Due to lock down in my country I am at home and doing random stuff with my laptop and internet, testing out various avenues for earning. Just now I have come across a very well known gambling website, and I have found a way to abuse their signup bonus which is 1$ straight away in your account within lets say 1 minute of work. To be honest I have made 10$ or so and then lost it all to the casino.
I can do that all day (of course without making it too obvious) without detecting them right now, because sooner or later they surely gonna find out, but one can make decent amount of money for sure till then.
I just want your opinion about how to approach them, am I eligible for bounty?
I know most of you will say that tell them straight forward but maaaaan, its so tough ! honestly I have no clue what to do?
If any one here encountered with the same situation please let me know your experience, it will help.

NOTE: please do not pm me regarding any information of the website or the method, it will be a futile effort.

I own a startup (In the future it will be dice). And a lot of people think they can spoil a free bonus. But in fact, I see everything and allow playing. And when people want to withdraw, I report that I know everything and ask for proof of honesty.

Dont you think it is dishonesty on your part also to not to stop the exploit at the very first place.

Don't be greedy and just inform them. If they don't reward you, then forget about it and don't get stressed out and hung up about feeling that you deserved something. The worst thing that you can do is waste time on petty things.

Already done, after lots of pondering over the matter, I have mailed them and they have fixed the issue.

Have you got any reward for telling them about such an important security issue? Normally gambling projects reward important information.

nothing they told me, they are already looking on it. Last time I checked it was fixed though.

How much is enough? You already got $10. It's time to tell them.

Perhaps somebody else has also discovered it and is in the process of running their business into the ground right now. You could stop that and be a hero.

Usually what they do is tell you they already know about the bug and they're working on it, forfeiting any bounty you might expect.
I'm not saying keep doing it, but i really doubt they'll make it worth your while.
Best thing that might come out of it you get some website credit which you can't withdraw, and you'll probably loose that as well
