    Just looking for a some advice. I referred someone from this forum to a book. The jackass sent $100 and lost it on the casino. Now he is making a ********** and the book wants to take my referral bonus out. What should I do??

    Nothing. They should take back the referral bonus.

    Consider it a lesson learned. If having the bonus taken away bothers you that much, don't refer random forum posters.

    NotSoBad, in my opinion the book's acting properly. If they didn't enforce that, then any of us could gather up our dodgiest friends with crappy credit, get them to deposit, charge back and then we reap the rewards of the referral bonus.

    I guess just consider this a lesson learned for the future about conducting any sort of transactions with random strangers online.

    What concerns me the most is that I know for a fact that books share info. I don't want my name blacklisted out there just because of this moron who should play at McDonalds's playground instead of playing a game for men. I have a friend who made a ********** to Bodog and another place and now he can't use his card anywhere. Books just give him the person to person option or show him the door before he even gets in.

    Yeah they share info but I think if that ever came up, you'd most likely be able to explain the situation and sort it out. Is the book itself booting you? Because if they're not, I can't see why others would.

    Just called the book and asked them. They said it is his name that will be passed. Not mine. All good now.

    people who do chargebacks are a major portion of why it is so difficult to move $ in and out of places in this industry.

    They have hurt us all a great deal.

    Are you saying he already called the cc company? If not, and you turned the referral bonus into over $100, give your friend $100 to not do the **********.

    You're right. I hope he didn't refer Cory1111, lol. He should out the poster, maybe the mods can penalize him at least $100 worth of betpoints.
