Yup. Just like what the title says. I have recently been recommended or referred (since it was a referral link that got me to register) by a friend of a friend into an online sports betting site. Being new to such things, I thought I should ask opinions from veterans here whether such things do exist or not. Although that friend claims that he had already made huge amount of cash from this site, I am still pretty skeptical and haven't topped up yet. But I gotta admit it is pretty fun and appealing to me, just wanna make sure before I put some money into it.
I would really appreciate some online gambling veteran insight

Edit: this is the website -
lmb.ccAnother Edit: I have tried the website out since I had a few extra profits on binance just to get it over with. Sent about 10k php and is now 12+k.
will be updating in a few weeks if I manage to get back my capital plus profits or I get scammed.
- One thing I've realized though is that it is pretty rare to get authentic help from people you don't know and so if you don't have anyone you know that can answer your questions, test things out yourself though you may suffer consequences, at least you save yourself from the hassle of being ridiculed or explaining you're not a scammer or anything.
Also, many thanks to everyone who have answered me seriously and had real intentions to help. I believe in good karma and so I hope someone helps you guys as well in times of need.
Another edit : I'm up 14k+ now
Another edit : apparently there are issues going on about LMB right now and the TG is not recieving messages anymore just a bet signal and a note that users who top up more than 20% of actual account balance will have hastened withdrawal processing time. Now it is really looking more of a scam.
Haven't tried withdrawing funds yet just to see what'll happen although I already know what will. Just trying to give it some benefit of the doubt I guess.
And for the one accusing me of changing the link or whatever to avoid suspicion of some sort, I didn't. And most of the people who were in this thread earlier than you can testify on that. The feeling of being at the recieving end of accusations isn't good. Hope it doesn't happen to you people.
Edit (April 25, 2022, 01:25PM): Okay, so I am already up 17k+ but the withdrawal and deposit buttons have disappeared as seen below and the telegram is blocking messages now. Seems like the scammers finally decided to rake in the net.
With what I understood, the site was claiming to be a charitable something and they give signals for bets and the signals they give never lose so it seems with the time I've been there. So up to now, I really cannot confirm as to whether they would really return the money if bets ever lose. But yes, if by a miraculous chance they decide to come back(which is impossible in my opinion), I will post an update on this post.
This has been an amazing learning experience for me both in scams like this and the way some people are too lazy to look into details more and choose to accuse and conclude right there and then because it's easier.
Anyway, I hope that this experience that I have shared here would be able to help newbies like me in the online gambling space to avoid getting scammed or the hassle of having to ask random people about such things.
And once again, thank you so much for the people who genuinely tried to help me.
Thanks for sharing your experience, and i bet you learned your lesson as well. Because to be honest, there's no such gambling sites or casinos that will ever return your money when you lose. Business will always be business, and gambling sites or casinos will always have an edge over the players. And if ever you encounter any gambling site that will offer you a bonus that is too good to be true, then take it as a red flag. One mistake is enough for a wise man.
