Even if I trust a Casiono so well and they happen to be a web3 project I don't connect my wallet with funds to it, if they don't make provisions for account creation which I can generate and address and make my deposit. I usually create a separate new wallet rename it in line with that of the Casiono's name, then u fund the wallet with th exact amount I want to use under it's respective Blockchain, so that if anytime is to happen I won't lose completely but just what I was already willingly to lose on wagering if the game don't play to my favour.

This kind of scam has really been for years now from airdrops which will requires users to make such connection before the  carry out their promised withdrawal which never happens, onces one authorize it's wallet to the site, about 1-2 times confirmation everything is gone back then what was targeted is that exact network native token.. I don't really know what length this programmers have gone to now.

Once you click the casino name, it gives you the option to "connect your wallet" once you connect your wallet, your funds are 100% lost.
Isn't this is the way most web3 casino do their business? if this is what you are referring to connect on the casino, not the typical giving the whole seed or private keys.

I don't know how it is possible from technical side. But if the site is too suspicious, new registered domain, newly made site without any good reputation, no reviews in the internet, using or connecting your main wallet to it is the most stupid thing a person can do, that's why being knowledgeable is the only way to avoid them.

This is a very familiar scam in the crypto world but maybe relatively new in the gambling casinos. Usually the scammer will give you information about any airdrop or free money / tokens and ask you to connect your wallet. Once your wallet is connected, they will get hold of all your funds and your wallet will be emptied.

Similarly, many scam web 3.0 casinos may appear recently, and they will again ask you to connect your wallet. As soon as you connect it, the hackers will withdraw all your funds in it.

Solution

So the question arises what the solution for this is and how we will know if it is a scam web 3.0 casino or not?

Well, as a precautionary measure, do not connect our main wallet (which has funds) with these casinos. Make a new wallet, deposit only a few dollars with which you want to play, and connect that wallet with casino. In this case, even if the casino scams, you will only lose very little amount.

3) He is self-moderating the thread

Just don't post in any self-moderated thread unless you really trust the user that created the topic. Whenever I enter a self-moderated topic, I immediately close that tab because I know that the OP would delete any posts he don't like. Maybe he won't like what I am going to say and delete my posts too... then why would I risk my precious time on that? I am posting my message so people can read it. If somebody can delete it because he/she can without a reason, then it doesn't make sense to make that post in the first place.

Hey!

So this guy started a thread requesting "help" with bumping his so-called withdrawal!

https://i.imgur.com/1GoolWa.png

Not providing TX-ID or anything.

1) He finds a reply of a big win
2) He advertises the "casino name" in the thread
3) He is self-moderating the thread

A simple click bait scam.

I warned others, my reply got removed and thread has been closed.

Although I couldn't read the text in your image, but I came across a scam accusation thread about the guy in your post and I guess that's the reason for that accusation thread.
The fact that the thread was made to be self-moderated is a red flag and connecting to a website provided by a random online stranger is a mistake that rookie makes, or if you ever want to connect your wallet to a site you know nothing about then create a new wallet address and use it.
I'll have to search for the post on archive so that I can take note of the casino's link so that I can avoid been scammed or phished with it. Btw, thank you for this awareness.

A good warning my friend, you have helped many people from this thread, always prioritize security for beginners and newcomers because of course they are the main targets of these scammers, always warn to be careful when connecting wallets to dangerous sites and always make sure the casino the official and already well-known in this forum is also trusted.  Wink

Thank you friends for creating a thread to provide information and warnings to all forum members so they don't become victims of fraud committed by some fraudsters.
Cases of fraud like that happen a lot and usually the victims are new forum members or novice gamblers.
This type of fraud has been around for a long time and is no longer an open secret.
With more and more people willing to care and provide information like this, hopefully in the future there will be no more fraud cases that occur.

Thank you for the warning. It's not advisable to connect your wallet to a gambling site, especially if the site does not have a good reputation in the gambling world. Scammers are everywhere, but with proper education on possible scams, we can prevent ourselves from losing money. Thank you to the OP for caring for the community. We need people who are willing to help without expecting anything in return.

Typical scam technique. Scammers are doing it from years. People are even stupid to give their private key /seed phrase.

and I hope that newbie will be aware on this new scam scheme.
To create such a website can cost $1,500 to $2,000. With these methods I am sure they make way more money then they invest. Unfortunately all these new people in the space falls the victim for it. There is another popular one which is to deposit money before withdrawing your winning.

There is one already: Itchy.eth Attempted Phishing. The scammer's topic is removed, but what I don't get is I can't find it in modlog.

This topic is more suitable on scam accusation or beginners and help thread. This is about scam that just use gambling to phishing someone wallet and not a related at all on gambling discussion or casino that scam user.

Besides bumping a transaction that requires to connect the wallet on the link OP provided is very shady at all. Thanks for sharing and I hope that newbie will be aware on this new scam scheme.
