Topic: The scam of FAKE fixed matches - page 6. (Read 1529 times)

WOW that's funny to me, people will always fall into the hands of scammers because we are 8 billion plus in the whole world, so among us we have people who still believes that scammers doesn't exist and many of them have not been scammed and most of them that have been scammed doesn't know that they have been scammed.
IMO scammers will continue to bring up more ways to scam people but we can only avoid them when we are very alert.
When we see one we make sure to share with evidence to others so that they will not fall in their hands as well.

Not familiar with the instance you have mentioned but I am more amazed by it given that there were acting done just just to pull up the scam which proves that scammers will do anything even the craziest ideas, just to get what they want. People being fooled with things involving money isn't a new thing right? And same viewpoint I have with this topic or discussion. I am a bit one of those who wants to laugh a the victims of fixed matches 'coz for me it is unfair. Those who would be betting on the opposite team of the biased, will be taken advantage of. Unfair that the ones who are playing things with fair and just are ones who will lose just because everything is scripted.
Greed and laziness would be able to explain the existence of fixed matches. Many people are interested with easy ways to earn money and this is what bad people are looking forward to. Gamblers who are thirsty of an easy win are their main targets. I don't get the part of disregarding personal passion because of money, even if there will be people who would be cheated on. Some gamblers took their life out of frustration and would you guys blame me if I'd see people who buys match fixing, murderers in such way?

Sounds a bit like phishing, most emails will find even me believing it plausible if you catch me at midnight half asleep reading it.    With gambling always start off playing to see the result, you put down a token and you observe the outcome your involvement is to learn and gain experience and so this light playing is always going to be a genuine win as you will build yourself up for future full betting.  Don't start off with full betting, don't dive into the deep end & remember its a game and every game you must learn all the rules written and unwritten.
   The no withdrawal problem is not so rare, again start cautious and be careful.  Bet, win or lose and then withdraw only when you've done this a while can you be more sure that the money isnt one way.  I'm not a giant bettor and I've seen the withdrawal problem or quite deliberate scam occur, you have to presume you will encounter it in your 'career'.
 There is a worth to the long term betting houses, they got reputations to uphold so anyone new should be biased to the oldest companies imo as it has a worth in degree of long term operation and security that has been part of the scene for years.

Sure, that is the most common and simple scheme, the one you described there. But even if there are some red flaga to be cautious about one must be aware about the existence of even more complex waits to scam people looking for information about alledged fixed matches. For example, the scammers could try to create two betting groups at the same time with as much people as possible. They would claim to be experts at predicting matches and will offer their first prediction to be free and the next one to be for those who pay.
When all it is settled they select a match and give a prediction in one of the groups and a different one in the other one, regardless of the result in the match, people in one of those Telegram groups will be convinced about the grade of professionalism and skill the moderators have to make money off sport bets, all it is left for the scammers is to collect the money and then disappear.
In this example, since they already provided alledged proof of their accuracy of their predictions, they are more likely to scam more money off their victims, since more of them will fall for their own greed.

Truly that fixed matches scam is very common among telegram users,  I can't imagine how people fell to this simple trick of scam, how can I get some fictitious scores from anonymous individuals telling me to pay some money for some fixed matches honestly that is a red flag to me I can never subscribe to that type of channel because I knew from onset is a scam  infact majority of the telegram fixed matches providers do ask for upfront payment before they release those fixtures I believe that is blatant lie of course some of after receiving payment they consequently blocked their subscribers or release a fake fixture saying it's a sure one.

a simple search will give you idea if the match really exists or not. so if the user will fall on this scam, it means, the user failed to do a simple search over the net and just believe what the scammers are telling him, which is clearly ignorance of the user.
if you don't want to be a victim of this scam, why not -
> at least do your part of searching those matches over the net
> search the bookie if it exists, because one hit of search button will give you tons of list
> do yourself a favour, the use of search button is free and will save you from headache
> did i just say, hit the search button?
i guess, those who will be a victim on this clear scam act are those bettors who don't even know the sports they are betting with. how can you so gullible on this, if you just basically believe for what the stranger is telling you to do so?

  I can't help but admit that this is a very clever scam. This reminded me of a story where a couple of years ago someone created a fake cricket league in India where actors played the roles of players, and scammers collected bets on the outcomes of such staged games.
In such stories, besides the ingenuity of the scammers, what also surprises me is that there are always people who fall for such nonsense, although minimal research should have turned them away from interacting with such shady companies.

The fixed matches is the trick used by the hosting people,because they spread about the fake fixing matches in the society.So the people who want to make money will believe their words,when the trust was made.The gamblers use to bet the maximum amount of dollars based on the potential,but the fake fixed matches will get all in from the gamblers.Many fake match fixing bookies do this fake spread about the matches.We should bet based on our knowledge in the game,because the knowledge is only key to get escape from the fake match fixing in the society.The fake match fixing was the scam one but the real match fixing will give us the huge money.

Oh yeah, fake fixed matches. I've never been scammed like this but I hear that this has been going around, but what would you expect? My father got a call once from a guy who claimed to be a police officer and he told him that his house is being targeted by burglars and that he should take all the cash he has at home and take it to a bank. The fake police man was most likely hiding somewhere along the street, watching the house with his friends, waiting for my father to walk out with the money. He didn't fall for it, but I've read that some woman in my town did.
Watch out for scammers guys. It's much easier to sell a fake fixed match than really fix it and the amount of scammers and thieves in the last few years has increased, probably due to inflation and financial problems people are facing.

Well I don't know how reliable it is when it come to the information of fixed games because the last time I can remember these games are not played by controlled robots which could be said of them that they were programed to produce such results at such times so I really do find it difficult to believe in fixed matches since humans are the once playing such games.

If one understands sports games so we'll then the issues of fixed game will be something then we wouldn't  be brotherd so much about and think of placing our money on such to the point you get scammed, I also wonder why would you want to get involved with a third part to able to fund your gambling wallet as it doesn't sound reasonable to me because why wouldn't you just go ahead on the site and explore various funding options and pick that which suits you and fund your wallet then go ahead and bet rather than involving a third-party that can get you scammed, that's too risky. Even if it's a streamer, always make sure to fund on the site directly.

Yes.

Actually Meta allows gambling ads, as long as the casino is regulated and it's promoted on a country where gambling is legal. However even they can take down many gambling ads, there are still a lot users will advertise gambling because they can run a bot or using other way to stay undetected.

Victims are most of the time those who are seeking for a shortcut to being rich and gambling does not work that way. Well, you could have advantage over other players such as with fixed matches or having access with such feat. However, would it be that easy? Most of the time, those people or gamblers who are inside a match fixing groups are rich ones already or simply with exclusivity. Now if you are a norma gambler and you dream of such privilege, then establish yourself first and do not settle with small match signal groups 'coz there's a higher risk that they will just take advantage of your eagerness to 'easily' win. Just gamble as you should be, if you want assured or less risky profit, engage with businesses and investments rather.

I don't want to access such feat in this industry. Eversince I got here, I am aware that losing will always be a part of the game and it makes gambling a beautiful activity, like the 'art' itself in the concept. You are not really taking a gamble if you are haing such advantage over other bettors 'coz you are simply just cheating. Imagine how many people have lost huge amount of money and still ended up with nothing. Have at lest some respect to their effort of being fair and just testing their luck. Cheating will never be validated by anything even if it is money. If you are not gambling, then you are cheating. If you are cheating, then you are being unfair. If you are being unfair, then what's the point of doing so?

One of many reason why its hard to believe those people claiming something that they can do such fix matching on certain leagues and we know how to organize this one since it need a lot of money to spend before they could make this to happen and I believe no teams will risk their reputation for small amount of money that's why I always believe thay someone claiming they can do it and ask money for tips they give for sure this is obviously a scam.

We should start to ignore these crazy claims told by people who want to take advantage on the situation and we should know how we can determine on who are the team have good chance to win. Research is important and we don't need any predictions of other people here.

You are right, if it's a real match fixing the amount of money that will be in stake is very huge those who are facilatating those kind of event will never reveal what's going to happen, they will not share that knowing that it can be ruined or like what you said they might be caught and for sure sanctioned will be serve.

Those who are offering a fixed match will just scam you, if by chance they find some luck that the pick will win it doesn'e mean that they will continue that winning streak time will come and you'll be busted and you'll find yourself regretting that you believe and follow those kind of offers.

The people who are deceived by fixed matches are those who want to get rich from gambling. That's logical. Because when the person feels he knows the final result of the match, he will bet a lot of money to get double profits. And that's the kind of psychology that scammers take advantage of. They rely on their creativity to trap and convince people that they have leaked information from trusted sources.

I think rich people or people who don't want to make gambling a source of income will not be affected by it because what is important for them is to feel the adrenaline rush of betting something on a team's victory.

Is there an option to report Ads on Facebook and Instagram? I'm asking this because I've deleted my Facebook and Instagram Ads several years ago. I'm sure that there must be an option to report ads, that are promoting sketchy products and services. Gambling ads shouldn't be allowed on big social media platforms. Why would anyone deposit money on a shady, obscure sports betting platform, without checking the reviews and feedback about that platform? Such scams will continue to exist, as long as there are greedy and gullible people, who are falling for this sh&t.

Definitely, there's no way that they're going to let in some poor stranger in on such a big scheme because most match fixing are mostly created by a group of people that are supposed to be secret because they can be sanctioned or worse, penalized and they can't really risk telling that to an outsider because most of the time, the investigations in match fixing is pretty much successful and they're really good at uprooting the people behind the scandal. Totally with you that no one should take the offer seriously because they're most likely going to be a scam and it's going to be extra hurtful to get scammed with this one because you're thinking that you're going to get a big win but then you got hoodwinked.

I am pretty sure if someone knew a match was fixed, he wouldn't make it public information. Why would he do it at all? He could just gamble and win millions without getting caught. But as we all know, fixed matches are mostly fake. Some people especially on Facebook, posts different results of future matches - but makes posts private. After results come, they make winning bet visible/public. Those are all baits to pull people to telegram channels and scam more.

This is a good advice. As it is said, a word is enough for the wise. Most gamblers out of frustration go online to search for sites that can offer fixed matches without knowing that they are giving themselves out to be easily scammed. Searching for fixed matches creates more problems for the gambler than it solves.  I have always advised gamblers around me that there is nothing like a fixed match. Even though it exists, you cannot have access to it. Fixed matches are not open to the public because of the sanctions the team or players involved get. It is done with utmost secrecy and with few persons. Sometimes, when a particular match is widely staked by so many gamblers and it won, the game is been investigated to know if it was fixed.

So, when we look at the check involved in match-fixing, it becomes clearer why we shouldn`t hope to get fixed matches. We don`t need fixed matches to make money through gambling. What matters is strategy. Even though no strategy can guarantee 100% winning with a good strategy losses can be controlled. Only ignorance and greed will make a gambler feel that he will win all the time because the nature of gambling speaks volumes already on the impossible of always winning.

Just to be fair though, everything is being targeted by scammers, as they are everywhere. And they are smart, they know that there are a lot of money to be made in this sports betting as people are willing to bet hundreds and hundreds. And so they created this Telegram communities to look for victims. Unfortunately, there are still gullible sports bettors who still fell for it as they just randomly believed that it's genuine and this scammers can fixed games in order to make a lot of money. So extreme caution is needed from us and maybe we can report it to Telegram and hopefully they can take actions and ban those accounts in their platform and to stop gamblers losing their money to this criminals. Just put a bet on legitimate crypto of fiat websites and we will all be good.
