It's been a while since I started a topic here.

I know a female friend who works from home selling betting tickets for a casino. She has a WhatsApp group where she posts the matches. From what i could see, she also posts the odds, ready-made tickets, and claims her predictions are over 85% accurate.

I haven't tried it yet. But is the scalper business a good one? Can you make it your main job? I didn't ask her how much she earns because it might be rude, but from what she tells me, she started in less than a year. Sometimes she doesn't have many customers buying, which makes her have a more or less profitable week.

She has to be on her cell phone 24hrs a day and barely sleeps for fear of missing the games to pass on her predictions.

The cool thing about this profession is that it can be done from home. Now, the question is whether it's worth it.

I do not have a flair for any profession that steals my time so much like your friend's job. What's the point working from home when you are always on the job 24hrs a day? That job doesn't seem cool to me. For your friend to be consistent with the betting scalper job, it means she somehow has passion for her job. Yea! Anyone who intends to go into such business line should be passionate about it so they do not get bored while on the job. If you are considering going into that line of business, then you should be sure you can handle the stress that comes with the job and not only interested in the money you think she is making from being a sports betting scalper.

Come to think of it, why would anyone who has the ability to predict scores which are 85% accurate sell them instead of placing such bets themselves inorder to win the money?

Easy to prove, easy to ask the obvious question, if he has such a high rate of getting the right score, why is she not keeping the tickets for herself rather than going through all the work of finding customers and getting paid by them instead of ruining bookies with her skills?

It's the same scam, you sell half of your customers one result and the others a different one, with enough persuasion you can keep a few of the ones that still lost for another round, while again taking their money for nothing while the winning half would be enthusiastic and willing to pay you even more. Now the second run comes and if again it's the losing side that gets the wrong odds then you lost those, but you still have half of your customers that are happy about getting the right ticket twice in a row and they will be more than happy to spread the word and get more people on board your scheme.

85% is insane, unless we talk about games with odds lower than 1.25 on average there is absolutely no chance in hell for this to keep going even for a month-long, and at those odds the returns are also pretty bad so you need to risk more to make a few hundred dollars.

As on her own side, its a good and lucrative business to do, inasmuch as she's being able to pull the required traffic on her platform and they are buying or subscribing for her predictions, business is all about having the idea of what people want and creating a gap in bridging over the demands for that specific thing through your own personal initiatives, but we should not accept the assumption that all her predictions are 85% accuracy, the business have been moving and that is why you could see her still on other to of it, knowing the various ways to get the attention of the general public is another way to make it running and profitable.

I will prefer to by a domain and set up a prediction website instead which people will know that not all my predictions will be correct. All that I need is to make like 70% accurate predictions daily and you will see people coming to check for predictions daily. The site can be monetized with ads.

If I could make like 70% accurate predictions daily like you said, I think that the prediction website would be useless because I would be already living and drinking cocktails in Bahamas Cheesy

Back on topic, I believe that if you are good at the job you can make a living being a sports betting scalper. That's not a job I would like to do, and I don't think I would be good at it either, but the question was whether it is worth and proof is that some people live simply providing such services.

Just from your entire writing, it seems it’s not just worth to even you and I think the best answer should be from the scalper herself but if you want to know if it’s worth it, then you should starting watching your female friends life and maybe you might tell if it’s worth it or not.

Very rare for a woman to engage in sports betting and she seems really doing well to make a living through it with 85% prediction rate. She must have known the sport very well and followed all the stuff.

I'm not very familiar with the term sports betting scalper but with that kind of prediction rate and predicting it while the game hasn't yet started, it would really mean she's that good.

Yeah you’re right and the fact that the scalper is a woman, make it more enticing for readers because there are careers that seem more of manny and anything gambling, we’ll agree that, it’s a typical example of the career meant for men and not woman and seeing her with claims of 85% accuracy is a great sign that she’s good at what she does and that’s a great example for other woman that thinks it’s impossible.

A friend of mine was in a similar group and claimed it was accurate; however, if I can't believe something that I cannot see with my own eyes, I'm having a hard time believing that her group's predictions are 85% accurate.

Back in the days I used to use some of these groups and all of them do not deliver what they claim. They will only posts the success stories but all the losing events are not a part of their promotions.

Of course the business is lucrative. When you have a good marketing team, and able to attract players then charging a subscription fees can make you good money. You are not losing anything at all but investing time and managerial skills.

Truly from what you said, just a few of what they deliver to their subscribers pay, most of them ends ups editing the results of the games just to prove credibility. One strategy they use is going down to less division leagues and selecting options from there because most at times it's hard to detect when they edit their losses since subscribers may barely know or know nothing about the selected fixtures bet on.

The possibility of making fortunes are just from the new subscribers, left for any one who has continously seen losses to continue paying for such expect there is a good reflection of profits.

I am not a big sports bettor so I am sorry if I am a bit ignorant but what exactly is a sports betting scalper? it's my first time hearing about this term when it comes to sports betting.

In my understanding, a betting scalper is a person who works for a casino and passes on the casino's pre-made tickets to the bettors.
Remember that it is not the person who makes the predictions, but the casino. The person simply passes the tickets on to the interested parties.

Quote

Yeah, she is full of BS about that claim. if she ever posted here in the forum she'd be called out and will be asked for proofs.

I've already invited her to post on this forum, but she isn't someone who has shown interest in learning about bitcoin and cryptocurrencies and would have difficulty adapting to this forum, especially in a forum where the content posted is mostly in English (in brazil we speak Portuguese). Although she has a translator, she is a person who does not know much about technology.

Based on your definition of the job the betting scalper is more like prediction guru or she does also have to place the bets for their customers?

No. Only what the person will do is to predict some matches and give it to her customers but the customers will pay first before she will give any of them the predictions. This is not just highly risky but it is also just a scam. I do not know how some people will be very foolish to go for something like this.

Quote from: Findingnemo on August 24, 2024, 12:06:17 PM

Either way it's highly risky, cause if someone denies payment after losing the bet then it should be paid from her own pocket and I don't think with the evolution of technology there is no need for such middlemen to place bets or for prediction, we can do those things on our own.

She has nothing to pay. It is pay first and receive the prediction just like I explained.

Quote from: Findingnemo on August 24, 2024, 12:06:17 PM

However, it can bring good money but it's not reliable so it should not be considered as a career even if it brings 5 figures salary per month.

I agree with you about this.

This would be worth it when you got so wealthy on your finances, but it's not that fortunate in times of failures of your bets. When you're scalper, the risk was too huge compared to regular invested gambling bets. However, if have chosen those wrong team to arrange for your set plays I don't think it would sustain any longer to gain that much for your winning streaks.

yes is profitable and also a nice way for earning.
but you need a good money management system, a large stake for gambling, tools (like software), double internet connection, live streaming (maybe a fast one) or at least subscription to premium service for live sport news.
plus you need a lot of time for following the event. good scalpers play most of the time only pre-match... this is why is really profitable...

85% of win by your friend is just a percentage... wich odd she use? what is the ROI? what is the overall profit?

first time see the world of sports with scalper. i started to think this strategy with quite high risk. in my opinion in the world of gambling many people do many things strategy but the ratio of risk level is different. put hope luck only but excessive will be fatal if not controlled and if playing with pleasure as entertainment might be better

We are talking about the scalping job which doesn’t involve any risk on the side of the one selling the tickets. I think this is only popular on country that has online betting restrictions since people can’t place bets on their own.

However, On player side there’s really a lot of risk involved here since they are relying on 3rd party to place bets for them in exchange of being able to gamble. I’m not sure if it’s really worth it because I’m not in their shoe but I will completely understand if someone still avail this option due to country restrictions and also with 85% success rate being promote by the seller.

Of course they don't, there is no sane person out there handing out free money making advice (or for a fee in this case). Provided that you had insider information, you wouldn't sell it for a subscription, you'd simply take full advantage of it and not tell anyone about it. I've received a handful of messages in the past from so-called enterpreneurs, some were gambling related as well, inviting me to their secret signaling group for a "minor" fee of $30 to $40 per month if I remember correctly. Messed with a couple of them and haven't received anything for quite a while.

You have so many questions that it looks like you want to try your hand at this profession.

No one will disclose the real profitability of such activities for reasons of not attracting competitors if it is really very profitable.

This work is similar to running your own business, that is, all the burden and responsibility falls only on you.

Is it worth doing? To answer, more background information is needed: what the monthly profit can be. To understand this, personal experimental testing activities will be required.

I don't know if it's worth it or not, because I don't delve into the profession like he does, but in terms of the business that allows him to make tremendous profits in his profession and also his predictions are very good, I think it will be worth it for him and the people who follow him, because basically accuracy is very important in cases like this, and no one can easily.

He works so hard that he has trouble sleeping peacefully, whether it's worth it or not depends on the satisfaction and victory he gets either financially or in terms of satisfaction.

I don't think it's possible to continually make predictions that are up to 85% accurate, even if by virtue luck, some or most of her prediction is accurate, it wouldn't happen repeatedly, some days are bad and some days are good (full of luck). She can actually be making money to sell those tickets if she have had quite a lot of customers that believes in her prediction. If she, on her own believes that her prediction is always 85% accurate, then he should start wagering some huge amount, that's what will make her earn more Wink

85% accuracy is quite high in my opinion and should be without selling tickets which makes it more risky of course she has made quite a lot of money, but this is like the owner of a trading signal channel who says a high win rate but actually he earns more from members who pay to join his channel, so it can be said that it is not trustworthy at all and I suspect that those who still join the women's group are just bettors who are curious because they have won but it could be that they lose much more often, and that is not a good job because she gets money with the embellishment that contains elements of lies.
