#1 RATINGS of BITCOIN SPORTSBOOKS since 2014 : KYC Rankings, Bonuses, Scam Accus

[Peeps Place]

I give A+ to Directbet! They are #1!

they are A+ for most of bitcointalk community members i know it, but we can't ignore current directbet case about a double spending attempt and confiscated funds worth thousands dollar. complicated case and still no solution to solve the problem.

Sometimes attempted double spend shows without a person trying to double spend. If DirectBet confiscates the $16,500, it sets a precedent that DirectBet can confiscate money any time attempted double spend shows.

peeps the player clearly tried to double-spend, however even if he wouldn't I don't understand why he keeps refusing to comply with the requisites to receive the payout..

DirectBet have on their rules:

"We reserve the right to confiscate wagers when we believe that fraudulent activity is involved, including but not limited to, hacking attempts, double spends and odds manipulation. By placing a bet at DirectBet you agree that in case of any dispute DirectBet decision is final."

In this case they are not just confiscating the funds, they are offering to refund the funds if user perform 2 simple actions.
I may be missing something here but I as others have previously said we need to check also from the bookmaker perspective, if not all bookmakers would go bankrupt in 2 weeks.

I don't think any site should get a pass for seizing funds because they reserved the right to do so in their fine print.  In fact, I consider the fine print pretty useless in an unregulated environment, once they have your money, they can do whatever they want with it no matter what anyone says or does, what are you gonna do, call someone? 

The only thing they can't completely control is their reputation. (signature campaigns are often a desperate attempt to)

It's up to the players to asses what kind of behavior should be acceptable or not.


Is it ok for a site to advertise this on their front page:





And then hold a players money hostage in exchange for personal details?

Attempted hacks occur daily at sportsbooks. DirectBet is the only one to confiscate funds.

Sometimes attempted double spend show without a person trying to double spend.

That's true, but we have developed extensive knowledge, experience and tools that allow us to tell the difference.

Here in this incident hungerstyle did it on purpose. There is evidence in the payout address.

You may have noticed that for several days now we are asking hungerstyle to post the payout address used for this bet, and he avoided doing it before eventually disappearing.

There is a reason why he didn't want to post the payout address for this bet.

He knew that once he posts it, it will be clear to all that he is a criminal and that this was a fraud attempt.

Even if he is a criminal, you can never confiscate deposits. He may play at many books. DirectBet shouldn't be the only book allowed to confiscate funds without repercussions. There must be a substantial downgrade in ratings.

It's a standard universal rule for Bitcoin Sportbooks to confiscate coins when a fraudulent activity is involved.

Here is a quote from the rules of your favorite book :

If Nitrogen Sports believes that any customer has intentionally acted in bad faith or has engaged in fraudulent activity, Nitrogen Sports reserves the right to take any steps necessary.

Here is another example :

If you are found to be cheating, colluding, or attempting to cheat at any game offered by BitcoinRush.io your account will be closed, and the funds tied to the account will be confiscated by the operators of BitcoinRush.io

As you can see, we all have the same rule, and rightfully so.

Members here should be aware that only reason why Peeps Place singles us out is because we refused to pay him for advertisement, while books that pay him are "protected" from negative feedback and downgrades.

Peeps Place, for transparency, can you please disclose the list of Sportbooks that pay you to advertise and promote them ?

If the address somehow proves he is guilty, why not just post the address?  I don't think he's going to.  

I was thinking you thought there was a 3rd party pretending to  be the original better, but not sure what's going on here.

These are not rules that are followed literally, they just give you right right to do whatever you want.  It's lawyer stuff, since you all are unregulated, you already have that right, so really there's no need for them.

I can tell you that if you were regulated in New Jersey, for example, you would either pay the player or pay the state.  

The house is responsible for protecting themselves against the possibility of fraud.  If they were to potentially profit off these situations, it would create an environment prone to corruption.  Casinos would have motivation to encourage cheating.  

Question for DirectBet:  What would you have done if HungryStyle lost his bet?  

Would you have been proactive in telling him he was guilty of fraud?  
That the bet was void and he would not have been paid if he won?

Or would you say nothing and hope for another deposit from him.

This is a problem if you have been activly requesting payment from books, Peeps.  

It would explain the funny way you've handled Betcoin issues (Example)

I hope it's not true, but if it is, full disclosure of any money or favors accepted by peeps belongs in OP so each player can take it into consideration when making their own opinion.


Edit: I didn't realize peeps has his own site, thought this was referring just to the thread.

THe site has obvious banners, enough for players to assume peeps is profiting off this,  so most of my assumptions were wrong.  

[Peeps Place]

Are there anymore Cloudbet issues?

[FastEddie1]

i can send emails from that address only cloudbet sees a scrambled address so they have started ignoring me.  How is it that i have all the emails they sent me if it is not my email address?  How hard is this to understand?  i hate to just give up here. 
i am no stranger to being screwed over by offshore bookies.  i lost $1500 when Betislands went down.

Question for DirectBet:  What would you have done if HungryStyle lost his bet?

Had the bet lost, we wouldn't have received the coins.

This would incur a loss to us, and he did not leave contact information.

You have no proof of this and is 100% opinion and speculation.

Not only is the TX you provide prove to be before nadal begins unlike you claim but it is mathematically invalid.

The input was spend 24 hour before nadal even begins. If you dont use this exact input then it mathematically changes the hash/TXID. Since you can not spend this input at time of nadal, it is true the hash you provide is not fraud. You would need a different TX for fraud double spend.

So again there is no TXID that supports a double spend attempt AFTER nadal or any fraudulant attempt.

You ask me to post address to verify for all so we see when you send coin. I already email you the original address to verify AND the ideal new payout address both match forum and email so you know identity.  Just delay delay delay

You think not me? How come no oneelse post or write. You think just go by by with no word? Both bet? RIIIIIIIGHT. No you just delay.

I did not want you to make send to original address because I do not have control because I buy action local same day for same payout.

Same local exchnage who not help me communicate with you , very obvious why not want to support local exchange any more and to be sure before you send off randoml like bad child with temper.

Directbet, your website display confirm bet of which I make trade on. That is directbet reputation of which I was sold to to begin with.

It is one thing (although shady)as business to say our code not work correct. But wrong to confiscate without anything but 100% proof and that you not have.


Original bet payout address: 1E66h8kzMvmQobkQDDtSwxmR8SDzUxqzhd (match email)

But request payout to: 1Ff4iUkdiY1LbMjXBKb8mnpEYg1ZsHYSPM because user may want new address for infinite reason to send 3 weeks late.

If you need send 1E66, fine, atleast not bad directbet and not directbet problem

I tired of your silly email and I will post all to imgur so all can see entire way directbet to treat customer and it look like this not first time bad direcbe to player. Entire situation just show every big player to think twice before send.

[Peeps Place]

DirectBet - Please keep your discussion to DirectBet only. As per thread rules, discussion on other books is not allowed and will be deleted as so not to clog up this thread. It's not fair for other books to have to come in to defend themselves.

[robinH]

Having read this thread and the scam accusation,  disgusting behaviour from direct bet. Coupled with the worst odds for any bitcoin sports book, or any book for that matter.  Only idiots play there.

[hungerstyle]

I use third party, I give them money and they send bitcoin. I tell directbet this many time but they see chance to make quick btc.




Your so call fraud after nadal lose is already proven not true and people see your site not safe for large player


Directbet


1. This is all opinin and your biased.

2. I use a local exchange as told for quick btc. I am told to pay right after nadal win because on blockchain. I tell you this from day 1.

3. You never send an agreement so saying he not sign is not true bc you never send. My screenshot prove this. Agreement in btc is funny and mean nothing too but still you never send.  Also bet was make before event even start. You can tell by odds of bet URL and starting odd, also you claim after 1st set loss fraud send. So not live in play like you claim. You lie so many time and screenshot / odds / bet all show this.

4. Of course local exchange who english is not a skill not want to deal with you, they have they money. Deal with you is like pull teeth.  

5. They are my coin. I pay for and now you still not send agreement. I already post email screen show this.

6. I avoid posting original becuase as say not ideal address for send because much different now to send 3 weeks later.

7. Just since not log in for 24 hours does not mean guilty. Such bad logic.

8. Community agree you not as high mighty as you think you are, vote D by many senior people. You will lose big player  long run some have even message me.
