I thought this thread explains how you don't become an addict. because many players become addicts because they are dumb.

Anyway, I agree too, that never play or use a large amount to gamble on gambling sites that you think that site are foreign to you

...

Never play a large amount on any gambling site, if you don't want to become addict ). If you win a big prize you'd likely want to repeat it. If you lose a lot, you may want to win back.

Play safe, with amount you can lose for entertainment purposes and that's will help you not addicted to gambling

Lol. That's right. It's foolish to bet on any site, new or old, with large amounts of money that you can't afford or an amount you'll probably need for more important things. Though gambling makes a fool out of many of us lol. You'll see many dumb decisions from normally logical people when they start to get themselves deep into gambling lol.

Funny

sometimes it is better to watch a football match rather than playing it... Most times when we are about to make such silly mistakes, our thinking faculty will be far from our being but either comes back when we have already taken such harmful action.

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.

It's unfortunate that your friend cannot even remember the name of the scam site when he should so he can warn other people, so they cannot do what they've done to your friend, the first thing your friend have done and to those who have been scammed is to report it immediately in this forum or any related forum and the most important thing is, not to forget the name.

Its not a big deal if he does not remember the scam site name. There is 1000s of them and you have to follow the above rules in order to prevent yourself from scam. If you just remember that this and that site are scam and should be avoided, it is likely that you might find another scam site and become victim of it. Just follow the above general rules and you will be safe 90% of the time.

I feel It’s not a big deal actually but it would have been nice if he took note of it, the essence of that is to prevent others from never visiting and at least having a bad review is another way to stop some people from repeating the same mistake. There are so many scam sites existing and following this rules is not 100% guarantee that one cannot fall victim, it sometimes happen by mistake, so the best is always to take note of the site when these happens and it can be reported.

These reason I always advise gamblers not to be too fast in gambling on a site but to ensure to make proper enquires on a site by reading reviews and at looking for people who has an experience with the site.

I would like to add one more point here which I think is the most important and many newbies get victim of it.

5. Do not get attracted / tempted to Deposits bonus / Referral bonus on the newly created gambling / betting sites.

Thank you for the additional point, I wouldn’t even go near an new site in the first place let alone, depositing my bonus, I have noticed that so many new gambling sites are scam, recently I fell for one and it was really painful, it looked really legit.

My advice, is if a site is not very familiar please run as far as you can from such site, because you have nowhere to make your complains when scammed. But for those sites that are famous especially more on the forum, you can easily read the reviews of fellow mates and know what people are saying about them.

Been scammed on a gambling site can be a very hurting experience, its better to play a game, have fun and lose than to watch the money just disappear into air without proper accountability.

Did he/she check the site before depositing money? well, it's very stupid when not checking an online site. We should know that gambling has a great risk, the same goes with the gambling site. It's normal to be dumb sometimes but when it's a money-related situation, you should be careful at it. You should spend it on important things that might help you in the future. Lastly, deposit a small amount of money on gambling, if you deposit a huge money, you'll get addicted and might lose it.

It's good if you ask about the level of trust of that site in this forum first or you can search review of that gambling site on Google

It's your friend fault then, randomly gamble on random gambling site from google and not searching or review first lol.

Talk to him, don't always trust whatever come from google result lol. It's not always safe, rip $200. There are so many online gambling, so be careful folks!

Correct, considering a lot of scams online nowadays, it's not advisable to gamble on any other sites without checking if it's legit or not. Maybe the friend is so trusting that he didn't think of anything else but to gamble only. It's surprising though that he can't remember the site when most of scammed people can't forget anything that ripped them off. Shocked

And as what I have said last time,I don’t know what comes to their mind to just check random sites and played to it when there are thousands of sites(or I am exaggerating lol) that offers legit gambling experiences here

This will serve as lesson to them that to not trust sites just that,and always keep in mind that gambling is the most scam place in crypto world

I think it is not the only most scammed place in the world because there are millions of such scam cases which just do not make it to the internet. In addition, this could really discourage the new guys in the industry to see that almost every second website for gambling will scam them. There are pretty good websites as well and I believe that we need to talk more often about them to let these so called Dumb Gamblers get over the air of confusion.

Sorry your friend is the one who is dumb here. Why would he choose to throw money a site he knows nothing about?? Like who even does such a thing?? I am not that stupid. I don't just jump on a search page and looking for any site that I can use for gambling when I already know that the Internet is filled with scammers and there are lots of websites that are owned by them. These days the level of scammers in the Internet is high and the number of fake websites are now more than the legit ones. So I cannot make such a mistake.

Let’s try not to be too fast at judging other peoples mistakes. Yes he made a mistake and had admitted but calling names is uncalled for. We all make mistakes especially in gambling, What if the friend is new to the game. My close friend also made this kind of mistake despite all I have taught him on gambling, there was nothing I could do than to keep on encouraging him. So many shits happen in gambling industry.

Too many scam sites by the day, we just have to be very vigilant.
Play on famous sites only, read reviews from those who have played on the sites and the best places to get these reviews are on this forum and at first play, it’s better to play with very small amount of money.

Obviously we all make this mistakes and we are here not only to earn but to learn as well, we should try to increase our skills about different games so that we will not lose, I know some people get in gambling but after that they use to follow other peoples instructions and other people’s ideas which is not good for sure so better make your own decision and don’t repeat mistakes or try to learn from other peoples experiences.

Its hard to get an accurate read on online casinos because there are a lot of shills across the internet. Even the so called reputable casinos have many scam accusations against them. The best thing to do if you like gambling is to try to put that money into risky investments instead of a casino, thats the smart play.

Actually that’s really rare and looks suspicious that if this really happens or not,because we have many gambling sites here,who’s legit and reliable than those random sites from internet

I will never do such thing for I know the risk of being gamblers and about lots of scammers in the internet

I don't find this to be real, because even when you search internet for a gambling website with cryptocurrency acceptance you'll get a list of gambling websites that have gained good reputation from the cryptocurrency users. I think he might have got scammed through some referral link which he could've received into his email.

This is SEO brother. You need to search things out with different terminologies. Check out Stake.com and you will be directed to so many options where you would be able to participate and gamble with your crypto. This is a small thing man, you need to be sharp like James Bond to be able to make thing happen in virtual world and maybe make money in crypto gambling.

We can’t assume is greed. Not everyone is greedy to lose money in gambling; at times it could be a mistake. It’s possible that his friend didn’t even take note of the site his opening or he just clicked on a site mistakenly. There are so many scam sites out there and I have been a victim, so I can tell that not all loses are due to greed, although I know perfectly that greed is a problem that causes most losses in gambling.

My suggestion is for everyone to always go through reviews before gambling on a site, don’t be too convinced that a site is genuine because of the bonus offers or whatsoever they have to offer. It is also important to be careful while browsing through the internet, to avoid clicking on wrong sites.

How can his friend not take note of a site opening, is he a newbie in gambling and what the smartness we preach here always is. It is very clearing this case that the young man was greedy and I can say this without mincing words that if we dig deep, we would always realize that of 1 to 10 scam issues that happens in gambling, there is always an atom of greed on the side of the player.

Let him that have ears hear, if anyone fails to go through reviews, check out familiar websites in gambling and do a proper research before gambling, they should be held responsible for their action and learn to put blames on themselves.

You are right greed is very dangerous for players but greedy gamblers will admit to this. I made a friend on this forum of recent and he shared his gambling experience with me, and how he lost over 4BTC to gambling, I was so amazed because judging from all the explanation, it was so obvious that he was greedy because there was an opportunity to stop.

Let’s not be too fast to put money into gambling. It is always good to read reviews and know the site very well. This is what I have been doing and I have really avoided been scammed. So any one that refuse to read reviews would not have any site to blame for been scammed.

What I normally do is to game with platform on the forum and go through their site review to know vif the gambling site is legit and not sc you. But most of the gambling you fi e on Google may not have any good review and reputation but you will never know until you get in to start noticing the scam activities from they platform.

I think I trust the reviews on the forum more than on Google search but I always look at reviews also. And I look at sites that have existed for long, it seems those sites are always better because most new sites are scam sites. In short there are just too many scam and I am even afraid of gambling sometimes. I have lost again to another site last week despite how careful I always play but then I understand its common with gambling.

With the increased number of scam gambling sites, the only thing gamblers should do is to be extremely smart and careful. It’s really terrible how much money gamblers are losing to scam sites on a daily basis.

Indeed. Don't be a dumb gambler and primarly avoid those mistakes:

Seven deadly sins of sports betting

Do you have some ideas with what we can expand that list? Is there something missing?

That list is completely exclusive. The forth sin which was listed as WRATH is one thing I never cease to emphasize on when teaching players on how to gamble. There is always an ideal mood to gamble and that is just when you are in a normal state of mind. Over joyousness can lead one to make mistakes in gambling. I read the story of a man that won over $100,000 from gambling, he was so excited that he tried going on another bet with the money and within a blink of an eye, he had lost it all.

The last line is everything; play with your heart and not your heart. Adding emotions to gambling is one of the greatest mistake any gambler would make, both happy moods and unhappy moods should be separated from gambling entirely.

I also read through the list and it is nice. I think the sin of LUST should always be our watchword in gambling. There are people that are always out of their mind ones they hear about gambling because they feel it is a place to gain all the joy in the world. This is more common with those who play for fun, they lost after the game that they no longer have control in gambling.

There is a saying that whatever has a beginning also has an end, its good to know when to put an end to the game. Gambling is very interesting obviously but it can be controlled, I have been doing this in gambling and I try to set a limit to playing my game.

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.

yes all your points are giving the the people who dumped the Gamblers into a different situation but gambling is also like the way of getting entertained and getting a little profit also so we cannot make the waste time in gambling it is also useful if you are doing it useful.
