SCAM ALERT: BlackDog Sportsbook falsely claiming to be part of 5Dimes

Players report being solicited by the book which uses the website BlackDogEG.com and the slogan "Got Credit?" Blackdog is attempting to gain business by misrepresenting itself and offering players the ability to bet without deposits. This scam usually ends with bettors being unable to collect winnings, often after already having paid the book for previous losing weeks.

5Dimes users will receive a warning message from customer service by email with the following statement:
It has come to our attention that another sportsbook has been soliciting customers claiming to be associated with 5Dimes. 5Dimes is NOT associated or partnered with any other offshore sportsbook. Any company stating they are working with 5Dimes in any manner is a fraudulent scam trying to steal player's money using the 5Dimes good name. There is only ONE 5Dimes. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this matter, please contact 5Dimes customer service.

SBR poster Hogie2010 reported he received a $409 payment from Blackdog back on 3-07-08. Other than this feedback I don't see anything else on them in regards to payments.

What is mid season ? Sports go on year round. Lets see March madness just started and baseball will in a couple weeks. Seems like an odd answer.

IN THE CREDIT BUSINESS, YOU GENERALLY DONT TAKE PLAYERS ON AFTER FOOTBALL STARTS UNLESS THEY COME THROUGH A REFERRAL. WHY WOULD A GUY CHANGE BOOKS MID SEASON GENERALLY ITS BECAUSE HE OWES MONEY. WE MARKET OUR PRODUCT FOR PRE SEASON FOOTBALL. GIVE PLAYERS TRIAL ACCOUNTS AND CONVERT REGULAR PLAYERS FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR.

MY LIMITING ARE MEMBERSHIP WE CAN PROVIDE BETTER SERVICE FASTER PAYOUTS.

[pokernut9999]

So what you are saying is football is all that matters.

[BIGBLACKDOG]

Football Is The Start Of Our Fiscal Year And Its The Biggest Season For Recreational Gamblers. Most Guys That Bet Recreationaly, Bet Football Take A Break Come Back For The March Madness And Stay Away From Baseball. Recreational Gamblers Are Who We Cater To. We Only Bring On 500 New Customers A Year. And Only For Those Players That Meet Are Credir Requirements.

Well, I guess I could see some advantage to your business model. However, I am sure you are aware you would be cutting out hundreds of first timers and after all, getting customers in the door would be of great concern.

I might add, I did not like the fact that you want people to qualify for your credit. Although I perfectly understand why, I just found it somewhat cumbersome with all the other offers from other available sites.

I am sure you are keeping a close watch on creditwagering to see if perhaps their business model is something you might want to try. Of course I would venture a guess that creditwagering may be a little more funded than you are at this time, but I am sure you could find some venture capitalist to help you out in that department; especially if creditwagering last the rigors of time.

Its Not Bout The Money, Its About Controlling The Growth. With The New Laws Meg Books Are Not Realistic, But A Botique Shop Can Service Its Customer Base Effectively.

[BIGBLACKDOG]

Weve Been Doing What Credit Wagering Has Been Doing For The Last 8 Months, We Are Just A Little More Selective In Our Process. I Curious To See If Theyll Be Around In 8 Months. By The Way I Am In No Way New To This Business.
