Sad to see casinos pulling the plug so often these last few months. Now I'm curious as to what the total amount scammed is going to come to. Hopefully no-one lost too much but I guess even $1 is too much.

[Woodie]

What is going on here...ANN gone

To the point of deleting an announcement thread, this is confusing   maybe plan on using the same wording for another project in the future Perhaps a quote of the OP should be a must just to preserve this piece of information for the future..

Anything on trust pilot or their socials ?? What are we hiding here??

** Unfortunately if you leave this to speculation, people will speculate!!**

[acroman08]

From what has been said by other members and the fact that they deleted their ANN thread, it looks like an exit scam. Sorry to the people who got scammed.

I checked their casino, and it looks like there are still people gambling. Sooner or later, they'd probably find out that the casino is not processing withdrawals.

You have been a member here for awhile now, you should know that nothing is really gone. There is an archive that can be found easily. Far as speculation goes, nothing to speculate really. Sig campaign has been stopped and wallet not topped up, announcement post deleted, and team non responsive.

This is a classic example of why people should not move from a casino they have been using for quite some time to a completely new one only because they are offering better VIP bonuses or have better promotions or you shouldn't at least make large deposits to new casinos until they spend some time within the industry, maybe like a year or a couple.

New casinos are only good for trials, deposit a small amount to try it out, and never deposit large amounts, because you never know when the casino decides that it's already time for them to scam the gamblers and run away with the funds because they have got enough already.

Such a shame.

This is definitely an exit scam by scammers that are preparing another comeback in another form which is why they are deleting things rather than simply running away, probably the have reached their target with this project. We have not seen any scam accusation anywhere in the forum, maybe victims are silent. pI have deposited once here and everything went fine, so bad that such a fine casino turned out to be operated by scammers. There is need to be careful because it seems that there is a group of guys operating this scam and hell bent on spoiling the casino business for new investors. It was not long when Betmoco scammed people and ran away, now this one too, there could be a connection.

It’s just useless to delete their ANN thread because everything was already archived automatically which means the evidence for their scam can’t be deleted totally.

What we need to watch out is their license details since they will probably just recycle it and update new information based on their new website.

Their casino is still running so everything is visible for now. Posting here their license details for the record

What makes this even worse is that their team has not made any statement to explain what just happened. None of their official channels show any sign of activity. This seems like it was planned from the very beginning. A legitimate project would show up and explain the situation rather than just disappear. Saying nothing is still an answer and it is not a good one.

[bitbollo]

Has anyone already had a delayed withdrawal?
deleting a thread has no sense, there are many sites that have recorded all bitcointalk posts, included edits.
for sure, some deposits are stuck inside (its a gambling website...)... probably they could take advantage but in the same (considering was a new platform) they can just give money back... but anyway no explanation at all?

There are two possible explanations to the fact they decided to delete all information available which they could get rid of:

They are either unaware of the tools we have here on the forum to permanently archive threads and posts, so they thought it was going to be in their interest to delete their digital footprint here on the forum as the ran away with our money. Or they are just mocking our community by showing signs of an exist scams and not caring about it. That adds up to the fact they are not longer replying to messages on Telegram and on Twitter.

I would not be surprised if they decided to close their social media account and just leave people scammed and with no further explanation at all.

Because it is an exit scam, so no, they won't bother explaining what happened. It appears there is a group of scammers who just realised that launching a casino in this forum and doing a little bit of advertising can get them some potential victims.
I am certain they will come around with a new domain name and claim it's a brand new casino.

There was a huge red flag connected to the site regarding the whole curaçao license situation right in the starting page of this thread which several posters including me noticed and they never bothered to clarify it appropriately. Makes sense now.

Gamblers really need to stick to sites with valid licenses(Anjouan, Curaçao etc) which still doesn't guarantee avoiding scams, but it's better than ones without any licensing or fake licenses.

I am always hypercritic with new companies in this sector because there are many ways for trick the users (even selective scam...)

About new scam platforms, even if this is a rich industry,  there are "signs" for casinos that companies must not be trusted (and unfortunately you had always to check their fairness or appraoch). Here there was many elements unfortunately as noted. I am adding a neutral trust as "warning" to not deposit / check this discussion.

What makes this even worse is that their team has not made any statement to explain what just happened.

And let's say they would come and made any statement about what has happened:
- What kind of reply would justify the deletion of the topic and its presence on social media
- Who would believe any kind of excuse, and even if made believable by all the strat aligning, why would you trust them further?

I can only think of one excuse, and that is a rogue employee, but this does not cover the aftermath, only the cause!

I don't see any reason to do this!
Let's assume it's a completely planned scam at this point, how would even complete deletion from everything help them and then on the other side, how would the announcement here threaten them in any kind of way? To be honest, I don't see why they deleted and didn't let the ad keep getting new users to the platform, this assuming you can still deposit there, which I don't think they disabled anyhow..

Yeah.. the Anjouan license is worthless. Curacao might provide some regulatory oversight following the rework of its gambling framework, which is why so many casinos switched to Anjouan. Still, having these licenses are better than nothing, but not by much.

someone on twitter posted a reply they got on telegram (he was promoting them before, so i would take the "fine" part with a grain of salt for obv reasons):

https://x.com/Taigadota/status/2051852246091014566



thier excuse, is that they got an AML/CFT letter from the curacao gaming authority, wich sound like bullshit.
i mean if that was the case, they would make an announcement about it, not wipe the whole ann, not pay the sig campaign, and not reply to people on telegram and twitter, but conveniently replied to this guy. yeah... totally believable.

this looks more and more to be an exit scam.

the problem with the offshore gambling licenses, is that it gives players a false sense of security, and with how easy and relatively cheap it is to get one, scammers get one for that exact reason.

They are scammers, they do not need to make sense at all. They just want our money with the minimum effort humanely possible. In the moment they decided to pull their exit scam, they get some adrenaline rush and commit mistake ordo thing which do not make sense or have anything to do with their original planning of getting as much money as possible from victims.

You are right, they could have left the ANN untouched, in order to attract more victims who would be unaware of this whole situation, but again... We human beings are irrational by default, now imagine how irrational we can be under situations in which we would obviously going against the law or commiting a crime.

It does not matter whether they decided to delete or not this ANN, because they have already started to run away with those who had already deposited.

We shouldn’t expect to hear anything from the team, they exited so we need to kove on, the manager said in his announcement that his last week budget wasn't even sent so they were really prepared for they action and we shouldn't expect anything honourable from them as they are gone..

One of the main thing we should know is that, it's always hard to detect a scam casino until the scam start happening which is why is easy for a new casino to pop up here run a few weeks of campaign to promote themselves before scamming in the end.

[Sanitough]

That is what they don’t know about, they are trying to outsmart people here without realizing that traces will remain, even if they delete the whole announcement.

Obviously, this looks like a scam. The question now is whether they are really registered or not, because if they are not, then it will be hard to track them down. But since they are offering games that are definitely not in-house, maybe there is still some information that can point to who is behind it.
I just hope they will pay those who were affected, so they will not face bigger problems in the future.

One of the main thing we should know is that, it's always hard to detect a scam casino until the scam start happening which is why is easy for a new casino to pop up here run a few weeks of campaign to promote themselves before scamming in the end.

That is definitely based on how users will see it. If they like the casino, they will sign up, that’s how simple it is.

Campaign managers here will never accept a casino that is already proven scam, but they also cannot control what will happen in the future. Even the most popular and reputable casinos are not 100% safe from scamming people. In fact, it can be more risky sometimes because they already gained the trust of many users and they probably have millions in deposits on a daily basis.

So all we can do is take the warnings seriously, avoid this kind of casino, and spread the word so others will not become victims too.
