What a greedy scammer, they almost copied the name and if the players will not be careful there is a big chance that they will fall to this kind of phishing site especially if they will hurry in logging in without checking carefully the details.

For bustabit players, it will be good if they will bookmark the website link so they can avoid using this phishing site knowing that we are only human and we are prone to mistakes. An extra i is the difference of their website link and if you will not carefully check it you will surely fall to the hands of the scammers. They almost copied everything in the landing page aside from the photo at the bottom of the page that is not displaying correctly in phishing site.

There will be actual victims that would just come out when they just use google search for searching one website. This is a very common strategy of these scammers and targets newbies that are careful how they browse on the web with the popular websites that they visit like bustabit. It also appears that there are phishing exchanges that everyone should be careful of.

I already got a official response from one of my emails:

Max day that we will see the site suspended is on December 17. So I do hope that from this time and up to December 17, no one will fall for this trap.

Good job OP! I hope that they'll action on it as soon as possible so that nobody would see the phishing link anymore.

Before there was Roobet and now Bustabit, I think scammers are targeting to copy known casino's website and get the credentials. This could be really dangerous for players who are not aware of the website and doesn't bother time checking the URL mostly are newbies luckily the OP managed to spot this website.

For obvious reasons, there could be two set of scammers here, and we have groups that specifically target crypto related online games and perhaps there's also targeted fiat online games as well. And also, there's a lot of money involved that's why scammers will make their way into created similar looking sites to trap their victims. The Roobet find and this one is just a tip of the iceberg, there could be more that we need to discover and reported.

Well there will be many more phishing sites that will copy well-known gambling sites because the group believes that with the target of big gambling sites they can make more money, therefore we have to be careful, especially in that URL which is very important, because the scamer will infiltrate where I put it the phishing link.
I saw only 2 well-known sites that were plagiarized by scammers so indeed this possibility can continue and increase which we will find later.

Thanks for reporting here, credits. I am not an active player on the site myself, but now others can be prevented from playing there.
You really see a lot of those phishing sites. That's the official name if I am not mistaken?

I'm just giving the community a heads-up because I've research and found bustabit.com phishing site.

Good finding. Other then reporting here can we also report somewhere else so that the site is taken down ?
We know that this site is scam but many who do not follow bitcointalk or gamblers who directly visits the site may get scammed. Maybe its time that trusted gambling site start to introduce 2fa.

Was the website already down? If not what could be the ways or things we can do to turn down the website? Is there a way we could report it to the domain provider or the likes? I think as a player of Bustabit I have a responsibility to report this kind of website so it won't deceive others.

I have reported it to their respective domain registrar.

need much time to take down the phishing, I was reported into https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/?hl=en you should also do that for quick response by Google.

Another way to take down the phishing is reporting into the provider domain, in this case, first phishing uses the public domain register, so report it to https://publicdomainregistry.com/phishing/.

It is very good that people are alert and report this quickly on the site so that users can be warned.

you should report it also, it will be fast to take down if many people also report it.

ven though the Bustabit site is very popular and known in various pretty good game lists. There is no denying that there has been an influx of phishing which is very vulnerable to leaks. the criminals were able to outsmart to trap many people inside. This must be followed up, so that all members immediately withdraw and their assets .. before losing more.

Its easy to recognize if we look closely to the url but it can deceive those users who use google search and didn't pay close attention to the link they are clicking to. And this kind of warning posted here is a good warning for users who almost forgot to check the site they mostly visit since these phising site are just here waiting for the victims to locate and victimized them.

Even the URL of one of those phishing site is really hard to recognized because it is a homograph attack, so it's not that easy in the beginning.

Yeah, we have to take users who posted this kind of warning because we will never know if we are going to see this phishing site if we search bustabit through Google, (although not advisable, but still maybe there are some members who get get away with that practice because that's what we used to do).
