https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--5290408Amount Scammed: 66.3mbtc/1000 euros
Payment Method: Bitcoins
The story from the beginning:
Have recently opened account with Adkinsbet.
I was not going to open account with them as they weren't accepting customers from my country. But their representative sent me a personal message at bitcointalk that i could register with them.
Proof of personal message:

**For definition of ''Paid dogs'', please read PS 1 at the end of post.Have used Adkinsbet for a total of 12 bets. Normal bets with stakes from 3 mbtc to 10mbtc.
Since there were some bad reviews for them at bitcointalk, i decided to keep my balance with them minimal.
First and second withdrawal processed fine, 25mbtc and 40 mbtc each one.
My third withdrawal of 40 mtbc was not processed since 01 Dec.Proof:

Their customer support responded by mail that
THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH MY ACCOUNT, there were no arbitrage bets etc.

I was now kindly requested from customer support to fill my personal data.
Said ok, no problem and i filled them.
Their support once again
confirmed that i was going to be paid in next few hours. They even proposed to send me a confirmation email when the withdrawal will be executed.
Proof:
https://imgur.com/a/Q78L93bTill now everything was normal and i wasn't worried at all.
Later they asked me to send them my ID (front and back) and an utility bill as out of nowhere they now see some irregularities (!).
Said ok once again and i sent them my ID and utility bill.
Their response was to cancel my withdrawal till the KYC was completed. It is already 3 days and KYC have not completed yet.
At that point my patience is getting less and less.
Later their told me some joke answers, that my account was clean at first, but they later discover that some professional/arbitrage bettors placed bets on same events but ON
DIFFERRENT markets etc. Obviously, this is stalling technique from their side.
Proof:
https://imgur.com/a/ifvrvOmAt this point i told them that i was going to open a scam accusation thread. All of a sudden,
they admit once again that all my bets were ok.Proof:
https://imgur.com/a/pygZ7yBAt first i though everything was ok and that i have happy ending. However, once again they kept ignoring my messages, their representative in forum wasn't able to help as well.
I told them once again that 10 days had passed and that my withdrawal was pending for no reason. I told them once again that i will open a scam accusation topic if not get paid in next 24h.
Their response was to LOCK MY ACCOUNT!Adkinsbet closed my account due to my behavior in forum!
Proof:
https://imgur.com/a/lGvNdMlCan you believe it? Adkinsbet closed my account due to my behavior in forum!
Obviously, they are inventing reasons all the time to confiscate my legitimate winnings. First they said about irregularities, later about behaviour in forum, god knows what else they would invent in next step!Btw i did nothing wrong in anyway.
Despite the many complaints from user for delayed/non-payments, i even stupidly posted twice that i managed to withdraw twice from them!

Proof 3: https://imgur.com/a/CCzCdJDI repeat, Adkinsbet closed my account and confiscated my winnings due to behaviour at forum!
To summarize, my withdrawal of 66.34mbtc is pending since 01 Dec with joke explanations.
They now don't even respond to my messages.
Adkinsbet, either pay me legitimate winnings or you deserve to be marked as a scammer!
Surprisingly, Adkinsbet is open to mediator(s).
Proof:
https://imgur.com/a/0avbjXPI am waiting for them to explain in public the reason of the confiscation of my balance with the most ridiculous explanation ever! Also, since they claim they are open to mediators, I am also asking them if they accept SBR forum as a mediator!
If you think your actions are legal and according to industry standards, I am challenging you to accept a mediator! DO YOU?PS 1. Definition of PAID DOGS: Paid dogs is called an active a group of members in this forum that are paid from Adkinsbet to defend them. They repeatedly post bullshit comments for anyone that post a complaint with Adkinsbet in their relevant topic. You can check topic yourself! The paid dog list is not small. When someone post a complaint, those dogs post comments like ''you have 10 accounts, the guy who had problem is your alt account that's why you defend him, your are cheater and got caught, you are responsible for Adkins DDOS Attack etc etc''.
At the same time, those dogs keep spamming Adkinsbet topic with daily post like ''what a good bet is Barcelona to win, what a nice update, what a nice site you are, much like this site'' blah blah blah. Basically paid dogs posts only to get attention to Adkinsbet topic. That's why Adkinsbet topic got so much attention in only few days. You will not see something similar even with most prestigious bookies here like betcoig.ag, fortunejack, sportsbet.io etc. They are paid dogs who simply try to defend Adkins by any means and attract attention to their topic. They maybe even sold their accounts to Adkinsbet, who knows.
When someone posts a complaint about adkinsbet, some of those dogs comes to defend adkinsbet and they call you a scammer, a liar, an alt account, they try to connect you with other members so that you loose reputation etc etc.
Nice strategy from Adkinsbet, can work for newbies.
List of paid dogs includes but not limited to:
yayayo, deadthings, qory, condegnone, coin.princess, gadado, safari88, RokokGudangGaram, Cacingkemi, BTCGOLD, BitcoinAccepted, cutesgirl, aomakun, sempak, MI6, ongkok87, BlackFor3st, imutlinda, pungopete468, mardaed, nasipadang, ufaiz50, cryptomaniac_xxx, aomakun, zidanw, qory, john_nautica, wildan88, msarro.PS 2. Do you need more proof that all those members are paid dogs?? Adkinsbet didn't even denied that they have PAID DOGS in bitcointalk when i told them twice about it.
