New Live Betting Odds Service, LinesMover, operated by 4SportsPicks (SBR rating F) management.
MajorWager moderator Clevfan spotted Linesmover's phone number on SBR's overview of
4SportsPicks.com which now uses the website, ForSportsPicks.com. The most recent scam from the
4Sports Group was through deposit-only F-rated betting sites
PlayersBigWorld,
Playing24Hours and
SportsPlayingWorld. 4Sports moved these books with it from SportsCallCenter F.A. turnkey service before starting their own operation. Within months players were contacting SBR for help with over five-figures in total payout requests. 4Sports management, also management for Linesmover, told players they are only a service provider. 4Sports also serviced
ewinner when it closed with player funds in 2004.

Newly rated sportsbook SportsPlayingClub (SBR rating F) already scamming players. SPC states it is "powered by
Playing24Hours"
(SBR rating F). Playing24Hours is another mirror site of
PlayersBigWorld (SBR rating F) which has already stiffed users. Although SportsPlayingClub uses SportsCallCenter.com and the others are hosted on a different server and operated by former management of stiff books
ewinner (SBR rating F-) and
4SportsPicks (SBR rating F), it would appear the two hosting facilities are working together or are one in the same. 4Sportspicks has previously used Sports Call Center SA servers and phones. | Related:

4SportsPicks (SBR rating F) owner opens online sportsbook PlayersBigWorld
4SportsPicks closed with debts to both players and operating providers before eventually serving only credit players out of the SportsCallCenter F.A. facility. The sportsbook operator is soliciting players again under Playing24Hours (SBR rating F), SportsPlayingWorld (SBR rating F) and its latest sportsbook venture, PlayersBigWorld. PBW entered the rating guide at F today. Former players of 4Sportspicks and ewinner (F rated sportsbook that shared offices with 4SportsPicks) are likely to receive phone solicitations.

SBR Bill Dozer reports: Crooks that owned stiff sportsbook
ewinner (SBR rating F-) also own the casino gaming site
www.LuckyLotto.com. Players should beware of gaming sites using an accounting department called Central Deposit.
CentraDeposit.com assures players that their funds are safe while taking deposits for these stiffs.
ewinner’s former software and customer service provider
4Sportpicks.com (SBR rating D-) bailed out all players with small balances. 4sports emailed those select players stating that they
“made this decision to protect the integrity of our industry” yet players with large balances were turned away. Although 4sportspicks will acquire some customers from this book that they serviced and did not back, SBR has evidence that this was not a coordinated scam between the two ownerships. SBR reaffirms 4sportspicks grade of D-.

ewinner, SBR rating D-, earlier report by SBR stating
ewinner was broke is false-
ewinner was beaten by 6 players and refused to pay claiming rule violation - BetRoyal has since gone public and contacted SBR that they will honor the winnings to the group that
ewinner refused to pay - Sirbet, SBR rating C+, manages
ewinner but apparently is not able to control policy. Sirbet did however say that they will not permit
ewinner to accept wagers they can not pay but stopped short in guaranteeing
ewinner players funds.
