It is often seen that a team fixes entire matches for money. Sometimes the entire team is fixing and sometimes a particular player is seen fixing. A big gambler usually pays such a team a lot of money to fix a match, so that gambler bets a lot of money with other gamblers and since he is fixing the match, he is guaranteed to win the bet.
A match is fixed by a team and a gambler, so those who bet for this team are cheated. It is not possible to tell with the naked eye which match is being fixed and which match is being played normally. A small mistake in a match is enough to fix the match. Many bettors may have been duped into thinking that the team they bet on has colluded with another bettor to fix the match.

Not the match.
Let be honest, these is just the casino. No matter what match we are gonna to bet, If the casino provided these on their website is their responsibility. So, the problem is the casino are the scam not the match.
Always use casinos that have good credibility, especially when people already using them. Remember, people experience is really good rather than a score ratings on some website review because is easily be manipulated by the casino.

Scammers already know that many of us are looking for ways to win big money and we still have to do anything to make the winning come.
However scammers are not the ones to blame for their actions but we have our self to blame because we always want to win and not try to make wait for luck on our stakes.

Well, if someone tells us about the fixed match and it is really fixed, meaning that if we bet on that match, we can win that bet (provided we know the right results) of the fixed match. Most of the time we may come across such paid groups which suggest that they will provide us with fixed matches but in reality, they have no information about those matches. Joining those groups and then betting on the match will only make us lose money.
Many of these channels are on telegram and some of them people are paying to get this tips which is bad. Sure things are not easy to get thats the fact that I know, this means no one can see their tips for money they rather use their money to get and win all without telling anyone.
Many times when I see such things I laugh because I already have in mind that they are scam.

Again I would say that if someone is providing real information, then some people may take advantage of it but since the fixed matches information is unknown in most cases, therefore its is all a scam business. Better stay away from this scam which seems real while it is not to be a real.
Never believe anything in a telegram group because you don't know whether the people in the group are genuine or not. Because there have been many cases of scammers from telegram groups and they usually target users who have minimal knowledge about betting and want to quickly profit from their bets.
moreover, fixed matches are usually very obvious and people like us who understand gambling should be able to distinguish between matches that are manipulated or not. and just bet on sportsbooks that are regulated because the possibility that they will scam their users is very small and don't be too hasty in making a profit because usually people like this are often cheated.

I believe that match fixing is scam already so I don't focus on that anytime I see that usually on telegram.
The probability of getting scammed on telegram is 99.9%. Don't even try to do any verification they are what you think they are. As soon as you give them your money, it is gone forever. Any website you are directed to is just a cloned website. The screenshots of so-called "winners" are paid for. I will tell this to everyone that you can never see a fixed match on the internet. All their deals and bet are done and concluded off-line. And the scammers who use these telegram are very psychologically persuasive means to get money. Instagram is not excluded from this. Anyone selling betting tip for a fixed match is a scammer. 
Avoid people who thinks they know the future, no one does for real, face your little risks and use your luck wisely, gambling is never a solution to your problems, it's either entertainment for you or a mood ruiner, those who want gambling for fun of it risks so less to none and those who want to make higher amount risks a lot of money, in the end who is the wisest?
They know the future because they know the game is fixed. It's happening in some other sports specially on smaller league, but the question here is the credibility of the source, and it's hard to trust someone with it risking our money. This is just short term in case we suceed, however since "fixed games" has been what they market, this is quite shady and you are transacting with people whom likely are scammers.
Maybe in the first bet we can get win and anyone can get it but in the future we don't know what will happen, but you are right that things like this will happen more often in small leagues.
If really pay attention in the world of gambling, people like that will be very numerous and very easy to find.
Of course this will be very detrimental to anyone so it is highly recommended to remain careful with anyone when it comes to betting that can lose our money.
It would be better for us as gamblers to avoid things that could be detrimental, after all we have the ability and we have number of experiences which of course will be very useful.
Let think about it this way; fixed match will not be spread all over or sold for cheap amounts to various people's in different platforms. We all know the penalty for officials caught fixing a match so how will they now go on to expose themselves about their intent by leaking it to outsiders on social media platforms like telegram and facebook rather than just within their small whale circle.
It is scammers that uses use such avenue to deceive desperate gamblers and scam them of their money. Why will the individual be asking to sell a fixed match he is sure of for a $50 rate, like doesn't he also want to make huge money by playing that supposed fixed match he is laying claim on as a fixed match. These are rhetorics we should ask ourselves when these people approach us with their so-called fixed games.
Don't go wasting your money there's no fixed games it's just people speculating matches just like you and are trolling the social media platforms looking for gullible desperate gamblers to prey on and scam them of their money.

This is another form of scam I've seen being promoted heavily.
So if you have even the slightest interest towards sports, you're likely to follow some teams' or atheles' social media accounts.
Instagram tends to freely share your personal information with "advertisers" which often just means scammers.
So this scam is often targeting sports fans through Instagram and Facebook.
And if you or your friends follow something related to gambling or sports you're likely to be targeted by such ads promoting this scam.
So let's examine what this scam is about.
If you click into an ad promoting this type of scam, you'll be prompted into a Telegram channel where supposedly information about fixed matches is provided.
As you probably already know, scammers love telegram.
The room will be populated with a long history of highly polished messages about supposed information and past success stories.
However, what matters most is the most recent message in the channel.
This message will mention the exact score of a supposed fixed match.
What's the catch?
Well... This match doesn't exist. Perhaps the teams will sound a little plausible, but then they will say [U23], which means that you can't bet on such a match anywhere.
The whole allure of this scam is to actually put your money in THEIR recommended bookmaker because it's going to be the only one accepting bets on this otherwise fictional match.
And then you'll be met with the harsh reality that this bookmaker only actually takes deposits, no withdrawals!
The above is a rating someone left for this fake bookmaker called SpaceXlife. It appears that this scam operation has been running for 2 months.
Probably once the scammers feel like they've made enough they'll just switch to a new name and website.
All this might sound too obvious to you but people unaccustomed to online gambling could easily fall victim to something like this.
It's sad how social media has made the process of scamming so streamlined actually...
These days identifying scammers on the internet is becoming easy with me, hence you begin to tell me that you have a fixed match that I should join your telegram group then after joining your telegram group, before you tell me to pay a certain amount or before you tell me to join a telegram group I already know that you are a scammer. If I must even give you a second look, those fixed games should be popular League matches or from a reputable football competitions going on and I must see the games and I'm not even going to pay a dime for them, because I can actually do my predictions myself.So if you have even the slightest interest towards sports, you're likely to follow some teams' or atheles' social media accounts.

Yes OP, just as you said that it may sound obvious, but a lot of people fall victim to it, especially the gullible ones that don't understand the gimmicks used by this scammers.
I have one or two people that I follow on X(twitter) that are good predictors, though they don't drop fix matches, but mainly football predictions for followers to go bet on, and they don't ask for a dime from any of their followers, they would even tell you it's 50/50, so you already know what your doing, maybe you can just edit some of the games.
If one is scammed because he placed a bet on a fixed game who will he report the scam to? The law enforcement agency might even arrest the victim because match-fixing is illegal. I don't pay attention to anything illegal because it could get someone into trouble. However, it is difficult to fix matches these days except it is lowly lowly-rated clubs in developing nations. With the level of sports administration and laws, match-fixing can destroy the career of a player or even lead to the end of a club. The last time I heard about fixed matches was the news that a lower-division league in Brazil was engaging in such fraudulent activities. Whenever I hear about a fixed match or a leaked game from an insider, I pay don't attention because most of them are channels of scams.
Same here. I don't give attention to anything like that. Fixed match for me is equivalent to scam. And anybody who is giving a tip on a supposed fixed match is a scammer. No proof is needed. Especially if it needs subscription payments, that should be ignored immediately. That's a worse kind of scam.
Fixed matches are no doubt bad for the games / sports too as people want to see real fights in matches and not just want to see the matches where the results are predetermined. It is just a scam not only with the gamblers but also with the spectators who think that the match results are not fixed.
However, if someone already knows that the game is fixed and knows who will win in advance, then it can be a haven for them as then they can put a lot of money in the bet and eventually win that bet.
Those who fell for this kind of very obvious scam should try to educate or perhaps evaluate themselves. If one falls to a scam that is already very obvious as scam, the bigger problem might be in the victim.
Most of the time this scam is not known. Other than a few matches that are leaked to be fixed to the general public, most of the time we are not aware of the fixed matches. Only those who fixes and the authorities may know about it and all steps are taken to ensure that no one knows that matches were fixed. If this information is leaked, it won't be good for those who are involved in match fixing, and it may result in the end of their sporting career.
Avoid people who thinks they know the future, no one does for real, face your little risks and use your luck wisely, gambling is never a solution to your problems, it's either entertainment for you or a mood ruiner, those who want gambling for fun of it risks so less to none and those who want to make higher amount risks a lot of money, in the end who is the wisest?

Exactly how I keep my face when I come across those kind of advertisement because it disgusts me a lot for the fact that I already know it's a scam. I have not had any bad experiences but have heard ugly stories, which has enlightened me enough not to be a victim of such cheap scams. Some of those ads can ask you to place a bet on a casino, and it might be a casino that you are using for your gambling, but when you click on the ads link, it will ask you to re-log into your casino account, and when you take that action, you will automatically sign your account in on their end. If by chance I come across some information online and, on clicking the link, it redirects me to a scam telegram group, I will just report it. If people keep reporting such groups, it will be deleted.
In gambling space nobody really knows anything, everybody is just trying their best, some people are even ripping people off, pretending to know what an outcome of a match will be and the funny part here is sometimes it works in their favour and they will gain the confidence of people around them, there is no such thing as a professional gambler, all you have to deal with is cutting your losses short until you get lucky, if you don't know how to do this you are wasting your time.
Avoid people who thinks they know the future, no one does for real, face your little risks and use your luck wisely, gambling is never a solution to your problems, it's either entertainment for you or a mood ruiner, those who want gambling for fun of it risks so less to none and those who want to make higher amount risks a lot of money, in the end who is the wisest?

Thanks to OP for bringing this issue to the attention of the Bitcointalk gambling community! Good job!
We should all be made aware of scam artists and their strategies of stealing money from us. But, that being said, I do not think that any rational, experience gambler would be dumb enough to get tricked into believing in the myth of fixed matches, or better yet, groups which regularly have tips on fixed matches. It just is not realistic.
I am no newbie when it comes to gambling but this is the first time I heard of such a scam (Although I would have suspected it being a scam the moment I read the words: "fixed match" and "telegram".
But a newbie gambler might fall for it. And lose all their money.
Thank you for the information. This is important for us, even for the old sports bettors. There's a chance we might bump into this so this is really informative.
This is why I don't like just pressing anything on social media. There are clips now where it opens a new window and the advertisements are too much. Then these scammers add another problem for us.
I have not yet bumped into one because I don't really stay too long browsing social media. But it's for a different reason. I've seen clips where they add gambling site advertisements at the last part of their videos and there are those who will talk good about it but I doubt they are legitimate.
Anyway, this is a fact that we should always be attentive to our environment. Scammers will do anything to create money in a dirty way. It would always be better if we could just do our research on which team will win because this kind of sports signals could just be gamblers too who are trying to increase the number of bettors on the other side so they can get a better odds for the real team who might win that game.
Still, if this is a professional sport that is worldwide being televised, I doubt they will know who will win in that game unless it's too obvious as the other team is a heavy favorite.

I can understand how people not accustomed to online gambling could fall prey to scams like this. Greed plays a key role in a good number of people that get scammed. The idea of being privy to the scores/outcome of a supposedly fixed game could attract even someone that ordinarily doesn’t gamble.
In a bid to win some good money quickly, the greed in us would then nudge us just enough to put in that savings that we’ve been saving for months. “It’s a fixed game that’s going to be a sure win. We’re sure to get our money back and more..” These are thoughts that would likely be going through our heads as logic is by then, no where to be found.
We should be diligent and wary about our interactions online. Not everyone online has good intentions.

When it comes to promoting fixed matches, 99.99% are scams.
Immediately I hear about a fixed match, and then I know it’s already a scam. I see the scam strategy to be a very cheap one, but the surprising part is that you will still see lots of people fall for scams like this. But what I notice is that, the only people that still fall for match fixing scams are the people really desperate to make money from gambling. People like this are just ready to do anything possible to win from gambling, so they do keep on trying different patterns, and even when they are scammed, they never give up. When they see another telegram group trying to give out fixed matches, they will still pay for it.Same here. I don't give attention to anything like that. Fixed match for me is equivalent to scam. And anybody who is giving a tip on a supposed fixed match is a scammer. No proof is needed. Especially if it needs subscription payments, that should be ignored immediately. That's a worse kind of scam.
Those who fell for this kind of very obvious scam should try to educate or perhaps evaluate themselves. If one falls to a scam that is already very obvious as scam, the bigger problem might be in the victim.
Especially if those people saying or offering that asking some money in return for their prediction or claims about having that way to give them huge chance to win on their bets.
Usually that is totally scam since how could they do that since imagine how big the amount needed to move before they can make this to happen.
But I guess this is just been used by those scammer so that they can attract those newbies seeking for better chance to win on their bets. Usually the common people got scam by these are new to the industry and they follow the wrong guys in the scene that's why they have been fool and get scam by those random people they meet online.
A lot is happening on the internet these days, and as we all know, the most targeted places are Google, X, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and others. To make matters worse, it is often as if they had paid the owners of these social media platforms to keep silent about this, if not, I do not know how they are being emboldened like that. Had it been it wasn't so and if the social medial has their investigative units that are up and doing in this regard, it will not be long before they will know and pull them down.
What is the work of bots and other automatic reportage mechanisms and censors? So, I think that they can't be totally exonerated from this. Also, people should endeavour to report such cases as fast as possible to the appropriate channel. I believe that by doing this, it will also be an affront for the social media platform not to take them down immedtaley.
Above all, we should all be careful on the internet these days, what we see is not actually how it looks, let's beware.

Fixed matches do exist and they are common in low quality leagues or very low divisions of countries with great football yet they surely cannot be found distributed on predictions sites by some random dude.They keep it themselves,they are bet on by a small,very small circle that has the adequate info and they make money for themselves.Of course there are betting limits so the bets are dispersed on different bookmakers.That is how it works.
Sure, fixed matches exist but it is never advertised. There are punishments for any team that engages in a fixed match and so it is done with utmost secrecy. Any site or individual who claims to have a fixed match is certainly a scam. This is the reason they tell you to pay before you get access to the match and others will tell you to pay 60% before you get the game and the balance up after winning. These are all scams. What these scammers do is edit fake tickets and show them to you or publish them on their sites to lure the gambler into believing that they are genuine.
Some sites do not claim to have fixed matches but they publish predicted won tickets on their sites or pages on social media. They always claim that their games are 100% safe and guaranteed and you see write-ups like "BET YOUR HOUSE ON THIS", "NO CHANCE OF LOSING", 'YOU GET REFUNDED IF YOU DON`T WIN etc. These are done in a bid to make the gambler feel safe making payments to get the game but in the end, you will surely not win. The funniest thing is that they will give you a game that didn`t play but upload games that played on their site to attract other potential victims lol. These scammers have people who testify about their credibility and make you believe them. Don`t ever fall for them.
