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.

Match fixing is straight-up scam already, what more do you need to see that it's a scam? I feel sad for many beginners because every first hurtful experience is the only thing that can make them start doing their research, how many of them are we going to tell to start using this forum for any gambling related searches? Not all people even know about this forum.

There is no search engine online that's completely clean of this fraudsters in gambling and crypto investment than this forum, it's left for beginners to have that sense of finding information themselves before deposition any money on any platform, it's a shame that even beginners have some greediness in them, how can a game be so fair for everyone in a group? That's not even realistic.

Everybody wants to be a winner by not losing but in the process of trying to avoid losses they will end up falling for people that promise them fairness in gambling, while gambling is still gambling, a pure game of uncertainty, they won't think very deeply, I will advice people to stay away from telegram as your learning field, use telegram to text people you know or projects you are so into, that's all, don't give face to strangers on telegram promising some accurate match predictions or gambling.

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!

I hadn't seen this type of scam before!
Maybe it's because I don't usually look for this type of service, much less go to unknown Telegram channels.

But this methodology that scammers use is "interesting" and is certainly capable of unduly deceiving many unsuspecting bettors or those who do not have the slightest knowledge about how this works and are just looking for an easy way to obtain information that can increase their chances of winning something. with bets.

That's why I always say.... before you start betting on football or any other sport, you need to do a lot of research first and have complete knowledge of the games and teams, this alone would help a lot in preventing you from falling into this type of scam.

Tks to share this info!

Because of that, I don't really believe in anything in the Telegram group, because most likely the people in the group are supporters and all the activities they do are just to attract people to join the campaign they are running.
That's why it's important for bettors to be able to search for the matches they want to bet on and always make sure they join a reputable betting platform, because it is much safer to play on a reputable betting platform compared to Telegram groups. All matches on this reputable betting platform have been verified and users are definitely safe to participate in these matches.

If I hear of match fixing, I will stop because I have known already that it is a scam.
The gamblers who will fall victims to Fake Fixed Matches are gamblers who are.
(a) Greedy.
(b) Gamblers not gambling for fun.
(c) Gamblers who have not been scammed before.
Greedy gamblers who want to cheat the process and just want to make quick money from gambling will easily be happy and willing to place bets on this fixed fake matches. Gamblers not gambling for fun will also like fixed games, they are not interested in the fun involved with making a prediction from research, and then watching the games to see if your picks will enter. Gamblers who have not been scammed before may think that there are no scammers in gambling. Scammers are everywhere.

Thank you for bring this to our attention. 
As you probably already know, scammers love telegram.

Again, Telegram is a hotbed for all sorts of scams ever know to the human race.

This is why no one should ignore the advice of "Do your Own Research". Ask questions. If you ever have a hunch that something is off, then it probably is.

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.
Changing of website name is always the modus operandi of these scammers. It never changes. Unfortunately, the victims of their scams may not have the time to warn unsuspecting people of this scam. So they keep thriving.


The conclusion of it all is to stick to popular sportsbook. Experiment with new ones at your own risk.

Anyway, thanks for sharing, although I believe that everyone is already knowledgeable about this, but there might be some who are greedy ignorance who thinks they found an opportunity to make an easy money.

It’s really impossible to get a victim here in the forum because everyone here is open minded to easily determine scam attempt due to many users keep reminding everyone on post or threads.

But it’s different scenario on social media such as facebook, x and telegram which many user are still dumb enough to determine if they are sending money to a scammer. There’s still a lot of newbie outside the forum that easily become a victim of this due to the narrative of this scammer is tricky for person that want a quick profit. Same example to those traders that still investing on shitcoin that doesn’t have real utility yet everyone keeps jumping for the sake of quick profit.

You can't be a victim to this scam if you have a basic knowledge on what is happening now where scams are everywhere. The kind of scams is easy to spot, too good to be true offers are normally scams, so that's already a red flag. Besides, if you think deeper, why would these guys offer fixed match information for people to win if they can bet on their own and take the whole profit.

Anyway, thanks for sharing, although I believe that everyone is already knowledgeable about this, but there might be some who are greedy ignorance who thinks they found an opportunity to make an easy money.

Spreading the word about these scammy tricks in the gambling scene is important. Newbies might not see the signs so having a heads-up on the common scams could save them from a bad bet. This forum keeps each other informed and steer clear of those shady setups
The newbies is also doing something that is wrong. We should say no to fixed matches, but the newbie will be greedy and send money to a scam gambling site. The newbie wants to take part in something that is not legal which is fixed match. There is nothing like fixed match,  all those said by people are just scam. We can not know if truly a match is fixed or not despite that there are some matches that are fixed but a gambler should not have the mentality that a match is fixed.

Although this kind of scam scheme is very obvious for user like us that is active on gambling and knew what’s the reputable casino available but there’s really some users that is too naive to distinguish scam casino because they usually prioritize on what’s the potential they can gain over the risk of what they are entering.

Surely an offer you can only bet a specific fixed match on a certain casino only will make newbie deposit on it to try just like the screenshot for the review. It’s nice to compile all the existing and new kind of scam scheme to newbie fof their reference in case they encounter similar on social media.

Yes, but if people will just used their common sense, regardless if you are a newbie or have experienced in gambling already, you shouldn't fall for this kind of tricks. And we all know that there are thousands of it in the internet, but the sad news is that people are blinded by greed, and in the end, all they can do is weep and regrets what they have done, specially if the money that they gamble is to be used for something else.

So let see this a lesson for everyone here.

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.

You might be right probably but I think opinion like this should not be made publicly considering how naive and gullible some people can be. Especially, newbies who just got into gambling and are desperate to make some winning. They'll bank on this information and would probably want to give it a trial since you justify that it actually exists despite one can not tell which is genuine or fake. I suggest we should frown against admitting that fixed match exist. Not because they do not but because people who are desperate will continue searching for it hoping to come across the legit ones. Fixed matches are not easily accessible to ordinary people and no one should waste their time looking for one because you'll end up falling victim to scammers. Telegram to be precise, is a scammers haven and those winning tickets you see there are not real but edited tickets. Stay away from fixed match and remain safe.

It's not a telegram bookie.
It's a fully fledged website that looks somewhat realistic, but the "fixed" match advertised by the telegram group is actually not a real match, and no matter how hard you search for it you will always come up to that specific bookmarker website, which happens to be a fake bookmaker.
I thought it is a telegram gambling platform. But even if it is an online one that we can visit using its URL, they are not hard to know that they are scam. I have only prefer local casinos that are old and reputed already before I can decide to register on a gambling site, but when I come to this forum, I have the option to know that some new gambling sites are not fake, but still I do not do that to any gambling sites that are not on this forum signature campaign. Not having experience and also not knowing how to easily know scam sites has been the reason someone can fall for this.

This is another form of scam I've seen being promoted heavily.
So let's examine what this scam is about.
~snip~
I'll be honest, even the novice gambler would put some research into what he's betting. At least see the history of the team and their past performances. One would only blindly pick something if they are convinced that its by someone they trust. If those insta ads are influencing someone enough to put their money into dodgy websites for games that don't exist. Either the person is very gullible or is very new to gambling. Information like this surely helps new gamblers but I'll consider it as stupidity tax, if I ever fall for something like this.

In similar fashion. There has been a rise of niche eSports games(especially soccer) that have plagued even reputed sportsbooks. I am fairly certain that a large number of them are fixed and the result ends in ways that its profitable for the sportsbooks. They are not provably fair(cannot be). A lot of CS as well as lower league dota games are highly likely rigged, especially if they are taking place in China or Russia. Please keep that in mind. In conventional sports, there's 5v5, 2v2, 1v1 soccer games that are 100% rigged. Also, there's some random Russian, Czech, Ukrainian Table Tennis leagues that are surely rigged, along with Badminton. They all have live broadcasts to make them look legit but on the contrary, if you have any expertise in those sports(like I have) it looks very evident, so you can sit back and enjoy them rigging games. A lot of lower league Cricket too are rigged. Keep in mind, if it is happening in Russia or nearby regions and its not a popular sport there in the first place. The league only runs in partnership with the sportsbook to rig games and make the sportsbook some money from some gullible people falling for that trap.
I might make my own post about it since there is a huge list of sports and it could be very useful for the forum members and it might go under the radar for most of them here. Will include screenshots from popular sportsbooks that also provide betting options for such games.

I believe that match fixing is scam already so I don't focus on that anytime I see that usually on telegram. How do you fix matches when you are feeling the game is fair to anyone. The problem with scam is that they will continue to exist because some greedy people will fall for them. If you are not greedy then if you see match fixing gimmicks you should know. If at all there is match fixing that exist how would that be disclosed for people to bet on it. So we should know that it is just part of the prediction that a match is fixed and they guess the outcome of the match.

If I hear of match fixing, I will stop because I have known already that it is a scam.

If it is a telegram bookie, I will stop and delete the scammer from my telegram. I do not gamble on telegram.

We can see some people that wants to try something like this or something similar on this forum, referring us to add them on telegram. From their approach on this forum, you will know that they are scammers.

You will deposit, bet on the exact score given by the telegram group, hit some crazy multiplier when the fake match supposedly finishes... And then you will never be able to withdraw.
It's actually a well polished scam. Some of the team names I looked up were actually real teams, they had just swapped the league and day of the match. For example for a real match of Team A and Team B on a Tuesday they would say
Team A vs. Team B (U23 league) on a Monday. This seems entirely possible as actually sometimes U23 leagues can have similar schedules with regular leagues. But The league they are talking about is actually always nonexistent. But I could even see someone kidna experience falling for this because just by Google searching you can't definitively find out that these teams don't exist.
