SCAM ALERT: LazerWager (SBR
rating F) operation taking wagers through live dealer
online casinos. The company owns websites such as
DealFourRealCasino.com
and
Deal4Real.net where the gambler can play against and
converse with a live dealer.
TheLiveDealerCasino.com, owned by parent company
GPS
Global, is attempting to outsource the live dealer service to
other gambling operators. When SBR visited the
LazerWager
facility in February to discuss its failure to pay, we toured the live
dealer casino room. Management stated that the value of the video
camera equipment was more than the "low 6 figures" owed to LazerWager
victims. LazerWager's parent company also operates its pay per head
service called
evolution
or
EvoDP.com. Evo Data Processing hosts and
services the following sportsbook
websites:
betbooky.com
betc2c.com
betges.com
betwinnerlive.com
blackysports.com
ibetaaa.com
lasportsbet.com
lawager.com

OnyxSports, an evolution Sports Data Processing sportsbook, enters the SBR rating guide at F. Onyx is post-up sportsbook from the same operation that hosted Lazerwager (SBR rating F). BetGES and IwagerBig, also sister books of Lazerwager, have been downgraded from D- to F.

Lazerwager (SBR rating F) officially folds with player funds; parent company scams continueLazerwager again cites frozen funds of third party processors as reason for finally calling it quits. The book used the processor excuse again despite only transferring two partial withdrawals to players since last year's Super Bowl. LazerWager blamed a credit card processor that froze post-up funds in February. LazerWager admitted that it made the mistake of relying on one processor to collect all monies and that without player deposits it did not have the needed funds to pay winners. The sportsbook lied to players saying that it would be transferring money from
other business ventures. During the stalling and false promises of 2008, the sportsbook marketed aggressively to get new deposits from unsuspecting bettors.
The Lazerwager staff told SBR prior to payout issues that the book is owned by
GPS Global SA, also known as
evolution Sports Data Processing (evodp.com). The sportsbook shares the same server with many other betting sites.
SCAM ALERT: The image below was taken from Lazerager sister sportsbook,
Prime Time Sports website today. The F rated sportsbook pretends to be rated A+ by SBR and quotes a review written for
The Greek (SBR rating A+).
All
evolution Sports Data Processing (evodp.com), AKA GPS Global SA,
sites should be avoided. SBR is currently researching all websites
under the operating group in an effort to warn players. They will be listed in the latest SBR scam report.

No-Pay book, LazerWager (SBR rating F) continues to advertise while stalling owed players
LazerWager management told SBR during our office visit in February that the book was waiting for a refund from its credit card processor and if it was not apparent that the funds would be returned, ownership would provide money needed to pay users. LazerWager then told SBR that payment should be expected in early April. Over the last month the book has maintained that the funds are being transferred. During this time LW continued to advertise to players it cannot pay. It has become clear the book hopes to market its way out of this debt and stay out of its own pockets. LazerWager should be considered a scam company currently funded by player deposits. LazerWager staff has told SBR that the book is owned by
GPS Global SA, also known as
evolution Sports Data Processing (evodp.com). |

IWagerBig, a sister book of LazerWager (SBR rating D+) enters the SBR rating guide at D+. IWagerBig is the third post-up sportsbook from
GPS Global/evolution Sports. The first post-up sportsbook from the operation was
SexyWagers (SBR rating D), which closed in good standing in November of 2006.

LazerWager enters SBR rating guide at D+. The sportsbook is a turnkey operation serviced by
GPS Global SA, which markets its services as
evolution Sports. The latest post-up sportsbook to utilize this operation and market its sportsbook was
SexyWagers (SBR rating D), which closed in good standing last November. Although Lazerwager has employed former management of
Nine.com (SBR rating B+), the book is owned by unknown "investors" and should initially be viewed as a high-risk turnkey sportsbook.
