We've already talked in-depth about how the scam works in a previous announcement, but the scammers have since changed the site layout slightly, so I thought it'd be a good idea to make a new warning with updated photos.
How The Scam Works:
- The victim finds the casino through an advertisement on social media that features an enticing bonus endorsed by a famous celebrity.
- The victim joins the site, receives their bonus, and begins to play what they believe to be legitimate casino games.
- The casino software is privately hosted and altered to have extremely favorable RTP% - i.e. rigged in your favor. YOU WILL WIN if you play, probably a large amount of money. If you look at the screenshots I provided, you'll see I hit a 100x dice roll on the second roll after signing up, followed shortly after by a 1,000x max difficulty Plinko win. I've replicated this method many times in the past and routinely win $20,000k+ doing so. You can use temp-mail.org to create a throwaway email and try this strategy for yourself if you'd like.
- When you go to withdraw, you’ll be met with many hurdles. First you'll need to pay for a security check, then you'll need to pay to verify your wallet, then a third time to pass an AML check, a fourth time to resolve a tax error, a fifth time to resolve a security score error, and so on.
- After the casino receives all of your deposits, they will still provide excuses or just outright ban your account. No matter what you do, THEY WILL PROVIDE A REASON NOT TO PAY YOU. This Redditor actually got the AI support agent to reveal her script for withholding payments.
- The casino keeps your deposit. You were scammed.
Things To Note:
- These sites are NOT an official sponsor for Red Bull Racing, Crypto (.)com, Blockchain(.)com, Tesla, UFC, Werder Bremen, Philadeplhia 76ers, or the Argentine Football Association. This can all be easily fact-checked with a Google search.
- These sites are NOT official partners with Donal Trump, Elon Musk, Kylie Jenner, Mr. Beast or Drake. This can also be easily fact-checked with a Google search.
- They have not won any iGaming awards at the SiGMA awards. This can also be easily fact-checked with a Google search.
- These sites do NOT have 51+ million registered users. For reference, Draftkings and Fanduel, the two largest publicly traded gaming companies with NFL, NBA, MLB, ESPN, etc. network deals, don’t even have that amount of users. Stake, the largest crypto casino, doesn't even come close to the number of registered users that these scam casinos claim.
- These sites have NOT paid out $24+ billion in winnings. What an insane claim to even attempt to make.
- Check the WHOIS to view when any of these casinos were started. Nearly all of these casino URL's were purchased just days before being promoted online.
- Check the fake player feedback/reviews written on their own site. Some of the reviewers claim they've been playing exclusively on the 2 week old site for 3 years.
- The player avatars used by the site are the mascot from BC Game, named Coco.
- Look through old posts in this subreddit. Some identical sites in this network that were reported a few months ago are already offline or redirecting to random unrelated sites.
- These sites copy Stake’s Terms of Service word for word, but conveniently leave out the United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany and many other “wealthier” countries from their list of restricted countries.
- Some users on CasinoMeister are compiling a list of these scam websites. Go check it out and add more scam domains that you come across! There are hundreds listed already.
- Please use Google's Safe Browsing Tool to report any scammy looking casino to come across.
so stake.com is a scam?? sorry im just a little slow
No, Stake is not a scam. The sites that claim to have the same partnerships and sponsorships as Stake, but use a weird domain name that typically ends is -cas or -wex are scams though.
appreciate you!!
Stake is a scam...I can prove it on sumthin that occured just today
Stake.com doesn't need to scam anyone. They have the most degenerate gambling addicts I've ever seen They already are making millions each day. I've played a lot on stake(quit gambling altogether now) and it was fine. Had a lot of big wins and lost when I acted like a degenerate chasing losses.
the ones that end with -vax too

No, and same thing applies to Rainbet which uses the same layout. It applies to the websites who imitate it or even act as if they were the real stake
Hello everyone, irecently started playing at an online casino called Wishwin (wishwin1.com) I’ve made two withdrawals before — one for €300 and another for €500 — and both went through without any issues.
This time, I won around €3,000, but since the casino only allows withdrawals of €500 at a time, I requested one withdrawal of €500, then another €500 the following day, and another €500 the day after that. The casino allows up to three pending transactions at once, which is my current situation, so I haven’t requested more yet.
The first €500 withdrawal was requested about eight days ago, on October 20th, but I still haven’t received the money. I contacted the casino’s support team, and they told me that there are delays due to a high volume of withdrawal requests, and that their finance department is currently backed up.
Do you think this is normal, or is there a chance they won’t pay me?
Please help me, thank you
Location: Portugal
Definitely a scam
Not being scammed, their funding is tied up because users are winning more than the site is generating in revenue to support the withdrawal. You will get your funds just keep reminding them but don't be rude or pushy
there is no high volume. The casino has a small number of clients at a time that it is ripping off
As-tu réussi à récupérer ton argent ? J’ai même problème sur un casino en ligne
Lost your coin my guy
This post is for retards, who tf would deposit in order to withdraw
Also same rtp tactic real casinos like stake, roobet use to give streamers slightly better chances to win.
Streamer has to win, everyone under streamer code (his users) are sacrifice
I have been a victim of this, is there any way the bank can give back the funds out ami cooked
It doesn't hurt to ask them. Maybe you can do a chargeback or something if you used a credit card.
i won 2.5 mill lol
2.5mill
Lmfao that's way more than the stated max win, isn't it?

One of my friends got scammed from these fake casinos so all of you should be careful, even tho i dont think stake is a scam its better to make sure through platforms like casinoguru or smth
Thanks gawd for show me this post. Coz I about to make a deposit in a website called vetodex. I just wanna make sure this website is not a scam and I saw your post. But I can't able to delete my account if I want to delete my data they still ask me to deposit $60. Ahh!! Gawd fuck
What about "Lavish Luck Casino" app? It's hard to tell
Anyone got any ideas how to delete my account?
It's probably not possible honestly.
Do you know if there is negative affects of just having the account floating around?
As long as you didn't use the same password that you use for other sites or anything else for that matter you should be fine. Also if the email you used to sign up is one that you normally use for everyday things, banking etc. Be cautious because the scammers now have that email and can send you spam trying to keep scamming you, as well as sell off the email on a list with everyone's else's who signed up to other scammers.
Do not use 888 it’s a scam as well

estou na mesma situação alguma forma de me ajudarem ou nao da mesmo para contornar esta situação?
hi i jst log in with my email on that site should i worried about that i didnt deposit anything
You might get some junk mail in the future, but I think you're fine besides that. Just double check any links you click from your email of course, but that's something you should always be doing anyways.
Wym im up 1500 and have withdrawed many times
Ur lying

$500 to $41k this wild and u cant withdraw the ammount. They ask for $100 verification ony then u can withdraw. When ever u place any bet its 100% sure you will win
all of the blackjack games even the ones from "legitimate" sites are all rigged change my mind.
GLI labs verified means nothing

Just a simple copy cat of top crypto casinos, nothing special.
How to verify casino is good?
“1win blocked my account (ID 337418085) with USD 1,570 inside and refuses to show evidence. Be careful.”
Actually, I think the better plan is to do the exact opposite of what your are suggesting.
Once everyone sees that this is infact a scam and they should absolutely not deposit. I think everyone should go to the websites and sign up and use whatever bonus they give you just for fun play. Then proceed to message support and try to cash out and argue with them and try to make their lives as difficult as possible by acting like you dont know what is going on. Therefor they will keep interacting with you and answering your questions and trying too convince you and guide you through what you have to do, thus wasting their time,, frustrating them and loosing them money in the end while saving someone else they could ofo scammed.
If you really want to hurt them bad then do all of the above in addition to actually buying crypto to send to them. Just make sure you buy it ONLY on your credit card. Then dispute the charges with your institution. It will be as simple as sending your chat transcripts in to prove. The scam company will then lose the funds you sent, all the time involved with the dispute/chargeback and the kicker is every disputed charge comes with a chargeback fee that they will have to pay and it's a substantial amount of like $15-$20 a transaction.
Luckedbet and wintrack.io all exactly copy and paste site like that one🤣🤣🤣
Good PSA. The biggest red flags I look for are no proper licensing info, instant withdrawal promises, and those generic template designs. Always check for valid licensing from places like Malta or Curacao before depositing anything.
Scam, I’ve deposit 100us$ and they ask me for more. To good to be true. 2.5M$ on wins.
Do not try.
It’s a big big scam.
[deleted]
It's because that's what you won with the bonus money so that ties those wins into the bonus there for swallowing up a chunk of your money most casinos even real ones folllow that practice
What about roy.casino? Is this a scam?
Yes. It's a scam.
Sounds about right for scammers today
I love stake us . It has been good to me
YA THEY GOT ME FOR $100 BUCKS, THEY ARE VERY CONVINCING IVE WENT ON RUNS BEFORE JUST LIKE THEY MAKE YOU THINK YOUR ON A STREAK. BECAUSE THEY THROW A NICE BIT OF LOSSES IN THERE TO MAKE IT SEEM VERY REAL. I STILL WONDER THOUGH WHY THEY INVEST IN ALL THE SOFTWARE AND CAPABILITIES OF A LEGIT SITE TO ONLY GET $100 MAYBE $200 FROM A PLAYER AND THEN THAT PLAYER NEVER AGAIN AND SPREADS THE NEGATIVE WORD, IN ALL THE WHILE THEY COULD JUST BE LEGIT WITH A SLIGHTLY HIGHER *RTP IF THEY ARE CONTENT WITH MINIMAL GAIN PER SIGN UP. SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT IM MISSING?? OH DID TAKE THE TIME TO FILL OUT ALL THE PAPRWORK TO THE

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 thank you for this
🤣🤣🤣🤣 thank you for this
is spinhead.cc legit?
my network said its blocked for phishin
thank god you put thus post up, i was just about to ask about the exact same thing. i found it via instagram, no partners or anything just a sign up bonus with kyc verification of $50. i asked the support where to find their community as at the time i couldnt see any trace of it and asked to speak with other players as proof of winnings, suddenly i had to wait for 45 minutes watching that bubble that means typing just for it to say switching with another agent and still havent heard back
Exactly like that
They said my deposit got declined twice. Then they posed as my credit union about the blocked deposits. They really thought I would click on the link and sign in this "fake" credit union link. My actual credit union did block these two attempts. The deposit info didn't show wild casino it showed Vision Lab Store for one and Evoke Find Fashion for the second attempt. The info traces it back to countries GH and BH.
Ghana and Bahrain??
bcgame is a scam too they will block your account if you withdraw after you win from bonus funds and complete the 20x rollover
There is a good video about it too. Check it out! https://youtu.be/sOviQJe56-8?si=ye6_UNjhFphTfztq
Anyone know if Gambana.com is a scam or legit?
Just made a post myself about one of these clones^ “adingame.top” looks exactly like these with the 2500 bonus too
So the scam works when they try to make you deposit from your pocket.
But what if you try to withdraw the funds and type your debit card number on a form (they ask you this as a 1st step on gogamb.cc), then after they say "you could not be verified", then right after that you are prompted to make a deposit to them in order to withdraw?
I'm wondering as I'm about to call the bank and request a new plastic so the card y typed into the field becomes unusable (although I think this scam aims more the 1st world countries, as their people more involved on the crypto thing).

No api endpoint no good

Facts. The second you see “pay a fee to withdraw” it’s over. Legit sites don’t do that.
fr broo
Why can’t the mediums that allowed this to be advertised sued? Facebook or whoever.
Agreed. At some point someone needs to hold Facebook/Instagram accountable to some degree for this. Does no one in their advertising department check the websites they're letting run ads?

Lmaooo
How do these scammers afford the games? I heard these games cost alot of money and for them to invest big money just to scam people….
I fool around on these sites with the “welcome bonus” when I’m bored and don’t want to depo money, and it’s definitely a fake version of the game. Zeus vs Hades always drops 4 expanders on the first buy on the site, and sweet bonanza has super weird cluster patterns that you’d never see on the real game and just looks super weird.
The crash game also pauses once it hits a certain multiplier like 2.18x or something like that, then continues a few seconds later lol
Same here. I find better than playing the demo version lol 😂 😂 😂
these website not cost alot i am developer software engineer i case study this site and more there are local games i mean the orignal one using api service inside the game and they are using clone code and games are also local not a api one local one means like offline games like gta 5 without internet like they are hosting a site on vps where they took host and source code they bought a source code it was availeble on market like 3k when they got the source code you need just vps and domain that's it u can paste code on vps your site will alive all games also that's how this scammers are working
Hey you know how I can play online from NY is there a way to not show my current location. This sucks I want to play
