There are a lot of scammers in these groups. So, it’s better not to join them. Or you can change the settings of your app. This will prevent from random people to text you

there are possibilities you are active on gambling groups on your telegram, members of those groups are scammers that use the subject of your interest on gambling to scam you. Be conscious of any new chats from unknown contacts on your telegram, you can also improve your security on the app to restrict unknown individual sending messages. You are likely see more on twitter and you dont have to respond to them

This is not related to gambling, you can move it to scam accusation.

I am surprised that no snapshots of the telegram conversation between you and the scammer to make your post more truthful.

That is telegram. I remember a time on telegram that a scammer messaged me, asking me if I know about meta trader or something. He told me he can help out and I will start making money in just 24 hours. I knew he was a scammer. Avoid such people.

This may belong to the gambling discussion because someone wanted to trick him using a casino and gamble in it, and have a discussion with other member of community if they had received the same offer.

Somehow I experience the same thing years ago and from telegram platform also.  He was saying that he is one of the admin of a casino, and wanted to offer me a huge win.  Then we can split the winnings.  He even promised to give funds to my account just to go with his plan.  It was enticing but I rejected the offer because of the possible problem I might face if I agree with his deal.

This morning I was contacted via Telegram by some stranger who claimed to work for some online casino where he detected a vulnerability in. He proposed me to exploit this vulnerability, and in exchange to give him the 40% of the benefits.

I have obviously rejected his request, and I am almost sure this is a scam. I don't know whether this is a usual strategy, but take care out there...
