My friend recently get scammed by a gambling site which he found by continuously browsing. On internet. 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.
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.

How ignorant is your friend, he got scammed yet he can remember the site? If this is true then he can still be scammed in the future because of his ignorance.

If he is aware of bitcoin, then why is it still looking for gambling sites out there that are not necessarily true or scam. At least if he is aware of bitcoin then he realizes there is bitcoin gambling which is indeed widely available here. After all, clicking carelessly the link will only allow you to go deeper into a phishing site and I have left things like this for a long time with caution and not carelessly clicking on any link and it's obviously dangerous.

I'm also concerned about what happened to your friend. However, it happened because of the mistake of your friend who was not careful when visiting a gambling site.

Gambling is a very risky game and many people take advantage of gambling games to commit various frauds in order to gain profit from their victims.

Careful attitude must always be instilled by gamblers. In this forum, too many people have reported various scam gambling sites. It would be wiser if we play on a gambling site to see the reputation of the site first and you can find references to trusted gambling sites especially those that accept bitcoin gambling in this forum.
This forum is indeed the best place to seek out some advises if you do find something new site to play on but i would rather choose or search up which most people do support when it comes to gambling.
Lots of them actually and lots of options to choose on but there are really some instances which are inevitable due to lack of knowledge plus some sort of being sensible into these situations.

It's a real nightmare and sorry to hear that situation faced by your friend.

You may research some what about gambling and best gambling sites on this forum before gambling as per the results. Gambling is the path to earn or loose money just an entertainment factor that's it.
Even that also you need to stay alert before investing on gambling.

lol it's your friend's fault , he got scammed by a website and he can't even remember its name  Cheesy how ignorant can someone be !!
as long as you are playing with the trusted sites here in the forum you should be fine even if you deposit thousands of dollars
We don't know if hes being scammed totally yet forgetting the site which do scams you is really impossible yet this would tied up on your
mind for sometime which basically remembering the name of it.Its impossible to think to forget it directly.Am I right?
Asking out first into the community wont really cost an arm and leg but people do still fail on following this basic thing.
Yes it is true it is hard to believe that OP's friend doesn't remember the site.
And OP if your friend really like to gamble why not show him the trusted sites there are already plenty of trusted gambling sites.
And if you browse Bitcoin Gambling on a browser the first page would show the old and trusted gambling site so how could he click a scam site?
Since he had mentioned that his friend do make up a search and op isnt aware for that searching of gambling sites.Making google search
without having some sort of verification or feedback from community will really possibly get you on trouble.We've known lots of either phishing
or untrusted sites which would result into stolen of funds.

I believe that the first bullet point covers all the above.
Every gambler should be cautious and play only on websites that are known and there are written reviews here in bitcointalk with user experience from other gamblers. Otherwise, it is very risky to gamble your money there.

New gambling sites are always risky. I always play majority of gambling games on trusted gambling sites. Even sometime i need to play on new gambling site, i spend only limited funds there. This way even if the new gambling site try to scam, i will not lose much of my funds.
Using old and trusted gambling site is always better than trying new and untrusted site, that's the very reason newbies always been the target
of this phishing sites, giving lots of  attracting offers, OP's friends will learned things in the hard way, make sure to follow opinions
of those experienced gamblers to avoid this things to happen.

I agree with all the said points but the quoted one. Most of the so-called trusted gambling sites will operate normally when you play small amounts and win small. The problem starts once you start depositing huge bankrolls or request a withdrawal of a high volume win. That is when they start introducing KYC and other security checks on your accounts. Most of the time it is to scam the money from you. Due to this, play on gambling sites which are known for instant deposit and withdrawals for a very long time.

We can find the scam gambling sites even by entering into their sites,they will have shit user interface and also fake chat rooms the comments will get repeated mostly so anyone who don't even see this on a site deserved to be scammed.

Why not remember the site? Ask your friends again there must be in browsing history and its useful for us, that we do not want to deal with scammed and they must be fought. Don't look for sites that have no reputation, search in the gambling section there are many popular sites and officially not scam.

Your friend made a very big mistake how can you trust a random gambling site's which you found on the internet, most of the gambling site's that offer online casino with bitcoin have an official thread on bitcointalk and before you play games on the site always read users feedbacks and reviews on the thread from there you can figure out if it legit or scam. He just have to say goodbye to the $200 deposit he lost.

Before making any move in regards to depositing your money, best to review first as there's a lots of phishing site who do promises that can hook you up, no one can be blamed about what happened but it's always the users obligation to do deep research before you sending money.

If anything, your friend should learn from this mistake to look for reviews from members of this forum about crypto casinos before depositing money on any of ‘em. It definitely sucks that he lost money, but everybody occasionally makes mistakes. The important thing is you learn from them so you don’t make the same mistake again.

Negative trust on an account representing a casino on this forum is usually a good sign that the casino in question is not legit. Your friend should also be reading the most recent few posts on any threads relating to the casino to determine if it’s legit or not.

This is being scammed because of being naive and not thinking before acting.If your friend is scammed from a crypto casino is only his fault, we all know that crypto transactions are irreversible and can scam easier than Fiat casino can.

He should have asked for reviews if he didn't know this forum and if he did know this forum is only his fault twice.

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.

Being scammed after you invest your efforts and money really is a pain. I agree that we should be suspicious and more wise when it comes to choosing the right cryptocasino you can invest to. And I also like the fact that you should invest a little first instead of putting a large amount before playing. Good thing the crypto casino my friend recommended me is a legit one. Of course, even if it was recommended by a friend, I still did my homework and research about in especially on forums like this. It was such a big help. And when I finally decided to try, I only deposited the minimum amount needed in order to play. I was so glad that everything turned out right even after playing more games from their 300 different games. Just as what mentioned above, this gaming site offers live casino. I especially love this feature of them because there's a real dealer for a fair game and real players and not just programmed.

Not really sure what the Yellow button is but I can't figure out how your friend forgot where he deposited the bitcoins. Even in incognito mode didn't he have to register on the site and verify his email address or something? You usually receive a link to your email that you have to click on to verify your account or a welcome message of some sort.

After i post this topic i ask my friend if he could check his browser history. He then tell me that he was browsing illegally in his office, Its still office hours and its prohibited thats why he uses the incognito tab. He then said he remembered one word which is dice and the color of the button is yellow. Im sorry i cant tell the site but neither i didnt know. Im just telling this to be a lesson so that future first time gamblers wont do the mistake again.
Lol, the moral of the story is "Don't gamble while working" Smiley. He can't concentrate on the things that he want to do as it is not his property. If you gamble you've got to focus and not just click anything and better to do it at home where you have peace of mind (away from stress of work).

Oh, so this is why he forgot the site's name. Well, it's really his fault to begin with. Maybe he should just focused on doing his job so that this didn't have to happen. And for me, $200 is a large amount of money already. It's greater than the minimum wage here in our country. I don't think I can handle such loss especially that I don't earn big. Anyway, talking to him about what he should do next time he tries gambling online will be a good first move. But I bet you've already done that and I hope he learned his lesson. As for us, we will be more precautious as well.
