Topic: How Much do you Value your Privacy in Gambling? - page 3. (Read 900 times)

Privacy is something that I highly value and is actually one of my criteria when choosing a casino. So my answer would be it depends on the casino. If ever that this happens to me, the first thing that I will do is to check if the casino is reliable and credible, and if they have established trust with their customers. If not, then I will not have any second thoughts but to refuse this because I will not give up my privacy just for the sake of earning that kind of money. Even though that is an immense amount of money, I will not do it as there is no money that would amount of my privacy. Secondly, I am aware that KYC is needed in every transaction, but I don't think that there casinos that requires their customer to give their "private information" because I don't think this would be necessary at all. So, I think the best way is to know the casino first. This is just my opinion.

I totally agree with that, and I believe a lot of people would go for it, some might hesitate, but since the money involved is enough to make up your mind, anyone with their heart in the right place would not bother giving their personal details for the sake of a sum that can change their lives, even if it doesn't change one's life, it will at least make things easier for them because as you said, the times are difficult in any part of the world right now, everywhere!

As you said, even if the platform turns out to be a scam, later on, one can settle down without any regrets thinking that they have at least tried. If someone doesn't do it and refuses to take the money only for the sake of not sharing their personal documents and then hears that someone actually did withdraw a big sum from them, the regret will be unforgettable.

Yes thats right, doing thorough research about the casino before getting involved in gambling is a wise moved. Identifying casinos that suit your preferences and needs, including their flexibility in implementing KYC procedures, can help ensure a safe and enjoyable gambling experience. Some casinos do have more flexible KYC rules, which can accommodate your privacy and personal data security preferences.

However, regulatory regulations requiring casinos to request KYC remain in effect, and it is important to comply with applicable regulations in the region. Thus, it is important to find a casino that not only suits your gaming preference, but also complies with the rules and regulation imposed by the competent authorities.

Are we talking about $70,000? In my opinion it is a very large amount and I personally would be happy to carry out the KYC process as long as the money can be withdrawn. To be honest I don't like kyc but doing kyc with that much money is not something bad

I'm still an ordinary person and I think $70k is a lot of money to fight for so even though I don't really like KYC but for the sake of $70k it's not a problem for me. My idealism would be crushed by $70k 

We don’t know this exactly,because they can allow to make big win and scam at the end.The scam sites also allow to make big win and check at the end of kyc verification was compulsory at the end.Kepping the kyc compulsory doesn’t the problem,but it’s essential to accept the kyc after the submission.If the gambling site is scam,they first waste your time by approve of the kyc verification.Then they will ask to submit the kyc again and again by saying the kyc was not clear.At the end they will ban your account by saying the fake reason like,you had send the wrong kyc or the vpn was used by you on the playing of gamblig game.

I myself have said before that platforms should ask for KYC if they plan to do so before anyone can deposit money and not only ask for KYC once someone won something. But then again I wonder if someone is dealing with a platform that also intends to scam, what does it help when KYC is provided and approved beforehand? Does it even make a difference? If a platform approves KYC and there is a big win, firstly they could still say that their security department found that there is something missing or wrong with the documentation provided, and secondly they could just scam someone and come up with all kinds of reasons that are hard to counter, like some suspicious playing behavior and then they don't provide proof themselves, we know how they do it.

Online gambling and amusement require careful reading of terms and conditions. Everyone has seen it - me, you, and us. Sites hide KYC clauses, then bang! They strike unexpectedly. Like, "Hello? Not what I signed up for!" But guess what? You technically did...

I constantly say (and I mean this seriously) screenshot everything. Consider it an online golden rule. Screenshot untrustworthy sites. Still screenshot a trusted site! Because when you win big you want everything covered. Show them, "Hey, I've got the proof right here!"

The kicker: most people don't read. They don't. When things go wrong, they're astonished. The shame is real. You must be clever to protect your privacy and winnings. You must be proactive. Finding a platform without KYC when you win? Good luck! Extremely rare. Always watch out and be ready. That's key!

Yeah, that is my point. Before trusting a platform with my money I will look at their reputation and complete KYC if needed then go on further which will ease the misunderstanding between platform and user. I am not a big fan of reviews though but it helps in identifying the casino that farms their reputation with paid reviews which will be normally from bots and the legitimate ones with actual people writing the feedback.

I value my privacy as long as I know it's secure. For example, I don't mind handing over identity documents in order to play on gambling sites, however they better treat them with the highest security because otherwise your private information can be used in identity fraud against you. This is why I only feel comfortable handing over documents to the very biggest sites who would have the resources to put into such secure storage, otherwise their reputation could be wiped out along with the huge profits they make every year.

And this is the importance on reading up sites terms and conditions on which if they are really that having no KYC kind of term but having those side notes about having that having the full rights on asking one
then there's nothing you can do because they do have the rights on doing so on whatever they do like or when but usually it would really be talking about withdrawal period or moments but if you havent been able to
read up any KYC related kind of information then suddenly there's one on the time that they would be pointing for you to read on and then viola there's that info then it is really that surely be shady.
This is why it would really be that always important that you should really make out some screen shots if you are really that having no trust in the first place so that just in case that you've win something big
then you could really be able to show up some proofs that you havent been able to read something and that would bust them up but since majority of us doesnt really care on reading up sites terms and conditions
then for sure there's no choice for us to have at least some valid reasoning.

Showing no proofs about those kind of allegations or accusations would really be ending up on getting ignored which do really sucks. This is why if you do really value your privacy then
deal up with those platforms which you do know that they arent asking some KYC on the time that you do win big, but honestly finding one nowadays
is really not that easy anymore.Majority of them does have that kind of terms that they do have the rights on asking some verification anytime they want.

First of all no scam site will ever let you win a big amount. And if you transfer a huge amount like $70k from a site and it gets added to your balance. and if they demand Kyc from you to withdraw it then I don't think anyone will feel shy to do kyc at that time. as for me I always use reputable casinos and if I win a big amount there I never hesitate to kyc there. And one who is worried about kyc should not gamble. Because if you want to gamble regularly on a site you have to do kyc and those who don't gamble regularly can't win a big amount.

Because of the many fraudulent activities on the internet space, these online casinos always request for their members to fully summit their full details in other to keep records whenever there's a significant win. They do this for future security purposes and to be able to provide valid information of their users who through their websites made money incase the need for investigation of any kind happens.
To me, I don't think it's a big deal to provide them with these personal information after carefully researching about them and knowing fully well that they're a certified and registered online casinos.

So do I since would provably not trust those casino surprisingly ask us to do KYC even if they don't have any basis to do so or when they claim that they don't ask this like what they told on their thread. Even if I have money left on their platform still would not insist to do so since privacy is more important rather than getting those funds which we can still earn rather than trying to accept the risk that we maybe got an issue to come in future.

But its different story when a casino is transparent and ask this KYC at first since it can change every negative impression of people especially if they earned some good reputation on any site they are promoting especially here where reviews are legitimate given by many people.

I will any casino that provides you huge amount of money to claim without you doing an kyc or had any job done is considered a scam (anything that sounds too good to be true ) they just want your info so they can access.

I think we are alike. I have now qualms with presenting my Passport or Utility bill to the online casino so long as I check trust pilot and several other platforms when honest reviews are given. Even this forum is one of them.

Any online casino asking for these details are never going to be get it from me. They can have my winnings instead of me to devulge such sensitive personal details. I Amy even go as far as warning other gamblers to stay away from such a casino.

Research on the casino is also needed to find a casino that is suitable for us because of the many casinos, there are few casinos that we can use as a place to gamble and can be included in the list of casinos that we like. In determining a good casino for us, we also have to look at the KYC side of the casino because some casinos are flexible in implementing their KYC, so that is the kind of casino we are looking for. If we don't want to do KYC, we have to look for another casino even though it is difficult to find one because of regulations from the regulator, which require casinos to ask their customers to do KYC.

When playing gambling at online casinos, the comfort factor is the most important thing that we must be able to obtain. And that's why we can't follow other people's advice in choosing a casino because we really have to be able to find a casino that suits us. Remember to take your time gathering information about the casino to avoid making a mistake in choosing the casino.

Understanding your privacy concerns when it comes to gambling is important. A KYC process is often required by trusted casino to comply with the rules and regulation set by gambling authorities. However, it is also important to do thorough research before engaging in gambling at a casino, especially to ensure the security of your personal informations.

If you are not comfortable with the KYC process at a particular casino, choosing a casino that is trustworthy and has a good reputations in terms of data privacy and security could be a wise move. Choosing to engage in gambling in a place that offers better privacy protection can help maintain your safety and sense of security in your gambling activities. It is always important to prioritize the security your personal informations in all situation.

Well, it's a common process on any website, not just in casinos, to ask for KYC if you are going to withdraw money because how can they know where and whom they will send the money? But I understand your concern and worry. Maybe before depositing and playing on a website casino, make sure that it is legitimate. Do your assessment first, look for reviews to see if that website has a bad reputation when it comes to withdrawing money, and if not, then it is okay to provide your KYC to withdraw your money as it is the common process when it comes to withdrawal. especially if we are talking about a very huge amount of money. I personally agreed with KYC as long as the website itself is trustworthy, the website is secure, and they value the important impressions of their customers or players. So, in short, do your assessment first before playing on the website.

Even if it's an irrational and untrustworthy gambling website, I'd be willing to undergo KYC verification and hold a glimmer of hope that the money will indeed be transferred. $70k is a substantial sum for me, enough to secure a home in my local area and lay the foundation for starting a family.

For anyone unwilling to complete KYC for the prospect of receiving $70k, they might be overlooking the practicalities. We live in challenging economic times, and a substantial sum can significantly ease our path through life.

However, in the event that the process becomes unnecessarily complex, and the casino potentially engages in a scam, I can only resign myself to the fact that my personal data has already been shared.

On this forum, I believe many of us would gladly sacrifice our privacy to snag that $70k prize mentioned in the original post. It's a no-brainer; we're all in this for the big bucks, and it's already right within our reach. The only thing standing between us and claiming the rewards is complying with the KYC requirements. Who in their right mind would say no? That would be utterly crazy. Of course, we'd go the extra mile to secure that massive prize, even if the gambling site demands KYC documents from our entire family. I'm confident there are still gamblers who won't think twice about whether it's reasonable; they'd simply comply and follow every request to clinch that massive win.

Gosh, $70k is a substantial sum. I don't want to come across as insincere, but opportunities like this don't come knocking every day. I might even consider retiring from my job once I get my hands on that money; it's truly a life-changing event. Although there's a risk associated with submitting KYC documents, with that kind of reward on the line, I wouldn't hesitate to do exactly as they ask.
