People have been posting the last couple days about Betcoin and their scummy, fraudulent behavior.

And now we have this gem: http://www.digitaljournal.com/pr/1489274

This is just getting ridiculous... Come on Betcoin, only two days after we reveal that you ripped our verbatim Terms and Conditions from SatoshiDICE (not to mention stole all the other copy as well) and are proven to be faking bets on your own site and likely DDoSing your competitors, you pay for a press release titled, "Shift to Ethical Bitcoin Gaming - BetCoin ™ Leads the Charge Towards Responsible Gambling Adoption by Bitcoin Casinos"

The best part...

A recent phone conversation with Emily Flitter of Reuters confirmed that BetCoin ™ Dice and BetCoin ™ Circle are both working very hard to ensure full compliance to their terms and conditions, and the relevant legal regulations, and to guide their customers in the direction of responsible gaming, as BetCoin ™ aims to help educate its players as well as entertain them. A senior spokesman responded to Emily's concerns, "Some other bitcoin gambling sites unfortunately do not have terms and conditions

Betcoin copy and pasted SatoshiDICE's T&C's as their own, and then puts out that press release? Cheesy

BetCoin ™ is further securing their place at the top of the bitcoin online casino market, all the while continuing to promote responsible gaming and bitcoin education in general.

This is amazing Tongue

Responsible GAMBLING PROMOTING... WHAT... You can lose 100BTC in 10 seconds! (not sure that is promoting responsibility!)

Responsibility would be added by putting things like CAPTCHAs in so people respect their money more!

Betcoin has/had 5.49 bitcoin of mine (used for sports betting) and it has up and disappeared.

I have tried talking to customer support for over a week now and they are completely stonewalling me. This has to be a huge scam site. I've been on many Bitcoin Sportsbooks and never had an issue until this one with Betcoin. Maybe they will respond to a post on the forum as their customer support is basically non existent.

Stay away!

Maybe this post will at least get someones attention there...

can you provide proofs or screenshots. this is a pretty serious allegation against a well known trusted Bitcoin poker and casino room

This is amazing Tongue

The funny thing is they don't even own the trademark Betcoin and I think the actual owner are taking legal actions.

Khanatran is on 2 plus 2 a well known forum member who supports almost every online site. When he posted that betcoin was shady and to stay away I insta withdrew about 3 months ago or so. Pretty scummy in regard to their casino though I have never been one to patronize online casinos. Very unprofessional in grindabit forum where they have a thread. Looked so promising in the beginning turning out to be shady like almost all the bitcoin gambling sites other then swc.

his name is kahntrutahn on 2+2 and im pretty sure your talking about the wrong betcoin, this thread is about betcoin.tm

Thanks b!z and waqas. I would add casinobitco.in to the honest sportsbook category.

casinobitco.in is a legitimate sportsbook. Folks should not get the "TM" brand confused with the sports betting brand we will be publishing an article regarding betcoin"TM" soon enough for those interested in reaching out to the owners/investors of the particular brand.

Have they not paid anyone in the sportsbook? They've always paid me on time but would like to know of any other problems on the sportsbook side.

Betcoin Sports (4.2 star rating on Bitcoin Reviewer) is not affiliated with Betcoin.tm. They are a honest sportsbook company.

not only BetcoinSports Bitbook.biz,NiterogenSports and Bitcoinlivebets these all are very good and honest sites paying to there customers on time

C- now not sure what to say considering they once held that ultimate rating. Guess will consider further downgrade if more folks file complaints.

They are getting further downgraded this week.. This company has turned into a headache and extremely disappointed especially with the new management in place to fix past disputes we have on file. They however seem to be interested in more advertising opportunities.

Yep, it brought me here....
Priceless, but keep in mind, all marketing is good, even if its bad marketing.
What is the go with there provably fair algo's ? Dont they check out ?

It's provably fair still, but it's suspected that they're placing bets themselves, sometimes thousands of entries, so that they have more of an edge. At least that's what I deduced from this thread so far.
