Takeaways:

— Channel creators don't care about you

This applies to the music bot as well. When it comes to safety, piracy has been a hit or miss. I personally would not risk it even with media files unless you don't have anything too important on the said device. Seeing how piracy websites typically have SUS AF advertisements, I'm not that surprised the bot links smth sus.

Another thing- cause thought I should mention. When it comes to subscriptions, I try to see if the platform has a family plan which I could share with friends and essentially pay less monthly. Perhaps that is something you wanna look into!

TBH, I am still not certain about the relationship between  1xbit and 1xbet here in the forum. 1xbet seems to be genuine site unlike scam 1xbit. I could be wrong also.
They are both apparently owned by the same company (1xCorp N.V.), with 1xBet being the parent brand and 1xBit the knock off. If they are related it is safe to assume that 1xBet is a scam as well which operates their scam activities through 1xBit


Could it be that the celebrities are not aware of their scam activities if they really scam.
Outside this forum you rarely hear talk of 1xBit being a scam and the link between them is not amplified, they pay review sites to whitewash their image.
AFAIK 1xBEt have not run a signature campaign here.

To correct something here, 1xbet is not a known scam here, I can't speak for everyone in their personal encounter with the but here its 1xbit that is notorious for scam, the fact that they took up the name 1xbit which is very alike with 1xbet is already a red flag.

TBH, I am still not certain about the relationship between  1xbit and 1xbet here in the forum. 1xbet seems to be genuine site unlike scam 1xbit. I could be wrong also. Why I seem to be confused is because I have seen many celebrities use their channels to promote and advertise 1xbet. Could it be that the celebrities are not aware of their scam activities if they really scam.
To clear my doubts, I want to ask if  1xbet had in the pass ran a signature campaign in this forum or even have an announcement thread
If yes, I will appreciate that someone send me the link, but if no, it could mean that 1xbet is distinct from 1xbit.

When you download files from a paradise for scammers like Telegram, you have big risk for malicious files, malwares which potentially infected your devices and steal sensitive information.

Settings > Advanced > Automatic media download. Turn off Files for In private chats, In groups, In channels.

Turn it off to reduce risk of automatic downloading files which are potentially hazardous.

This is more likely a paid channel since they don't care about those who joined the channel and since they also promoted 1xbit. I don't have any encounter with the site but 1xbit or 1xbet is known in this forum because there are lots of people who are complaining about the site and most of the complaints are 1xbet scamming their own money and didn't even get refunded or solved after contacting the customer support.

Many newbies make mistake by judging the authenticity of a telegram group by the number of members they have in their group that's a very big mistake because they can mostly consist of bots and more often than not those types of scam group are muted, meaning even if someone has been scammed they can say it out in the group.

Also you thought you may have been smart by knowing the promotional was a scam but what of the other chances of you getting hacked by using that bot to download your music. Be very careful about the tool you use on the internet many may contain malware, phishing links and even viruses.

It's usually very important as a person to exercise patience when engaging with online platforms. Some people becomes to greedy when the here about money doubling just like the one in your post which say invest 50$ and get 100$. All these are just schemes to lure you into investing at a very high risk. Before engaging with any platform whether you are a beginner or an expert it's very necessary to check out some few details about the platform. Do not fall for their tricks, as most of them now display payment proofs on their platform. Just do a quick review to be sure of what you are getting involved with.


Although I have made an edit on my profile after LDL's case, so I no longer use telegram and as such I don't think I'll be ever experience this telegram channel in Op.  

Just because one person fell for some stupid scam shouldn't be a reason for everyone to stop using telegram. As we all know even as telegram is used as a means for scamming, it also has been very helpful to a lot of people including us, users of this forum through Many good bot (the superbot notifier) and many other bots that has been useful. So I will just give one advise to all out there just be mindful of the thing you do on telegram.

Private premium channel shill, I thought why not give it a try. So we click and next moment I'm greeted with this personal message, shilling 1xbet which is notorious for being scammer here, and I was joined in" premium" channel where there were already 76k members, lol.


This is just a paid channel created by a user who is running his own online business; what else do you expect? They are out for business, and they see themselves as influencers, which means they want to be paid for whatever they do. When you, as a business owner, see that my channel is doing well, they will offer me a promotional offer, which I will gladly accept. After all, that's among the reasons why I created the channel in the first place, so this is nothing new to me. 1xbit can even go as far as advertising in Telegram's official channel with the right price being paid.

despite that, we wonder how and where 1xbit.com/1xbet.com gets new customers who fall for their scams.


No need to wonder, most of their money scammed from victims are usually used for advertisement, they are among the most advertised betting platform online currently since they are already largely known for their scamming behavior, they don't just stop by advertising on wallets, huge sites with traffic and other, they also uses celebrities in advertising their business, if you are the type that watch clips online you will see most of our Africa celebrities promote them with their promo code in their videos, and their are people who are called die hard fan's, those set of people always take anything their favorite celebrity posted and promoted so they will always have new customers, and it's not like they are not that smart, they always pay few of their other customers and victimize many which some people don't see it fully as scam.

After all, if they can buy and advertise on Mycelium wallet, what's stopping them from using the channel of those greedy creators who couldn't care less about what happens to their subscribers after they use the service that was promoted?

Although I have made an edit on my profile after LDL's case, so I no longer use telegram and as such I don't think I'll be ever experience this telegram channel in Op. Everyone who has heard the schemes of 1xbe(i)t.com should know what to do whenever they come across something like this.

I use this bot called deezload on telegram to download music, days ago, there was this promotion as you can see in image below.

Takeaways:

— Channel creators don't care about you

— They will show huge payouts and praises in their channels to allure you

— That 48 number remained as it is even after I clicked it, a popular scamming technique to make you do something fast.
