Read previous players' comments on some of the gambling forums and you will soon learn if it is a scam or not. If many people are complaining about being ripped off or taken for a ride, then the chances are that the site is a scam.
It is the basic way to determined if the site is a scam but I know some of the gamblers are lazy to read those kind of feedback. We should always be aware that there are plenty of gambling sites and if you going to be lazy to do some research you will end up on encountering scam site. Never be a victim of a scam sites that's why always put some of your time to read some feedbacks and if you going to play gambling make sure you only play in trusted and reputable gambling site.
Most if the time to gamblers forget about this, playing inside the house without reviewing or researching how the site are facilitating. Those gamblers who are just aiming for a good sets of rewards coming from attractive welcome bonuses or leader board competitions. If you want to be more safer and not to be victimized knowing all important information regarding to the house is a must.

Hmm, so first you gotta check if it's provably fair or not. If they are claiming they are probably fair, you gotta make sure you are able to change the client seed, and you are able to reveal server seed after changing server hash and verify every bet you may wish to. If anything seems fishy ask the support or the community.

I wonder how you do your research if a gambling site is scam or not?
Sometimes your not going to know if the scam is a scam if you are not going to try to play it because a lot of gambling websites are most like to be legitimate at first and then suddenly become a big scam after a few months of operation since they already have a lot of users in their websites a few times of scams will not totally affect the websites.

Most likely gambling websites don't just straightly scam users in my experience it is all about gaining a lot of users in the websites if they attract a lot of users to play it would be enough to circulate the funds in the websites to make it operate but sometimes it doesn't get a lot and it up in bankrupt then the websites tend to just scam the remaining users in the websites.
Yes no one know if the site is good or scamming one specially when it's new for you. That's why not to trust blindly and the one thing scamming projects avoid giving details and will show you green garden with fake promises. So we should keep our eyes and mind open while trusting any gambling site and before investing our money better make satisfying research.

I wonder how you do your research if a gambling site is scam or not?

I feel you just come to know if the site is a scam.  A fake site will offer unbelievable deals and would have lot of display ads, that too irrelevant at times. Also , the pricing policies and ROI offered would be too good to accept..to know if the site is scam , maybe play with a small amount and take out your winnings asap . If it comes in time and properly , that means the site is good to play else just leave that site.
Things like these are some red flags that scam sites share but I think a lot of it comes to experience and history. A well established gambling site is well known, there have been multiple large payout winners without issue and they are able to show rates. These are the sites that won't up and vanish with your funds.
right, just look at the promised gains. If they are too big, it's a scam. Remember that you can't make a fortune for free

It is not always the case if a fake site is advertising and displaying lots of ads. Ads isn't directly proportional to the possibility of a site to be a scam. But I would rather believe that a scam site do really promise a huge ROI that in my opinion, is their way of attracting victims to fall in to their hands. To add, scam sites or gambling platforms normally doesn't conduct huge step in their marketing or advertisement.

Better choose trustworthy and well-known sites only make research while investing your money in gambling. A project that has more gamblers must be a good one and if it’s not having any good reputation in the market we should avoid it.
I think if you are searching here in the forum you will see that there are a bunch of gambling platform that seems to be trusted.
In choosing the right one, on the gambling platform that has a signature campaign in the forum. One thing that I am sure, that is legit and already build trust. However, I eventually ignore a newly launched gambling site because usually of them are getting scam and that is a part of the business sector.

It's just a feeling, I guess. If you have a nose for this, then you know what's in this biz and with what things you have to be careful.

The research, reputation, the entirety of it. I absolutely wouldn't give any of my money to some site that seems suspicious.
We have to be careful in this kind of decision people should keep eyes open while gambling many sites are scamming and they take advantage of your unawareness.

You should be the one who will manage your risk and you should also have common sense. Nevertheless, I can recommend that this forum is very helpful in finding the scam gambling site. And test a small amount that you can afford so that you will know.

At the very least you could seek counsel from other people with regards to the genuineness of a gambling site. It's not that this forum is helpful in finding it out, actually, there are more fraudulent activities in this forum than you can find a legitimate one. It's a matter of being "aware" if that makes sense.
Yes this is good to find the real and trust worthy site by your own if you will try to ask from other people and use any certain forum to learn or find any gambling site then it may harm you. So better explore Google and find one for your self. Contact in chat room of that site and ask people about the worth and importance of that project but research matters alot.

It usually comes from reviews and experiences from other players, if they have a scam report in the scam section and they are not addressing it , then we can easily tell that the gambling site is a scam, so it's better to search for the latest reviews before playing in that casino.

Usually, they will not scam people because they want to get more members who will play in their gambling site. But as time goes by, they can change their attitude to give the best services to their members, and in the end, they will run away with the member's money. Yes, we can find the reviews by reading page by page in their ANN, and we can ask something that we don't know. You can ask about your problem if someday you got a problem with their site.

A gambling site which is well established do not scam because the money which they can gain in a single time is very less as compare to the money which they can gain through proper running of their site / gambling business. If the owner of the site still scam, then there must be some other reason, maybe he need to close the business.

It depends on who is giving the comments or giving the review or feedback. There are people out there who are paid to give positive reviews to sites even when the site does not deserve such positive review. Some site owner would even go to the distance of creating multiple accounts in a forum just create a buzz or hype but in reality they are just talking among themselves. To be safe, go with sites that are operating for quite sometime and site should have no problem in withdrawing funds, just like when people deposit funds.
Not all the comments or the feedback is legit becuse there is really possibility that those comments is from the team of the gambling sites so if the gambling player see the positive comments they will play but if we know the player or the person we can ask question direvtly to them of what they think to the gambling sites  if it's scam or legit but depends to you on what do you think.

Community forums and review sites can be primary source of information to see if the site is authentic. Also , most of the times you can just tell if the site is a scam. A scam site might offer you out of the box deals , can have lot of irrelavant display ads and also no details about the developers and promoters. Even if you end up not knowing the site , try betting a little amount and withdraw as soon as you win. If you get the amount in time and peace , you can consider that site as not a scam and you are good to go.

Good points, because not all comments are honest comment, not all review are legit review. There are many examples of fake review created by shill accounts, there are also some paid reviews. Would be better if the review comes with some valid proofs instead of just comments with no proofs at all.

A good strategy if what you are trying to do is to find out if a particular bitcoin casino is legitimate or not is to look around the forum and see the opinion the majority of the users have about it.

It is obvious there are going to be some players not happy with the casino for some reason or another but if the majority of the members of the forum which have a good reputation think a casino is legitimate then that could be an indicator for you to decide to gamble in that casino.

Sometimes you just know and see if a site is a scam. There are many of them.

but what I am seeing a lot lately is that lot of new project get labeled as scam when they launch. but honestly every new project needs to get a fair chance to get their project into business. But I agree that projects can do as much as possible to build trust.

· If doing a giveaway they need to deliver proof of funds held
· Giveaway some freebie money for people to try out
· Try to attract a familiar name to the brand. for example a poker room can attract a famous brand ambassador
· Close deals with big name brands

In my opinion when I see a new project that is willing to spend money on advertising and on giveaways right from the start than they mostly have good intentions. Scammers are not giving away or spending thousands of dollar to scam. A scam project tries to launch with a less resources as possible.
