Dont be dumb gamblers

[okala]

What I normally do is to game with platform on the forum and go through their site review to know vif the gambling site is legit and not sc you. But most of the gambling you fi e on Google may not have any good review and reputation but you will never know until you get in to start noticing the scam activities from they platform.

Indeed. Don't be a dumb gambler and primarly avoid those mistakes:

Seven deadly sins of sports betting

Do you have some ideas with what we can expand that list? Is there something missing?

That list is completely exclusive. The forth sin which was listed as WRATH is one thing I never cease to emphasize on when teaching players on how to gamble. There is always an ideal mood to gamble and that is just when you are in a normal state of mind. Over joyousness can lead one to make mistakes in gambling. I read the story of a man that won over $100,000 from gambling, he was so excited that he tried going on another bet with the money and within a blink of an eye, he had lost it all.

The last line is everything; play with your heart and not your heart. Adding emotions to gambling is one of the greatest mistake any gambler would make, both happy moods and unhappy moods should be separated from gambling entirely.

Additional also on some gambling websites that are just collecting every personal information of people that will sign up on their website. Especially the password and your email address like they will use the email address and password to login to some website that they will likely guess it. Be careful always on visiting and registering accounts online, always double check.

Yeah, I think you are talking about the very first advise given by Op. And this is very instructive, I hardly visit a site that has not been discussed on the forum. It is too risky because if you eventually register in a scam site, you can be scammed in various ways and one of it is that, you will be getting tempting messages on your email

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

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.

I will tell you about the way things work in the market. Something that is the best out there is advertised and is sold on high prices. Something that is the worst is also advertised and is represented as the best service/good and you are charged for that. That being said, it is necessary to understand that there might be good and bad casinos websites when it comes to the provision of services but you have to have that trait to feel if one is good as compared to another. Only then you could make some money. Staying on a casino with some weak service is going to be very tough for you to make money/enjoy at.

It's your friend fault then, randomly gamble on random gambling site from google and not searching or review first lol.

Talk to him, don't always trust whatever come from google result lol. It's not always safe, rip $200. There are so many online gambling, so be careful folks!

Correct, considering a lot of scams online nowadays, it's not advisable to gamble on any other sites without checking if it's legit or not. Maybe the friend is so trusting that he didn't think of anything else but to gamble only. It's surprising though that he can't remember the site when most of scammed people can't forget anything that ripped them off. 

And as what I have said last time,I don’t know what comes to their mind to just check random sites and played to it when there are thousands of sites(or I am exaggerating lol) that offers legit gambling experiences here

This will serve as lesson to them that to not trust sites just that,and always keep in mind that gambling is the most scam place in crypto world

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.

It's unfortunate that your friend cannot even remember the name of the scam site when he should so he can warn other people, so they cannot do what they've done to your friend,  the first thing your friend have done and to those who have been scammed is to report it immediately in this forum or any related forum and the most important thing is, not to forget the name.

The same as here, I don't usually visit gambling sites that didn't have ads here. Those gambling sites that found on google and sending you an email usually have shitty activities. Unless if that gambling site having sig ads here I didn't have doubt to deposit my money. The situation that happens by OP friend was greediness he was tempted by the prize.

yes all your points are giving the the people who dumped the Gamblers into a different situation but gambling is also like the way of getting entertained and getting a little profit also so we cannot make the waste time in gambling it is also useful if you are doing it useful.

I also read through the list and it is nice. I think the sin of LUST should always be our watchword in gambling. There are people that are always out of their mind ones they hear about gambling because they feel it is a place to gain all the joy in the world. This is more common with those who play for fun, they lost after the game that they no longer have control in gambling.

There is a saying that whatever has a beginning also has an end, its good to know when to put an end to the game. Gambling is very interesting obviously but it can be controlled, I have been doing this in gambling and I try to set a limit to playing my game.

But most of the gambling you fi e on Google may not have any good review and reputation but you will never know until you get in to start noticing the scam activities from they platform.

I think I trust the reviews on the forum more than on Google search but I always look at reviews also. And I look at sites that have existed for long, it seems those sites are always better because most new sites are scam sites. In short there are just too many scam and I am even afraid of gambling sometimes. I have lost again to another site last week despite how careful I always play  but then I understand its common with gambling.

With the increased number of scam gambling sites, the only thing gamblers should do is to be extremely smart and careful. It’s really terrible how much money gamblers are losing to scam sites on a daily basis.

[sana54210]

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.

How can his friend not take note of a site opening, is he a newbie in gambling and what the smartness we preach here always is. It is very clearing this case that the young man was greedy and I can say this without mincing words that if we dig deep, we would always realize that of 1 to 10 scam issues that happens in gambling, there is always an atom of greed on the side of the player.

Let him that have ears hear, if anyone fails to go through reviews, check out familiar websites in gambling and do a proper research before gambling, they should be held responsible for their action and learn to put blames on themselves.

You are right greed is very dangerous for players but greedy gamblers will admit to this. I made a friend on this forum of recent and he shared his gambling experience with me, and how he lost over 4BTC to gambling, I was so amazed because judging from all the explanation, it was so obvious that he was greedy because there was an opportunity to stop.

 Let’s not be too fast to put money into gambling. It is always good to read reviews and know the site very well. This is what I have been doing and I have really avoided been scammed. So any one that refuse to read reviews would not have any site to blame for been scammed.

[d1ceplayer]

Sorry your friend is the one who is dumb here. Why would he choose to throw money a site he knows nothing about?? Like who even does such a thing?? I am not that stupid. I don't just jump on a search page and looking for any site that I can use for gambling when I already know that the Internet is filled with scammers and there are lots of websites that are owned by them. These days the level of scammers in the Internet is high and the number of fake websites are now more than the legit ones. So I cannot make such a mistake.

[redsun114]

I don't find this to be real, because even when you search internet for a gambling website with cryptocurrency acceptance you'll get a list of gambling websites that have gained good reputation from the cryptocurrency users. I think he might have got scammed through some referral link which he could've received into his email.

This is SEO brother. You need to search things out with different terminologies. Check out Stake.com and you will be directed to so many options where you would be able to participate and gamble with your crypto. This is a small thing man, you need to be sharp like James Bond to be able to make thing happen in virtual world and maybe make money in crypto gambling.

Let’s try not to be too fast at judging other peoples mistakes. Yes he made a mistake and had admitted but calling names is uncalled for. We all make mistakes especially in gambling, What if the friend is new to the game. My close friend also made this kind of mistake despite all I have taught him on gambling, there was nothing I could do than to keep on encouraging him. So many shits happen in gambling industry.

Too many scam sites by the day, we just have to be very vigilant.
Play on famous sites only, read reviews from those who have played on the sites and the best places to get these reviews are on this forum and at first play, it’s better to play with very small amount of money.

Actually that’s really rare and looks suspicious that if this really happens or not,because we have many gambling sites here,who’s legit and reliable than those random sites from internet

I will never do such thing for I know the risk of being gamblers and about lots of scammers in the internet

[BitBustah]

Its hard to get an accurate read on online casinos because there are a lot of shills across the internet.  Even the so called reputable casinos have many scam accusations against them.  The best thing to do if you like gambling is to try to put that money into risky investments instead of a casino, thats the smart play.

Obviously  we all make this mistakes and we are here not only to earn but to learn as well, we should try to increase our skills about different games so that we will not lose, I know some people get in gambling but after that they use to follow other peoples instructions and other people’s ideas which is not good for sure so better make your own decision and don’t repeat mistakes or try to learn from other peoples experiences.

I would like to add one more point here which I think is the most important and many newbies get victim of it.

5. Do not get attracted / tempted  to Deposits bonus / Referral bonus on the newly created gambling / betting sites.

Its not a big deal if he does not remember the scam site name. There is 1000s of them and you have to follow the above rules in order to prevent yourself from scam. If you just remember that this and that site are scam and should be avoided, it is likely that you might find another scam site and become victim of it. Just follow the above general rules and you will be safe 90% of the time.

I think it is not the only most scammed place in the world because there are millions of such scam cases which just do not make it to the internet. In addition, this could really discourage the new guys in the industry to see that almost every second website for gambling will scam them. There are pretty good websites as well and I believe that we need to talk more often about them to let these so called Dumb Gamblers get over the air of confusion.
