tldr: BC.game should not be trusted platform.
Hi BitcoinTalk members,
First of all, I am an actual newbie here (I don't have main account, nor ever interacted with anyone on this forum prior my
BC.game complaint) and would like to call people to take action against rather unethical casino operator - BCgame.
BackgroundObviously, there is a reason for me opening this thread and forming it the way I will - I was direct victim of their scummy practices: avoiding to pay out winnings, avoiding legal jurisdiction, constant fabrication of data, avoiding to address public complaints directly, but rather gatekeeping it and what not.
So, before you engage with this thread, have in mind that there is personal "vendetta" against BC.game.
Having that in mind, I will be only stating obvious facts and observation of said entity in public (whether it's here, social media or any other source).
Agenda - get their accounts flagged. Simple as that. While I may be minority of people who has been victimized by them, I would like to, at least, inform wider audience to take extra precaution before engaging with said entity.
Avoiding legal jurisdiction and paying out legitimate players' winningsBetween 2023 and 2024, several other players and me have been victimized by BC.game by them refusing to pay out legitimate winnings, and instead ignoring us, thus not giving us any attempt to resolve issues. Being there is no other choice, we've decided to pursue legal ways of claiming our funds.
What happened: short story - lawyer sent out demand letters, and after being ignored he decided that the best strategy would be filing for bankruptcy of their entities (Small House BV and Blockdance BV, case numbers CUR 202403133 and 202403134) so he can use legal means to even give us an opportunity to get our funds, by requiring them to deposit a security ($2.x million) and give them an opportunity to fight these claims in court.
They decided not to fight it legally at all, not securing that deposit and getting declared bankrupt by default.
You can find a decision in most online media (next.io sigma.world etc) in regards to their bankruptcy. More details inside my complaint thread.
Fabrication of dataInteresting fact related to our legal complaint in Curacao was that BC.game constantly fabricated data and evidence publicly.
Mario Galea engaged in conversation with individual named Fabiano about creating new entity so they can avoid legal claims:

https://bc.game/help/announcement (according to archive.org, first time this page occured was in May 14, 2024 -
https://web.archive.org/web/20240201000000*/https://bc.game/help/announcement). There was another announcement page which they took shortly after disclaiming their new license from Anjouan.
Some details -

https://imgur.com/a/Pk7wderLets dig deeper into fabrication:
1 - My original account and the account created because of their Google Single Sign on bug were public during 2024. They only became private after BC.game was declared bankrupt. Third account mentioned remains: public for people to view, and is unknown to me, nor I have ever had any other account other than above mentioned.
2 - They claimed they were at loss because they previously processed up to $122k of withdrawals to me. Legitimate ones, same as the conflicting one.
3 - (intentionally?) blurred image as an evidence in court. Yes, we never received any actual visible evidence, nor proof that third account has any relationship with me (like to whom it is registered or is KYC done), even after requesting such for hearing preparation -

Here goes the twist - Casino guru complaint -
https://casino.guru/bc-game-casino-player-s-account-has-been-closed-without-3and decision made by their representative -
https://imgur.com/a/RBgBDQPA violation of the casino's Terms and Conditions accepted upon registration(s) - multiple accounts (at least 2 other linked accounts used on the same device, besides the duplicate mentioned above as a result of a mistaken login via the Google button, while one of them was even registered a day before the disputed account - the user was not allowed to register another (the disputed) account and play), self-referral - at least it is clear from the provided evidence, and it would be likely impossible to prove otherwise
so according to them (or evidence provided by BC.game), there are 4 accounts in total conflicting, while in their court defense there were only 3?
At this point, I believe it is obvious that they are actual scammers.
Avoiding to address complaints publiclySo, even though they have representative here on BitcoinTalk, and obviously on Casino.guru as well, it appears that none of their representatives are addressing, nor escalating issues appropriately, even though they are active. Instead, most of victims need to rely on a single person (@holydarkness, thanks for existing for others) in getting their complaints addressed.
Casino.guru is obviously whole another story. I believe this is by far biggest conflict of interest in resolving player's complaints, considering that Casino.guru is affiliate partner of BC.game, so they are biased towards them and or not reviewing any complaints appropriately. Furthermore, BCgame representatives are not even engaging publicly in those complaints at all. So, it's basically hearsay "we saw evidence and we say you abused BC.game platform".
Why would they do that? Simply - plausible deniability and keeping their reputation untarnished. If they engage publicly in complaint, they are aware that one exist and have to resolve it, otherwise their reputation is going down the sink. You can pretty much see that all complaints here on Bitcointalk are addressed by @holydarkness only, and many of them are even closed, because his contact said so (or fabricated evidence, as proven above).
In this instance, the only person that gets undeserved hate is holydarkness himself. While trying to help others by using his contacts, most of the time "resolution" is based on what two parties have to say. And I believe I certainly proved that the main party (BC.game) is giving him false data.
Example:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5527118.60I know there is a possibility that this player's claim might be fraudulent one, considering he is a newbie, as am I. But doesn't it seem little strange that there are number of similarities in such cases that "newbies" are thrown down the bus even though most of them are probably just actual Newbies here and have more integrity than BCgame themselves?
Now, here's another example -
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5504423.0OP's update:
Edit 6: I have received all 7 million dollars. no i didn't only receive half or any shit like that. i was right about them being able to pay it and not care. if trusted members wants proof in pms i can provide. it was truly just bad timing on their end, coco was in the fucking hospital the entire few weeks lmfao i had a long convo with him
ty sers, godspeed.
or something even more intriguing:
apart from this thread, there are several KYC-related complaint threads created against BC.game. the complaints were very similar to each other, the gambler tried to withdraw and was asked to perform KYC and then they either don't get an update on their KYC status or their KYC was denied. I don't know what is going on with their management but they seem to not respond to new cases posted here in the forum.
Would you mind sharing a screenshot to back up your claim?
so, in reality this was their strategy all along at the same time my account was closed?
Take an action I would ask everyone to go thoroughly through this thread, my complaint and all complaints against BC.game on BitcoinTalk and objectively "Support" or "Oppose" flag that I've placed for both @BC.GAME and @BC.Game Support, thus informing wide audience on who are BC.game in fact.
