Rogue online casinos, blacklist and warnings
As a general rule, we try to avoid even including casinos on this site if they are not up to scratch. However we value the disclosure of information over ignoring a problem in the hope that it will go away - so we don't just ignore the bad apples in the online gambling industry, we tell you who they are and why. That makes this page one of the most valuable on our site. It may not win you anything but it may just save you a whole lot of time, heartache and money.month recommend casino
Occasionally casinos have a software problem, or turn bad, or go under. Then there are the casinos that are outright scams, have cheating software, or disappear overnight. The casinos listed below should all be regarded as rogue casinos for the reasons stated. You can read further information for those we have reviewed by clicking the casino name.
If you are going to bookmark one page on this site, make it this one and please check it before you play at a casino - no matter who recommends it to you. It is far better to be safe than sorry after the event.
This conglomerate of rogue casinos has a long and consistent history of non payment of winnings, deliberately slow withdrawal processing, repeated bogus requests for proof of ID to stall on payments, and poor customer service. The owner of this group was convicted and jailed for conspiracy and mail fraud in the United States in 1997 after engaging in the so-called "Prime Cardinal Scheme" to defraud residential property sellers out of their homes. A player who once dared to go to their offices in Costa Rica to find out why he wasn't being paid was beaten and his life threatened.
For many years this scam operation was run out of Costa Rica but we believe in more recent times they have relocated to the Czech Republic, under the same ownership despite claims to the contrary. These casinos are completely unlicensed and unregulated which means that there is no player protection or recourse for you as a player if you run into a problem, which is almost inevitable given their history. See our reviews for further information and comments from players who have been burnt by these guys. The short of it is do not deposit your money at these casinos!
Various companies have been known to be associated with this group over the years including the following: Silver Arrow Marketing, Grafix Softech, Gambling Wages / Gwages affiliate program, Ace Revenue affiliate program, Fast Track Affiliates program, and Audeo N.V. This group also operates its own promotional debit card called Players Rewards Card, which many players have reported receiving in the mail. We advise you to bin the card if you do receive one.
