Topic: VPN - Differences between countries where gambling is legal and not - page 3. (Read 400 times)

BC.Game has several mirrors like bcgame.sk and bcgame.top. The other domains have the same Cloudflare nameservers as BC.Game so they are not imposters. Depending on which domain you use, you might be able to access the site. I don't know if this means you will be able to play normally and withdraw once you have created an account. Several websites recommend them to users from countries which are sometimes blocked, like the US and UK, but I would check with customer support to make sure if you are allowed to play from your location.

   Have you ever used a VPN? because here in our country I have a favorite casino to play gambling at, and it is none other than BcGames, so the only sad thing is that I can't create an account on this platform. It seems that his website is blocked here in our country.

   And if their website platform is really blocked here in our country, what good VPN do you think is good to use for someone like me who is in this situation in my country? Thanks for answering if you notice my question.

Maybe you can report it to 3rd party mediator? I don't think that countries where they originated will go after this online casinos that might "cheated" us. It all boils down as to the risk of using VPN or not.

They might go to the resort of asking you for KYC, and if everything is not adding up like the location then casinos will go for that account locked and your funds confiscated. And we have seen those cases a lot in the Scam accusations board.

all crypto-based gambling websites can all be accessed. even though gambling is illegal in that country. unless someone reports to the authorities and says this is a gambling site. but as long as it doesn't use the local currency of the local country it won't be blocked. for example, what crypto gambling sites are blocked in Indonesia, the same youre country and my country.

The casino will stand on its "No VPN" policy regardless if a player is from a country where gambling is legal. The casino is likely going to win any case that's filed against them if their terms has been very clear from the start. It's weird that you ask for protection when you knowingly violated that policy.

There should be a local regulatory body in charge for gambling things you could try to reach out to, however, keep in mind that changing your IP address to another country with better protection does not make you under their jurisdiction.


Rather than being legal alone, I think it has more to do with a country's legal framework around online gambling and how it is being enforced. For instance, in my place, gambling (both online + brick and mortar) is legal but there is more corruption [with the regulatory body in charge] than protection for their people lol.

Speaking of many risks of using a VPN depends on what VPN is used.
If you use a free VPN, it will certainly be more dangerous because it is potentially more vulnerable to malware infiltration, unstable connections, and interception of data entered when using a VPN and many other risks.

After all, if it's forbidden, why force it to use it, unless the casino allows the use of VPNs and does not lock user accounts.

My country doesn't allow any gambling, but if it's just entertainment just playing without a lot of money being used, it's not a problem.
Gambling is not only through websites, there are many game applications that provide it, such as Higgs Domino Island with slot games that use chips.

Countries have laws that protect online gamblers from fraud if these casino licenses fall within their jurisdiction. I am sure an online gambler in the UK will seek redress in court if the casino is licensed by The UK Gambling Commission. However, it might be difficult for him to get the needed legal support if the casino has another license from another country.  A license doesn't guarantee that a casino is trustworthy, so it is always important to use reputable casinos. These reputable casinos have different means of addressing reports of scams and using reputable casinos that have a presence in this forum could also be good. The scam accusation section of the forum is also a good avenue to seek redress

Using a VPN is mostly about keeping your online stuff private.  That goes for anything you do on the internet, not just betting or gambling.  Even if gambling's totally legal where you live, you still got a right to privacy and  you probably don't want nosy people peeking in on what you're doing - whether its your folks, your boss, your internet company, the government...  A VPN keeps all those folks from snooping through your online data and stuff you're looking at.  It's about protecting your privacy, basically.

When you are living in a country where gambling is illegal, I guess you don't have a security blanket when the casino cheats on you. It's like you being a criminal yourself couldn't call the cops when another criminal robs the stash you stole from a bank.

You may be able to prove the casino cheated on you but then you will also have to face the law. Just let it go if you are from China.

Discussing VPNs and accessing gambling sites on this forum is always a hot topic and is fun to talk about, even though there may be pros and cons about it, especially as discussions about this are often raised in gambling board forums, there are several countries that allow their countries to prohibit their people from accessing sites. gambling and there are also casinos that mark certain countries where it is prohibited on their sites, which is what makes this issue continue to be discussed.

But looking at what I have learned, gamblers should ask service support before registering and accessing gambling sites using VPN because there are some online casinos that don't like using VPN and there are also those that like it, it depends on the gambling site, therefore it is better for users It's much earlier to ask about the problem because each casino's rules are different. If there are no problems, you can use a VPN, but if it's prohibited, it's best to avoid the site and look for another site that is easy to access and doesn't require a VPN. Sometimes looking for safety is necessary so that your account doesn't have problems and your money is frozen by the casino.

The use of VPNs for gambling is a complex issue with a variety of considerations. While there are certain benefits to using a VPN for gambling, there are also potential risks and drawbacks.
Benefits of Using a VPN for Gambling:
Improved Privacy: A VPN can encrypt your internet traffic and hide your real IP address, making it more difficult for third parties, including your ISP, government agencies, and even the casino itself, to track your online activity.
Access to Geo-Blocked Casinos: A VPN can allow you to connect to a server in a different location, enabling you to access gambling sites that may be blocked or unavailable in your home country.
Risks and Drawbacks of Using a VPN for Gambling:
Risk of Bans: Some casinos prohibit the use of VPNs and may ban your account if they detect you connecting through one.
Technical Problems: Using a VPN can sometimes cause technical problems, such as slow loading speeds, disconnections, or compatibility issues with casino software.
Security Vulnerabilities: Some VPN providers may have less stringent security measures or be located in countries with weaker data protection laws. This could increase your risk of data breaches or identity theft.
P.S. The decision of whether or not to use a VPN for gambling is a personal one. There are both benefits and risks involved. Gamblers should carefully weigh the risks and benefits before using a VPN and should take steps to protect themselves from potential harm.

However, there is a risk about using a VPN.

Even if the casino allows VPNs, if the casino requests a KYC process to the user, then he will share his real data including the location, and if the country is banned that would be enough for the casino to lock the account and keep the user's funds. That's why i don't recommend using a VPN at all. If you country isn't allowed by the casino the best move is to stay away from it and find a casino that doesn't have any problem with your country.

Use of VPN is indeed widespread among gamblers who live in countries where gambling is prohibited, using VPN will change the IP address which can make it easier for gamblers to access gambling site.
Countries that have gambling bans will have restrictions on gambling site addresses and the only way is to use VPN.
But regarding VPN, it seems that not all gambling sites can accept them and the best step is to ask the support team regarding VPN use, of course there will be solution or solution provided by the support team.
Moreover, as long as our country is not included in prohibited jurisdiction, there will be considerations from gambling sites towards gamblers who use VPN.

This is pretty good question but I personally have never experienced problem like this so maybe one way that can be done is just to make report on some of the official social media accounts that they have.
But when many gamblers experience problems, they come to this forum and tell each problem in detail so they can get help in solving it.

If gambling is banned in your country and you decide to bypass it using a VPN, that individual is already taking a risk and he should be ready to face the consequences. In this instance, that individual doesn't have any right to report the casino because he broke the law. The casinos are only doing their job so that they to do not get punished by the gambling agencies that issues license.

So that's all? countries where gambling is legal do not have laws or institutions to protect gamblers from online casino fraud? So how does a casino license work if gamblers cannot report or protect their gambling activities?

If the difference is only about KYC, then I think gambling from a prohibited country and not doesn't seem to have a significant difference, and VPN can be used to access gambling sites by changing the IP address

When the casino starts asking KYC the gambler who stays in the country where gambling is illegal will learn the difference. No difference at all and he will be banned instantly when they see the documents he is a national from a country that bans gambling.

But because some casino allows gamblers to withdraw certain amounts without KYC, the VPN users are fine. Once casinos ask KYC regardless of how much you have in the account, I guess users from those countries will start to be lesser and lesser.

Aside from the privacy I don’t really know what vpn helps you with. Most people that use VPN to access gambling site: which is not advisable ( since you’re sharing ip addresses with several other users that might be connected to that same server).

The only way I see VPN protecting cheaters is still related to privacy since the cheaters can create multiple accounts (for casinos that are against having multiple accounts) and then use VPN to access each of them -making your ip addresses different, that’s the only cheater protection I can think of right now, but the casino system will still be able to detect if the ip keeps on changing they might request for additional verification despite them allowing vpn just to be sure that they aren’t dealing with a cheater.

Example is that gambling is banned in China, but some Chinese are gambling online in foreign countries and also in their country. VPN is used to block the IP used. You will see some gamblers that read the ToS of a gambling site and if VPN is allowed, they might gamble on the site from countries that gambling is not legal. That is just it. This can be common to gambling sites that are not well known and not regulated.

VPN is something that is popular and widely used, including for gambling. Regardless of privacy issues or access to sites that are prohibited in a country. Regardless of whether a casino's policy allows the use of vpn or not, are there any differences in protection for gamblers when they come from countries where gambling is legal?

Such as protection for gamblers who are cheated by casinos because their games are considered suspicious or because their accounts are blocked unilaterally by the casino. If yes, how do report it? if there isn't then there is no difference between countries that legalize gambling and those that don't
