much risk to gamble with crypto online.

I don’t understand crypto casino sites anymore, its either they are requesting for KYC or some or just some other things that makes one want to doubt its security. But that does not mean there are still no very good gambling sites. As a matter of fact, I know a lot of them on this Bitcoin forum, the best thing is just to do a proper study and read review on each of them before gambling.

For me, online gambling might not be entirely safe but it is still better than real life gambling. Nothing compared too staying at the comfort of your home to play games, no stress, no hassle. And in offline casino, one can win and be scared of going home for the fear of being robbed.

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.

I don't know who your friend is but whoever he is, he must be very dumb. How can you be clicking on something you know nothing about? this is no longer a new thing. There are scammer a every where and they are the same in the cryptocurrency community, there are lots of scammer here and there and any simple mistake you make means that your money is gone once and for all and you won't be able to recover it, cause there is nothing like reversing a money that has been sent through crypto. There are lots of legit sites that he can gamble on, he should have asked the forum if he doesn't know which one to choose.

Actually that’s what I am thinking also,with hundreds of gambling sites in this forum (or maybe thousand) he’s friend gamble and risk to that scam site?sounds more stupid mate

And you’re also correct on what you’ve said about researching first before betting and risk your precious money and time also

[coin-investor]

Only newbies and their greediness falls to this kind of scam, if the gambling site is very popular, they will never risk their reputation by scamming people, only new gambling sites do such thing, they want fast money and they are doing this in the expense of newbies who for some unknown reasons are not asking old members if the site is legit or not searching is there is a scam report on that site.

[Micerker]

Why does he not find instructions from you? This can help us not lose $ 200. There are many casino platforms on the internet and run on the Cryptocurrency platform. The Stake is one of the platforms that accept many different popular Altcoin, and this is also the Casino platform with 10+ different games that help people have the best experience.

[shoreno]

Only newbies and their greediness falls to this kind of scam,

not just newbies but also veteran and pro users do also fall for this kind of scheme's and greed or the eagerness to earn is what drive's them to do those things .

if the gambling site is very popular, they will never risk their reputation by scamming people, only new gambling sites do such thing,

alot of reputable gambling sites and other kind of websites that are reputable and have been running for a long time but they still do scams  . they are willing to risk everything including thier reputation just to earn a good quick profits  .

dumb gambler or not , we are still facing a risk everytime we gamble and its literally called a gamble , once we put our funds online .

It is strange that your friend has lost in scam gambling site and he forget the name of it. How could it possible?
And also it is more strange thing that your friend deposit $200 without any thinks that it is trust-able site or not, so it is clearly your friend mistake that he did it.
Otherwise you could see a lot of gambling sites are working in this forum, and all are trust-able. So now you have come in this forum, so tell your friend if he wanna play again then come in the forum and join these gambling sites.

That’s mostly the problems; most people will just hurry to play on sites that offer huge bonuses without proper investigation. I have made these mistakes in my early years of gambling and I have really learnt from my mistakes. Its not worth it to lose money out of impatience. $200 might be small to his friend but there are a lot of people who work so hard to get this money.

Personally I don’t gamble in an unknown site, I do my proper research before gambling and from study it seems like most known sites are always more reputable and trustworthy. My first scam experience with a gambling site was a new site, I crashed after sometime and my friends told me that it is very common with new gambling sites.

We can’t assume is  greed. Not everyone is greedy to lose money in gambling; at times it could be a mistake. It’s possible that his friend didn’t even take note of the site his opening or he just clicked on a site mistakenly. There are so many scam sites out there and I have been a victim, so I can tell that not all loses are due to greed, although I know perfectly that greed is a problem that causes most losses in gambling.

My suggestion is for everyone to always go through reviews before gambling on a site, don’t be too convinced that a site is genuine because of the bonus offers or whatsoever they have to offer. It is also important to be careful while browsing through the internet, to avoid clicking on wrong sites.

Normally people take time to understand the difference between a good and a bad casino. One should be responsible for one’s own acts and should never point at others for their losses because when you are in the gambling arena, it is assumed that you are very wise. And a wise man will find the best gambling site. There are so many over the internet and you can know about them if you try to give it a search. Try not to be part of the sites that has a KYC.

I doubt that his friend wont tend to play gambling anymore unless if he do still have some money to spare with gambling then he might consider to play once again.This forum itself is a good place on looking up for good casinos/gambling sites but still be careful with unknown or new ones.You would still able to see since most members here do give out feedback specially on new ones and thats already a good reference for you as a new gambler or user.

[gabbie2010]

Googling isn't even a good way to source for trusted sites. He should have at least gone through the site review on reputable review sites..
Bitcointalk would have been best for him but not everyone knows about the forum

The best way to get a trusted gambling site to me is through this forum.  We are seeing many comments and review about any online gambling here than any reviews sites online.  I will encourage us to always see what people are saying here about a particular sites a review also.

Forum is a legitimate way to get the sites reviews and advices as well which will help in Knowing the  difference between the trusted and non trusted sites and also helps in staying away from scam and other issues which Can impact you

A couple numbers of gambling sites had been listed in a thread in this forum, a visit to that thread would  have aborted or prevented his loss.
A lots of reviews and comment had been made by regular gamblers here,  however this is wake up call to newbies to watch out and avoid being scam by so-called gambling sites who defraud unsuspecting newbies with juicy packages or returns.
