Online or offline gambling which is more safer?

[Oilacris]

Offline casinos for sure have security that could help you with violence and also ask for assistance for your safety when going home like calling the police. The only problem is that you are exposed to your identity, people could be familiar with your face and might do bad deeds when they meet you. While online you can be prone to hacking and scams which can drain your wallet, it might be convenient but the internet could suck sometimes as smart people could take advantage of their knowledge on the internet. Gambling is gambling, it could be online or offline people could still be addicted as well lose a lot of money with gambling. Everyone is also free to gamble but by being responsible and having the self-control to avoid huge losses that can cause a domino effect on a person's life.

The gambler should be separate from the other insecure public Wifi,because many people report their loss of their personal data and report that in most of their social media accounts.Even we had get to know in some cases related to the easy hack of personal data by the people who target the personal.The gamblers use to spend the 1-10k dollars in the gambling site to play based on their money holdings,but the price for the private Wifi is not huge and doesn’t get the value of 10-20$ per month.The data privacy was the important one for the gambler and most of us.So the better way to use the private data package for the gambling play which also help the gamblers to play without any hanging issue.The gambler should choose the offline gambling will be safer for the personal data safety.

I haven't heard of online platform blocking there customers account over a win. I think most online casino dont required kyc. and its possible that it can be a trap of swindling people money when there is a big win. Its possible though.

Not all the gambling site doing this and even the most popular gambling site will not engage in this activity.So the gamblers should use the best gambling site in the market to avoid of the account ban after the win by the gambling site.The offline gambling also close the shop at the lottery withdrawal day,everything was the possible one.

When it comes to connection issue then it wont really be that hard to understand about those basic principles in regarding about security and safety on which it would really be just that right that you
should really know at least on the things that you are current dealing with. Its impossible that someone wont really be able to point out on whats better options in speaking about security.
In speaking about online or offline gambling then it would be having those risks if we do speak about those other factors but we do really know that it isnt really that much of a serious
issue if we do speak about total leisure times and involvement on which as long you are really that spending on the amount that you could afford to lose
then you wont really be minding that much.

They can both be unsafe but in very different ways. For example… Online gambling can lead you to fall victim to hacks, man in the middle schemes, scam operators, or flat out refusing to let you withdraw your own funds. In person gambling can lead you to being robbed in a parking lot or followed home if you have a big win.

I've also heard something similar to what you said above, bro...that online gambling is being hacked slowly and I've also heard that people who win money should withdraw it to cash it out but can't with notifications of network problems or other things. Yes, sometimes this is also a way of deception, if we ourselves are not sensitive and careful, the slightest mistake will have fatal consequences. I'm curious whether they are hackers or fraudsters, they already know that the accounts used by gamblers have often won so they are easy to track. and it is no different from live gambling. Bad things will happen if someone wins, so if someone is not sensitive and careful, crimes will occur, such as being robbed after returning home from the casino.

In my opinion, this all depends on the person himself in handling the type of gambling he plays because basically both have the same risk of losing a lot of money if we are not able to control ourselves well, online gambling is easy to access anywhere and for those who have a debit card, A credit card will make it easy to make deposits so you can play comfortably without any obstacles. Playing offline gambling is actually just as easy, but we have to visit the casino with cash and don't spend all the money on the credit card, but don't be mistaken, not all gamblers who play offline gambling carry less money at the casino, sometimes they are also to bring a credit card to withdraw the money back and continue their activities, so in my opinion offline and online gambling have the same risks that gamblers need to pay attention to, namely that they are able to control themselves in playing so that they don't experience big losses which result in the loss of all your savings on your debit card.

[adzino]

Sometimes people are always addicted to playing gambling online and this has made them loss alot of funds, due to always topping up theire casino account with there debit card when they loose. and this usually makes them exhaust all there funds.

While those people playing offline in casino halls play with only the little money they have at hand, and that will reduce the risk of over spending. So now my question is this

Playing online or offline gambling which is more preferable in terms of risk reduction?

This makes no sense at all. So you think people go to offline casinos without their card and takes "less" cash with them? You really think they don't have access to the ATM machine nearby? Of course they do. No matter if it's an online or an offline casino, as long as the person knows how to control himself and is going there to have fun, they won't be spending a lot. They are there for entertainment, not for the profit. But yeah, people might tend to gamble more online, because they can do so from their home within few seconds whenever they feel like. But the risk is the same when gambling either online or offline. In the long run you will always be losing and if you don't gamble responsibly, you will end up being broke.

[ethereumhunter]

The only difference between online gambling and offline gambling is the availability. Online gambling these days is very easy to fund, bets and win or loss without thinking twice of what to even do next while in offline gambling, you can go there gamble and win and get paid instantly or be told to come back to collect your winnings, you may even be asked to come back and see the owner of the casino before you even get your winning. That's the only difference I see about online and offline casino..

However, the only thing that can stop an offline person from playing is when the casino is not is not available for playing but as long as the casino is open, they will always play and may possess the same risk. Sometimes even if the offline casino doesn't open, they might go to another available casino to play. That's what I know some gamblers can do just to gamble one or two games. The summary is that as long as the casino is open, people will come.

We already know the advantages of online casinos, where we can deposit funds without having to leave the house, and we can also gamble from home. This is what makes many people like gambling at online casinos because they can gamble wherever they want. They need to have an internet connection, deposit their money via online payment, and start playing straight away. Maybe it is online casinos that can now make people more addicted to gambling because of the various conveniences that can be obtained by people so that they get deeper into gambling.

And if we talk about security, online casinos are still safer because by being able to gamble at home, they don't need to leave the house while bringing a lot of money to the casino. It's another matter if they go to an offline casino where they have to bring a certain amount of money to be able to start gambling. Maybe offline casinos also offer online payments so people don't need to carry much money. However, many people who have experienced the convenience of gambling at online casinos still choose online casinos.

Not only this but online gambling could be hugely risky as well. For example, let's say you have won a big amount online, but now the casino is not paying. They block the account and deny withdrawals. This is why we see a lot of scam accusations every day online. Online casinos ask for KYC verifications and many more which is extremely risky. There are chance of getting hacked too.

I haven't heard of online platform blocking there customers account over a win. I think most online casino dont required kyc. and its possible that it can be a trap of swindling people money when there is a big win. Its possible though.

You must be new here buddy! Most online casinos require KYC these days. Stake.com was KYC-free back then and required KYC on request. But now, they need KYC prior to signing up. 95 percent of casinos ask for KYC verification these days. If you haven't seen casinos blocking users accounts after a big win, feel free to check scam accusation board. There are no casino who haven't faced such allegations. If any casino want to scam their players, at first, they freeze user withdrawals and limit their bet amount and then start to investigate if player violated any kind of rules. If they didn't violate any rules, they ask players for KYC verification. Most of the times casino blames players of violating rules once users win big amount of money.

It turns out that the casino makes money not only on players who lose over a long distance, but also on the fact that players are likely to return to them with a win only to lose it. So they also freeze the user’s winnings. Considering all this, they earn very well. But if we look from the other side, before we play we must make sure that we aren't violating any rules of this casino, and it is definitely better to go through the KYC before playing. But even if you don’t break the rules, sometimes I see topics created in which players accuse the casino of unfair play. I think that large casinos will not risk their reputation for this. In general, I think that a lot of people don’t read the rules, even I’m too lazy to read them sometimes. Maybe then we deserve such an attitude towards us, because in the beginning we also treated the rules.

Online casinos offer easy access from anywhere and you can gamble at any time as long as you are still connected to the internet, offline casinos don't have this because gamblers have to go to a physical casino to gamble, if we discuss the risks of using money and which bets have the highest use of funds to gamble online or offline casino?

The use of funds at online casinos is higher because of the ease of access for quick transfers to casino accounts, but physical casinos require cash for betting and the possibility of gamblers at physical casinos has a lower risk of losing after gambling even though the casino provides ATM machine services for cash withdrawals. However, all risks depend on each gambler without comparison between gambling at online casinos or offline casinos because each gambler applies different limits on the use of funds, psychological influences, or different betting personal rules.

[SOKO-DEKE]

I think both offline and online gambling go in the same direction if someone is addicted to gambling because they will always gamble no matter what, whether it is offline or online. When someone is addicted to gambling, they can spend all day in a casino shop and even go to any length to borrow money when they know they have no more to gamble again, despite it being offline. The same applies to online gambling. But when someone is not addicted to gambling, offline can be safer because they will not feel more comfortable wasting their money when some people may be looking at them, but online it may be more comfortable to keep gambling because nobody sees him, especially me when I am gambling online. I spend more money online than offline because nobody is seeing me, but offline because I don't want people to carry my matter as a topic. I only spend a little amount that will not catch the intention of people nowadays, and that is why I don't even play online again.

Playing online or offline gambling which is more preferable in terms of risk reduction?

Casino rely on advertisements as one of their marketing strategy. I believe that this advertisement can easily hit or persuade people to play online since I'm positive that the advertisement online has some link of the casino and a gambler can easily play with ease since it is accessible as long as he has a device. On the other hand, offline casinos focuses in making gamblers stay on their casinos more after the gambler entered their casino.

I think that online casino leans more in making a gambler enter their casino and offline casino leans more in making gambler stay inside of their casino for extended period of time.

At the end of the day, it will all depend on the gambler. If the gambler is irresponsible, no matter where he play either online or offline, he will spend more and more.

It is all about the control of the gambler.

It is quite clear that at first glance we can already see about the advantages and disadvantages of both casinos, I agree with your idea that online casinos can make it easier for gamblers to get involved with all the conveniences they offer, and what is more prominent is that online casinos have no boundaries as long as you have a cell phone connected to the internet, meaning as you said that wherever and whenever we can gamble if we have a certain amount of balance in the account to bet and this is one of the advantages that physical casinos do not have.

On the other hand if you ask which one is more risky I think for people who have common sense and can use it properly then they will say that both types of gambling have the same risk but maybe with different types of convenience and services, and you have said that for risk issues it really depends on each individual on how they approach their gambling activities, if they go overboard and without having any management especially on their finances then obviously the risk of losing is potentially greater.

[Casdinyard]

I think the safest choice is Online Gambling. The fact of the matter is that there's no real "safe" place. As even in the comfort of your own home you can find some stuff that would certainly put you in harm's way. But compared to getting outside and in one of the most aggressive and bustling parts of the outside world? Yeah your home's going to be a safe haven indeed.

People inebriated from the complementary drinks, as well as those who are already frustrated with their luck and losses are already a good reason for you to think that brick-and-mortar casinos are not the safest place out there. Not to mention the fact that suicide is a common occurrence in most casinos as a lot of people down in their lucks and already decided about their fates come into casinos to basically go out with a bang. It's also considerably biologically hazardous to be inside a casino, I mean come on, some addicts literally piss on themselves just so they don't leave a hotspot especially in slot machines. And I don't need to mention how all of these aren't in the comfort of your home. At least I hope so lol.

So yeah, Online Gambling's still perilous from all the hacks and scams as what many here have mentioned, but compared to offline casinos? yeah it's going to be the safest choice between the two any day.

Its really that impossible that you cant really be able to differentiate in speaking about the risk in both places but eventually both things does have risks in speaking about on the gambling games
naturally but in speaking about security then it could also have that imposed those security risks too on which it would be that impossible that you would really be able to point it out
on the time that you would really be able to experience things on which it would really be just that too impossible that you wont really be able to notice it out
even just using your own common sense then you would really be able to spot it out. The thing here is that you should really just make use of the amount on which you can only afford to lose.

Playing online or offline gambling which is more preferable in terms of risk reduction?

Since online gambling is way more accessible and convenient, expect more users doing online gambling losing money in a process.

But don't forget the fact that either online or offline gambling, there's no such thing as being safe. Both can wrecked your wallet.

Generally speaking, we are talking about gambling here. A gambler will always find a way to gamble because of their temptation.

If it is about using funds to gamble in online or offline casinos, it may be the same but it also depends on each person who gambles. Some people can control the use of funds for gambling at online casinos. They understand that excessive use of funds in gambling will only result in more losses and if they continue to do things like that, they will lose even more money than people who gamble in offline casinos, and vice versa. So we must be able to control our funds to gamble wherever we gamble, be it an online or offline casino, to avoid more losses.

It's possible that brick-and-mortar casinos already have a way that makes it easier for people to transfer their funds to a casino account so that the casino can just credit the funds to their gambling account. After that, gamblers at physical casinos can immediately gamble and won't have the hassle of carrying a lot of money to physical casinos. There may be an ATM machine service in a physical casino, making it easier for gamblers who come to the casino and want to gamble immediately after they withdraw their money from the ATM machine. There are many ways that physical casinos can do this, depending on the technology used by the physical casino.

but I think it depends on a person's use of money, if someone has financial arrangements for gambling I think they will be safer in financial matters in principle. But if you don't have that, it is definitely a difficult thing for a gambler, both offline and online gambling, they will definitely lose their money because they continue to be tempted by curiosity.

but in my opinion, whether a game or casino is safe depends on the casino itself, whether online or offline, because many offline ones are also not safe, so in my opinion this is relative.

But let's also face it, RTP doesn't exist in physical casinos. We can keep on playing for thousands of rounds but we won't still hit that moment where the casino is giving back. Online casinos do have that which makes them more attractive to most gamblers. If they can somehow prolong the game because of the RTP then I think there's a chance to win the game. A $1000 will go so far if you bet $1 per round or half of it. In Plinko, it might take 10000 rounds before it's all gone and so do with Keno. I think double or triple the rounds when it's slots, picking the games with enhanced RTP will make it go further than that.
That's what we cannot have in physical casinos because most of the time they just keep on taking our money until we are rekt. We are only looking for one lucky strike there but that could mean spending a lot of money if luck won't come.

[asyakashi]

Talking about safety, I think it's the same. They have their own cheats or loopholes in each game. but comparing the two, I believe more in offline gambling. Just like card gambling, it is immediately distributed in front of us, even if they have cheating, we who are experienced will definitely know it. If there is fraud online, it is very difficult for us to claim the fraud, especially since their data is hidden. but I don't have a problem with online or offline gambling. For me, gambling means that I have invested the money from the start, regardless of winning or losing.

[EarnOnVictor]

They can both be unsafe but in very different ways. For example… Online gambling can lead you to fall victim to hacks, man in the middle schemes, scam operators, or flat out refusing to let you withdraw your own funds. In person gambling can lead you to being robbed in a parking lot or followed home if you have a big win.

Bad things will happen if someone wins, so if someone is not sensitive and careful, crimes will occur, such as being robbed after returning home from the casino.

Let us not take this too far, huge amounts are being wagered daily in online casinos, and by the way, how many online casinos' customers have been fairly hacked? Hacking is possible but it would be majorly targeted at the person of the casino itself, and not their customers, and most times, it is often an internal job, not otherwise. Even those casinos that claim that their customer's account was hacked might not be entirely truthful about it, which is why we should be smart even when we gamble online. We might divide our money in casinos so that the ones we are playing with will not be greedy to the point of attacking us directly or indirectly to steal our money and blame it on anything else.

Online casinos have their good side which ranges from easy accessibility, privacy, low wagering, comfort and all that, which can't be substituted for anything. Besides, I have read of the cases of being robbed after winning big from an offline casino, but bro, this is something old, not new again. I do not know the person who will be so foolish enough these days to cash out his winnings in cash. What is peculiar to those who were robbed was cash withdrawals from their casinos which I know is not good.

[Blowon]

Even though offline looks safer, I still choose online gambling. the reason is because I am used to this and it is very easy to play with no place. wherever I am I can gamble. If we gamble offline we have to come to a certain place. I think the issue of security is the same. unless they are a large casino that has been around for a long time, otherwise they are difficult to trust whether they are truly honest in their casino or there is fraud.
