Sportsbet.io confiscates winnings (9'725 USDC)

[alicryptoking]

What happened:
I registered on Sportsbet.io on 26th September and started to make sport bets (mostly on ATP tennis and NFL American football). On 4th October my balance was 16'725 USDC and I requested a withdrawal. Sportsbet.io asked me to go through additional KYC procedure, which I successfully completed.

After that my balance was reduced to 7'000 USDC (9'725 USDC difference confiscated) and Sportsbet.io stated that they "have acquired evidence that you are acting in breach of our terms and conditions".

Couple of key points:
- I have not broken their terms and conditions, I have successfully completed two steps of KYC procedure when requested, and I am ready to go through any kind of identification/verification to prove my innocence. I have never had any other accounts with Sportsbet.io (which they are falsely trying to imply).
- Sportsbet.io did not provide ANY EVIDENCE
- Sportsbet.io stopped communicating with me through email (didn't reply for 3 days already), therefore I have to open this topic.
- Also note that I have made a smaller withdrawal previously and everything worked fine, but only when I actually won some money Sportsbet.io blocked my withdrawal and confiscated my winnings.
- I have all of the screenshots: my balance, all of my bets and all of the transactions if needed (attached couple of them in Additional notes).
I am entitled to receive my full balance of 9'725 USDC, but Sportsbet.io refuses to do so. The only "crime" I made was winning some money from a sportsbook, which is not a crime the last time I checked.

I wish I could cash out... In my case they just confiscated my winnings and stopped replying to my messages.

I am currently outside and has to access from the tiny screen of my phone, and I somehow can't access imgur. And it'll be a while before I can access the forum through my usual device. Can someone please reupload the image to talkimg so I can understand the situation better?

Here it is, @holydarkness... I have to reupload it as pictures doesn't appear from OP's post when quoted.

Steve just replied to you and take things into his plate about twenty four hours when you wrote your post above, on a weekend. Give him a couple more days, and if there's still no development from any channel, I'll nudge him myself

[alicryptoking]

Hello @sportsbet.io and @holydarkness, it's been 5 days since you were going to check on my case and more than 10 days since the support (safety@sportsbet.io) last replied to me through email.
I still haven't received my fairly won funds.

Fair enough. I promised you that I'll nudge him if there is still no development after several days. Given it's mid-week, I'll send him a PM and see what is happening. Please be a bit patient while I try to reach him.

Thank you @holydarkness.
As I haven't received any reply from Sportsbet (not here, not through emails with support) I have contacted local lawyers in Curacao (where Operators license is) and the Foundation for the Protection of Online Gambling Victims.
Will keep you updated here.

I would ask you to perhaps put pause to those motions, at least until I've exhaust my attempts here. People raises their situation here to the forum, and I attend to each of them, in hope to deescalate the situation without any need of other course of action. More likely than not, when people raised their issue elsewhere simultaneously, casino representative's will have to cease from responding here and follows the "higher" means of resolution.

Quite a few topics recently accusing Sportsbet, don't know how legit they are but I see a pattern: people get more replies if they didn't provide any evidence (like others start explaining that the posts look shady without screenshots, etc.), but guess what - I have all of the evidence in the world, described my case in detail here, I am sure that I didn't break any rules and ready to go through any kind of verification/identification.
Looks like when you have a strong case and Sportsbet has nothing to say against and no evidence to support their actions they just stay silent, right @sportsbet.io ?

Actually, quite the contrary, when people didn't provide any evidence, the overseers tend to regard those claims as baseless and they ignored it. Thus, more evidences actually leads to more replies.

Now, moving to your topic, I am glad that you have all the evidences. This way, we can be assured from your side that you can prove things wrong or right. Regarding Sportsbet's representative's silence, I was informed that he's currently travelling, thus [I believe] his inability to respond to you. You can rest assured that I am keeping a close monitor to this case and will routinely try to reach him until something meaningful happened.

What about sticking with your own thread where you have been already proven as a scammer? Do not think that people do not understand anything. You played on their platform and even won a trip to London which they did. You won a Trip to London for 2nd time but they found you doing multiple accounts. Since you are looking for a high-limit account to buy, I believe you tried every other way to play on Sportsbet before you started searching for an account to buy. You should know that Sportsbet allows only one account per household, IP, and device. So, no matter if your brother, sister, or a postman creates an account, it will be counted as your multiple account.
