    Cashing out from Betus -- Concerns Please Help

    So I'm relatively new to online sports book betting and I have $570 in my account that I've accrued with BetUs.com, which I've come to learn is to be avoided at all costs for their unwillingness to payout and the myriad of issues I've read about on this site.

    I initially deposited $100 with a ** and now I have $570 to withdrawl and in order to do so they want front and back photos of my drivers license and my ** I used to deposit the funds with. Additionally, they want my checking account # and routing # to desposit the funds. This seems sketchy and I'm reluctant to do it because I do not want to deal with identify theft and the like. I'm sure this is common practice in this business, but it doesn't sit well with me. Is this as risky as it sounds or relatively safe? Anyway I can safeguard? I've heard of an option where I can have them send me a *****, but doesn't seem like that's an option if I deposited the money with a **.


    Thoughts?

    Whatever option you pick they are going to need identification to verify.

    Books generally want to send the money back to a CC if you deposited via CC. If you feel uncomfortable giving out your banking info ( yes, that is done on a regular basis ), and did not deposit with a CC, perhaps you should ask for a check.

    Ok guys thanks for the headsup. I'm going to try blacking out my drivers license # and the back security number from my CC and see if that flies.

    Congrats on your winnings Rob but hopefully you do not need those funds immediately. BetUs is one of the worst in the industry with stall tactics, they will make up every lie to delay your payment. I experienced this firsthand a few years back with them, when you do get paid, next time deposit into a more reliable book.
