How do you guys spot scam betting sites ? Which are the red flags with those kind of sites and do you believe the rating/review sites or they are mainly paid like the ICO review sites ?

First of, I don't think that reputable rating/review sites can be paid to show fake ratings, because if caught doing so they would lost their audience immediately. Speaking about the red flags, if site is a very new one and there are no reviews about it yet, that's the red flag number one for me. I never deposit on such sites whatever deposit bonuses they promise.

Overall I suggest to trust the sites with good reviews and operating for a relatively long time. On those sites you can deposit without worries, they won't scam you. But of course you should never deposit more than you can afford to lose because even on a legit provably fair site you can lose money to gambling.

Better to play in a well known gambling sites than to take risk into new gambling site. Most probably you can easily notice it if you lose too much money on that. Reviews can be scripted so most probably don’t take this as your basis to play gambling on that site.

Yeah, playing in a well organized gambling sites can lessen the risk of being scammed but to know if its a scam or not better to read more about that site and see hows the experience of the users on that site. Don't be fall easily by the reviews or details of the gambling site its good to hear the comments of every users.

yes, it is better to play on gambling sites that we always visit than to search any new sites because it's too risky. and if you want to play in the new gambling site, you need to search on here or you need to read about the review of the site so you can know which gambling site is a scam or not. but unfortunately, I don't know which site that giving any information of recommended gambling site and the scam site.

There are plenty of sites who can be trusted when it comes to gambling, whether casino or some betting games. If you had enough research and knowledge about those sites, then you wont be easily fooled by those cheap tricks applied by fake sites. You should always do your research, find references and other feedbacks by that site you want risk money with.

I have few points to present here that may help you to avoid to getting scammed.

* if you are interesting to invest in an ICO, always triple check, make sure that the team has the ability to finish the project, make sure that the organizers are known and for good, and never fall for scams that promises you that you will get X more tokens if you invest by X date, it's usually only to gain hype and it is never a good choice.

* Scam usually sound much better then the true, if you feel like someone is trying to convince you to invest, then there is something skecthy and you should stay away.

You could just simply spot it if there are no players on their site, and their site is a shit one which looks like it was made by a child, a lot of misspelled words. The most effective way to know is to try it, use their free satoshis and made some profits with it and try to withdraw it, if you didn't receive any and it just says "pending withdrawal" then it is obviously a scam.

Just search in Google before playing with your money at any gambling site. All the legit site have a lot of review for their trustiness. And you can also learn about the scam site just by search in Google.

Lol you do realise if a site is a brand new google won't help you at all as most gambling sites first have a ann thread on this forum as far as i have noticed is to ask the site to sign a message of the address where sites funds are stored. This won't be too helpful but way better than pre judgement of sites

In my point of view, if I do not want to be scammed then I would just go to the site where many people are joining and betting than those with less. Most often, scam sites are those with high promising revenue and stakes that looks like impossible to have in an easy way.

I think gambling sites are very visible from some of the existing reviews, as gambling sites can not afford to buy reviews, and in real live, gambling sites will get good reviews if they are proven to be honest and pay

Honestly the best way to spot a scam is to look for reviews about the site that you are trying to gamble in, and not just any reviews because some sites could be paid for fake reviews, you should only trust reviews made by people on social platforms like Reddit twitter and Facebook and probably the best one is this forum, because if a gambling site is using bitcoin or their own cryptocurrency, they would probably have a topic in here or at least posts about the site from other people.

How do you consider the scam attempt with the honesty mate. That is the not at all workable thing bro. If you want to invest on the gambling site you can review about the site on the review site and then check that whether they have involved in the scam sites bro.
If they are paid review on the site you can check badbitcoin.org website here you see the legit information about the true and fake site.

Some practices you can do:

a) Do self research and used common sense.

b) Poor layouts (can't be a scam but surely it's not the gambling site you want to take your money).

c) Asked others.

d) Stick with those gambling sites who already established a name. Not an assurance that you are literally safe but somehow it will minimize the risks of being scammed by choosing random sites.

Actually there are lots that will you will think automatically. Since we will put money on a gambling site, it's really mandatory to check any sides of the internet to find if that certain site can somehow be put on trustworthy list.

The issue with those rating sites is that they might be paid, just like ICO sites do paid reviews. You should look for user reviews from multiple sources to be sure. Also in this forum there is plenty of information regarding scams. They might be harder to find but it's better to spend some time reading instead of losing your money.

It does not have to be a rating site, there are forum like this that even when you search on Google, you will be directed to, so as to be able to get other people's opinion about a place to gamble or not to gamble. One way or the other, there must have been those who would have shared their experience in a way after being scammed so that others will know it is a pure red flag.

It is better to always stay safe than sorry and I do not feel it is a hard thing to find unless you just want to go with a site that others are not paying attention to which obviously would add no value additional to your gambling anyway.

You have good answers, so I would just add:
- Never login to a site with an account used in another platform or a personal email.
- If on a site ask you for making a deposit to be allowed to withdraw, probably this is a scam.

And of course, the other basics: make a research first.

You can google it to search and to know if that site you are entering is legit or not, you will know from there if you are taking a risk but with benefit or without benefit if you win or lose.

guess who's back

since I only bet with bitcoin sites I don't even bother with google , google had and will always have mixed reviews which can mislead the readers but checking the forums here should give more than enough info about different sites
the main problem is when a new site appears , but it's easy when the site has been around for over 2 years

Get familiar with the system they use to generate seeds and find out if their randomness really is random as they claim. Start discussions and see what other people have to say and if they can prove any scam activities like not allowing withdrawals or come up with crappy rules just to delay big withdrawals, etc.

There are already lots of discussion about how to spot scam gambling sites, you can look through it or you can get suggestions in here. As you mentioned ratings/reviews are also part in which to see if the site is legit or not but sometimes this reviews are not legit and just forged by them so make sure that you read thoroughly the reviews. Also, another place you can ask is here in the forum many people do gamble and probably they can help you see if the website that you are interested in is legit or not. There are many ways to check you just need to do some research.
