I'd like a clarification on how the deposit bonus is released. (Big thanks to support for being awesome and revising my deposit bonus that I screwed up by making 2 smaller deposits instead of 1 larger one)

From what I can see via random observations of my profile info and wallet it seems that the bonus is released into a players' wallet in increments of 4 chips (0.004 btc) every ~160 status points. However in your explanation page it says it is released in increments of 20 chips (0.02 btc) for every 45 status points.

I could be wrong but there seems to be a large discrepancy between the information provided and reality. I'm not complaining about how fast the bonus is released, I'm very grateful and it's a great promotion, however your information should be correct so you are not providing false promises or misleading players.

Thank you,

We certainly appreciate your message and are happy to have you.  The program works as follows and one of the key aspects is that they must be Betcoin ring games or tournaments.  

Make a deposit of 1 BTC and we will credit your account with a 1 BTC in bonus chips. There has never been a better time to play poker.

The match bonus is released by playing real Betcoin games and tournaments. For approximately every 45 Status Points you earn playing on bitcoin tables and tournaments, 0.02 btc will release from your Pending Bonus Bitcoin into your Real Bitcoin balance.

Please join us in live chat for further discussion anytime.  

Your response looks like a pre-written message chosen by a computer program. Did you just copy and paste those sentences from the URL I provided because it's your job to reply to bitcointalk posts? You really did not address my point. From my observations what you say about 45 Status Points = 0.02 btc bonus released is not correct. I released 0.1 btc after 3,800 Status Points. Something does not add up.

I don't mean to sound ornery but that was a very impersonal and ridiculous way to respond.

We appreciate the support.  Betcoin Poker's UncleChau finished in 4th place in the Big 10 100 BTC ($25,000) netting 7.8 BTC ($1,937.50) and providing a wealth of knowledge about how to play poker and win these tournaments in the process.  It was a great stream and very exciting to watch as well as interactive.

We are pleased to announce the Betcoin.ag VIP Player's Club providing you with the most rewards in the industry and a Daily SURPRISE BOX based on your level. Your rewards earn you many benefits at Betcoin and your play in the casino, sportsbook and poker room all increases your level. The VIP Player's Club can be found here: www.betcoin.ag/vip

The Levels

There are 19 VIP levels starting with Bronze III and ending with Master. Each level awards you with casino rewards which include lossback and betback, sports rewards which include lossback and betback and poker rewards which include rakeback and special tournament / promotion entry. BETBACK PAYS YOU BACK EVERYTIME YOU WAGER INSTANTLY!

How to Level Up
You level up by earning status points. Status points are earned in the casino and sportsbook with every bet placed. In the poker room status points are earned based on rake and the tournament fees. The amount of status points earned are as follows:

Casino 1 Chip Bet = 0.2 Status Points therefore 100 Chips Bet (0.1 btc) = 20 Status Points Earned

Sportsbook 1 Chip Bet = 0.1 Status Points therefore 100 Chips Bet (0.1 btc) = 10 Status Points Earned

Poker 1 Chip Rake = 6 Status Points therefore 100 Chips Raked (0.1 btc) = 600 Status Points

Rewards
Betcoin offers an industry leading amount of rewards based on your level in the VIP program including the following:

SURPRISE BOX - The Surprise Box is a random prize that a player is eligible to receive every day. The prize can be a number of things such as a Casino or Poker Bonus, Free Spins, Status Points, Betcoin Points and so on. To claim the prize a player must log into their Betcoin.ag account. The size of the prize depends on the VIP level and the higher the level the greater the prize.

Status Points - Status Points determine your VIP rewards level. Status Points are accumulative and do not reset ever. The more Status Points you earn the greater the rewards you will earn.

Betcoin Points - Betcoin Points are points that can be redeemed directly for chips or other great prizes. Betcoin Points are earned though various promotions and are used to pay out Rakeback in poker, Lossback in the sportsbook and Betback in the casino and sportsbook.

Rakeback - Rakeback is the amount of poker rake or poker tournament fees that the player gets credited back to their account. Rakeback is paid in the form of Betcoin Points.

Lossback - Lossback is the amount of losses the player gets credited back to their account in the casino and sportsbook. Lossback in the sportsbook is paid in the form of Betcoin Points. Lossback in the casino is paid through a Casino Bonus.

Betback - For every bet placed in the casino or sportsbook a percentage of that bet will be paid back to the player through a bonus in the casino and Betcoin Points in the sportsbook. The percentage paid back to the player is based in the VIP level. Betback applies to the casino and sportsbook only.

Casino Bonus - A Casino Bonus is a bonus that enables a player to play a select group of games for free. Each Casino Bonus usually has a minimum rollover requirement which must be met in order to receive the bonus chips.

Casino Free Spins - Free Spins in the casino allow a player to spin a designated slot machine for as many spins as they are awarded. Any winnings from the free spins are credited to the player's account.

Poker Tickets - Poker Tickets can be used to enter specific poker tournaments for free. 1 ticket gives a player free access to the designated tournament. A player can accumulate as many tickets as they want for a specific event and tickets can be used at any time for that specific event. You do not have to use the ticket the same day you receive it.

I am sure betcoin doesnt have anything to do with this issue.
If they wanted to just take all your money they would have bigger fishes to fry then just someone with 8 or 10 thousand usd in their account.
Also a very valid question.
How is this scammer able to take your money out in batches or go into your email to accept the transfer
Its either someone very close to you or someone with access to everything which can only be you.

Regardless betcoin shouldnt care about this as this is an external matter. If someone from thier company is doing this then its a different story but i hardly doubt that.

Good luck with busting the scam

LOL! This guys story is fishy in a dozen ways that all of you have pointed out. Let him handle it with support in private and not waste everyone's time with his tall tales in this thread. Guy is Bronze II rank yet keeps $8,000 in his account, has had problems with 3 betting sites in total, gets hacked by someone who doesn't steal all of the coins and doesn't choose to withdraw the coins immediately. This guy is either lying, up to something unsavory or incompetent. (Edit: okay maybe that last statement was a bit harsh, but as was said above: If you're getting hacked regularly for thousands of dollars you should probably take a look at how you're handling your financial security instead of getting flustered on obscure message boards.)

One thing that should be taken from this story though: Betcoin should require a confirmation e-mail for player-to-player transfers. Or require a confirmation e-mail for player-to-player transfers over a certain amount and an e-mail when more than x-number of transfers are placed in a day.  Requiring a password as suggested above wouldn't do anything if your account was already hacked, but a confirmation e-mail as is required for withdrawals would be useful. As long as you don't use the same password for e-mail and betcoin of course  Roll Eyes

More importantly, I think the owners need to ask themselves what I'm possibly trying to get out of this?  My only mistake was not noticing the 5.2 btc which were fraudulently transferred on 3-24.  When i logged in the account looked light but since i hadnt bet much since the SB, I wasnt sure.  Today I noticed it immediately because i had made two bets within 4 min my balance dropped 6 bitcoins and I did nothing to cause that.

Also, let me clarify, I wasnt even aware these account transfers were possible until today.  As anyone who plays at betcoin can attest to, the account history portion of the website is spotty at best.  They have changed their interface numerous times and it was never comprehensive until recently. 

This entire situation has left me frustrated. 

how did they confirm the cashout in your email? and why wouldnt they just take all the coins the first time kinda weird

My first thought is that you may have sold this individual chips (either for cash or for xfers on another site) and are trying to 'charge back' as it were.  But, if you are being truthful, it seems like you have a vulnerability.  As you have claimed that this has happened three times in a year and a half, it should be pretty evident to you that this is the case.  It may be a computer situation (someone put something on your computer a while back) or it may be a situation where someone in your home is accessing your computer behind your back.  I've seen situations where both have happened countless times in the online poker/sportsbetting community. 

If I were you, the first thing I would do is buy a secure computer to gamble with.  If you are gambling with five figure amounts, this is paramount.  Don't surf the web on it, don't download skype onto it, only use it to place your bets.

Stakebtc stole my money!

I read that entire thread and saw that.  Obviously that's horrible and I'm sorry that you lost those coins.  But I'm talking about the claim that you made while they were still "up". 


Quote
Nitrogen had a breach in their system which they acknowledged as i will post the emails here. 

That "email" you posted (screenshots are your friend) doesn't show acknowledgement of a problem on their end.  They said that someone logged into your account from a different IP.  That's the same thing you said happened on Stakebtc and the same thing you said happened here today.

Again, you've claimed that the exact same thing happened three different times across three different gambling sites over the past year and a half.  This is worrisome.  This shows, to me, either malicious activity on your part (which wouldn't make sense since it seems like you are/were just asking for bets/xfers back) or that your machine(s) are not as secure as you think.  This is a serious problem!

Seriously, what makes more sense?  That three different sites all have/had major massive security breaches that ONLY affected you...or that you have a keylogger on your computer/someone in your house makes bets while you are asleep/you get drunk and make bets and then wake up and say "shit I shouldn't have done that"?

Also, since you seem more open to answering questions now (this is good, it gets to the solution faster):

What have you been playing on betcoin?

Can you take a screenshot of the transfer history and post it here?

Have you ever logged into your account on any other device other than the one you are currently on?

You need to read the stakebtc thread.  THEY lied about the IP issue.  THEY made the bets, free rolled me and then went offline hours later.  You're correct, nitrogen never admitted they were directly at fault, but they acknowledged I didnt make the transfer request from the IP i normally use and their security team caught this and returned the funds.   My machine is as secure as the antivirus software tells me it is.  So now we're talking about two sites: nitrogen and betcoin.  Betcoin still hasnt stated the transfers originated from my IP.  As soon as nitrogen introduced 2FA i never had an issue. 

I never claimed I didnt make bets except in the case of stakebtc, which i never did. Again, they were a scam and went offline not even 12 hours later after those fake bets were made by them. 

I have been seldom playing on betcoin.  Since the suberbowl I have played some NBA here and there but thats it.  Yes, I believe I have logged into my account from my phone before and I from a hotel in las vegas.  I never had any issues though until right now. 

I just changed my password at betcoin.

I dont know what the transfer history is going to prove, but i'll try and post it.
