I dont understand how he forgot the name of the website, where he put his money. Im sorry but I have to say he is too dumb in terms of investment, and he wants to gamble? Thats a complete disaster. He'll end up on the streets if he keep on doing that. Anyway, there are a lot of trusted gambling website, why would someone choose to put their money in a newly created website? I feel sorry for him btw.
Like his friend has said, maybe he is too rich that losing money is notting . Imagine op saying $200 "is a bit small" that means to them remembering of the website or the gambling site is notting.  If someone scam you and you what to open a thread like this it good you asked your friend to Check his broswer history as he can get everything there.
It’s not about been so rich but about a guy that has a nonchalant attitude and that’s the worst kind of attitude for gambling. How can a man lose $200 no matter how rich he is and cannot remember the name of the site, at least if the money is small to him, the information would be important to safe other players. Taking such information spuriously is a high level of carelessness and this is what makes people.

There are so many reputable sites here on BF and anyone familiar with this forum is not expected to make such mistake because information’s regarding gambling are always here and I don’t see any reason why we have to carry out a research on Google before playing a game.

Scam sites are scattered everywhere here in the world of internet and just like what the OP has mentioned avoid to click some random links that looks suspicious and unfamiliar. Think before you click, and remember that just use a small amount of fund for your first try to avoid losing a losing all of your money. Besides, you can ask for some tips here in the forum on where to play or maybe you could look here in this forum because actually there's quite a lot of casino in here, for example, Vegascasino where I used to play, don't worry it is a reliable one. In fact, it has live dealers so you can sure that there will be no anomaly in here and just like most of the players want which is bonuses is quite a lot.
I'm actually new into online gambling, I always remind myself in every actions that I make especially when it comes into a place to play because I don't want to experience losing money again just because of those scam sites. I definitely agree with you since sometimes we need some guidance luckily, there are different information that can help us here. Well one of my friend suggested that bitcoin casino, since i'm not familiar with it I decided to look and research about it. Its great because it offers different gaming games like poker, slots, blackjack and roulette, aside from that they will never fail your expectation with free bonuses. It is actually one of the criteria that i'm looking for and i'm glad because I was able to find the bitcoin casino for me. Some of you may think that it was easy though it is definitely not especially for us who is new in this kind of thing. As new in online gambling, I always make some time and effort to learn some different things and strategies.
If you really don't want to experienced to lose a lot of money you should be really avoid clicking on unusual sites, especially for those fake advertisement that you always seeing at the internet because they may hack you and steal all of your funds in your wallet, that is why i always read reviews on gambling sites that first saw for me to know if the gambling site is legitimate or can be trusted. Anyways, Vegascasino.io is really a legitimate site and trustworthy site because it has great features, so that every users will be convenient in using their site like fast payouts, user-friendly, outstanding bonuses, hundreds of casino games, great supports, and it has a live casino that will give great gambling experience.

Well that is pretty dumb but usually it's a common mistake made by curious newbies. Though i'm pretty sure that at this day and age, where scams, frauds and hackings are quite common, a person would be extra wary in depositing even a small amount in a site he just found out. If he really intended to gamble with crypto, first thing he should've done would be to ask around for reliable sites. With the number of threads and discussions all over the internet, it's not going to be hard to get information.

Did he put 200 dollars in a site he doesn't even know the name? Or his computer was invaded? Crypto space is too dangerous, especially if you are randomly searching for crypto sites on google, there is all the kinds of scams there.
Besides checking a site reputation on this forum, check for feedbacks in other places too, also there are many monitoring sites to check other sites legitimacy.

Probably his friends mind is invaded by greed.  Scam sites often times offer a too good to be true deal.  Like depositing x amount of money then giving it a bonus of y times the amount and just need a few times roll and he can withdraw his money including the bonus.  Review does not work that much since mostly scam sites are prefer for this.  They will get their accomplice to put a deceiving perfect review on their website and praise that scam gambling site.

I agree to check the review on other platform not just that websites platform because it will be full of censorship for sure.

Thats  always the problem, but they would never admit to this. Once it happens they start finding ways to twist the story around. Most gamblers are always intrigued when they see that a site can offer very huge bonuses, they do not care to know if the site is scam or not. Sometimes they are just cool with the reviews they would have probably read on the site without even having a second thought that there is possibility of the site paying people to drop reviews on their site.

I am in support of checking reviews on every available sites to know more of the site but more preferably it is always better to play on well known and old casino sites.

The fault was totally belongs to your friend why playing at the casinos which don't have reputation and when decide to play at the particular casinos it should not be done with rush because research is necessary to ensure playing at legit casinos and don't ever tempting for big bonus if the casinos which offering those bonus brand newbie of have no reputation because possibly they will attempts to scamming people
I beg to disagree because one can have its own decision and should never blame anybody on your decision. It is you or one who made the decision even if a friend influence but it is you will going to make the final.decision.

Before I do blame other for the decision in which being influence with friends but I realize that it is not them that has the problem and instead it is the one who made the final decision (Yourself).

I appreciate that you have given us such warnings. $200 is not too small especially for those who are working so hard just to get that amount. Well, we just can't trust any gambling sites particularly with those websites that just got on the internet. Also, it is my natural move to withdraw my profits right away and wouldn't let my fund and capital to just leave it in a gambling site.

1. Dont click and browse non recognized site to avoid phishing.

Being cautious costs less than not being aware at all. Dont let our greediness and dumbness takes over our financial life. Be safe people.

What if the site is an ad proposed site? I am clicking ad sites most of  the time as I am watching movies, anime, and other video clips. It directly bring you to the site whenever you click the play button? I am not aware of this and just leave it alone and continue on the process. Sometimes we just forget to put our security first, I mean it and it is my bad, the good thing is I still haven't been phished with my current activities so I am good for now.

Googling isn't even a good way to source for trusted sites. He should have at least gone through the site review on reputable review sites..
Bitcointalk would have been best for him but not everyone knows about the forum
The best way to get a trusted gambling site to me is through this forum.  We are seeing many comments and review about any online gambling here than any reviews sites online.  I will encourage us to always see what people are saying here about a particular sites a review also.

Forum is a legitimate way to get the sites reviews and advices as well which will help in Knowing the  difference between the trusted and non trusted sites and also helps in staying away from scam and other issues which Can impact you

I don't get why people would choose to play on some new shady sites instead of choosing one of many well known casinos with trusted reviews and active staff? Those who do are probably new not only to gambling but also to cryptocurrencies and fall victim to scams like cloud mining clients and people who buy trading tips from youtubers Wink

It's not about not being a stupid gambler. The key is to not be stupid in life. If you are stupid online you will sooner or later lose money buying into a scam and it doesn't have to be a casino.

Wait, what!! he can't recall the name? Anyways was he using any form of privacy browsing protocol like incognito or something because he needs to check his browser history to find those scammers. It may even help the whole community at large since that website could be tagged red.
This is one of the reasons we're being always advised to be careful the kind of websites we visit in crypto.... Sorry to your friend anyways!!

I am curious, did he really got scammed? Or did he just forget which site he put the money and now cannot retrieve it? It is almost impossible to forget a site which you placed 200$. He should have bookmarked it at least.

If he is still looking for a good gambling site, he can try the link in my signature.

We that awareness already and I've never think that we might still be fooled again. Scammers are around us, looking for their prey and we've wanting that anyone could be fall into their hands again.
Try to dig deeper about their team, this is to know of what would be their intention and we can avoid from being scammed.

My friend recently get scammed by a gambling site which he found by continuously browsing. On internet.
It should be a good idea to tell your friend to install an adblocker  at this point as it looks like he followed a bogus site

Sorry but even he cant remember the name so i cant tell you but here's what you wouldnt do. He said he was searching about how cryptocurrency gambling work. He is much aware about bitcoin but not about using it for gambling. He find some "yellow botton" he said which offers gambling for newbies and the rest is history. Goodbye $200 . yes thats kinda bit small but should you wait that it happened to you with a bigger amount? Here's what you would do.
1. Dont click and browse non recognized site to avoid phishing.
 
Wouldn't agree more but another solution would be using a good web browser..Some web browsers like yandex usually warn of any possible phishing potential from websites which could save you from this loss.

Being cautious costs less than not being aware at all. Dont let our greediness and dumbness takes over our financial life. Be safe people.

1. Dont click and browse non recognized site to avoid phishing.
2.. Always ask first the people on this forum whether the site is legit or not.
3. Dont put too much money on that site so if ever its really a scam, the amount it can get is minimal.
4. If it looks really legit, try some few games with few bets at first.

Being cautious costs less than not being aware at all. Dont let our greediness and dumbness takes over our financial life. Be safe people.
It was your friend's fault because he didn't recognize more about gambling sites, I just regretted that with so many blind people like that by going to fraudulent sites, maybe by doing research first or looking for good gambling site references in the forum this and it's clear that you provide knowledge and others, so be careful, don't try it in gambling, select sites that clearly exist.

I am not a dumb gambler by any means which is why I dont lose very much money with this form of entertainment.
I consider a dumb gambler a person who gambles daily on anything they can get their hands on.
Regarding your friend who doesnt remember which site he lost his money at make sure next time he you do your research.
There are way too many scam sites in this area thats its worth your extra time to make sure its a legit site.
