5/17/2006 01:59 PM
BetUs (SBR rating D) management agrees to take copy-cat site, PlayDSI.com off-line. PlayDSI
impersonates A- rated
diamond Sportsbook International (betdsi.eu). The website was tailor made to look like the real
DSI, which has since removed its
diamond graphic and now lists the brand name simply as,
diamond Sportsbook.
BetUs management tells SBR that this is what is left from previous marketing teams and will be removed shortly. Last year the BetUs marketing department removed blog-style websites that linked words such as "
Bill Dozer" and "
SportsbookReview" to the sportsbook’s website.
