I've searched through the forums and don't see a clear answer on this. I'm trying to access my non-USA sportsbooks (ladbrokes, CentreBet, etc) from the USA using a proxy. Does anyone know of a website where I can purchase this service? I've used Tor browser a few times with success, but eventually Tor will route me through a country that these sites don't allow and they'll likely close my account. Essentially, all I want is for it to look like my IP address is not a US IP address when I access these sportsbooks from the US. This has to be feasible.

Do a google search for VPN

There are lots of them

Here is the cautionary statment

Either make sure your vpn is super rock solid or that the moment you lose your VPN your computer also disconnects from its internet source. A book that is non-usa has every right to yank a persons entire balance if they catch someone doing this. Too many stories on how the VPN blipped for a minute and a USA ip address is detected by the book or the poker room. I would just not risk it

Happens all the time. Best advise is to find a Canadian friend you can have place your bets at Pinny. We all have Canadian friends don't we? Ladbrokes will bounce you if you show any winning proclivity anyway.........

Don't know how you plan on getting your loot out. But I've used strongvpn.com successfully for a while now to access the US from Costa Rica to purchase things and watch content blocked to those outside the US. I'm sure it will serve the other way around.
I know some people that have used WiTopia and VyprVPN from the US to access Euro poker sites with success.
Just remember, you are breaking the rules and if caught sites like SBR can do nothing for you.

The only close to foolproof method is to spend the $600 for teamviewer
However you need someone on the other end for both banking and to keep the other computer turned on

Pretty sure sites can detect when someone is using a proxy

Proxy, yes. VPN, no. If you're worried about the VPN dropping the connection and exposing your IP, you could always get a cheap windows VPS in the country where your account is registered.

I had this problem around 6-months ago and sincerely am not in the US, I'm about as far away as you can get from US on other side of the world. The problem is a select few gambling sites are blocked here and I was using Tor to get around it (never thought of the consequences of that). My account was locked, but the site services my home market (currency and language) and probably was familiar with the blocking. I sent over my drivers license here, a utility bill and despite not asked for but wanting to quickly prove my case in a way that immediately left no room for doubt a video that proved there was no way I was in the US or could make it to my location that quickly (was 10,000 miles away). It was a foolish yet honest mistake and was all sorted in a few days time.

you can modify tor config file to only use non-usa exit nodes but tor ips are published publically and many sites check your ip against this list. as others have suggested a vpn should work or checkout a vps which is like having remote desktop access via a teamviewer type app.

Try out www.proxyplayer.net
I usually sign up for a few days when I want to watch some hockey or something...

What about a satellite phone for sports betters that only bet 1-2 times a week? Calling in bets...

[appleman]

how do you plan on getting paid just wondering

[stevex]

Good question appleman. All of that VPN stuff is good and dandy, but how would you get paid?

[Birre]

Anyone know if VPN4ALL are to be trusted?

[RicoJay13]

Can anyone recommend a site they've used for VPS?

[appleman]

how do u people expect to get paid if you are from a country is not allowed

As suggested, you can use a cheap VPS provider ($10 per month, maybe), and the windows remote desktop connection tool which is free. Works great
Basically you can open a window where you can see the virtual computer's desktop, and you can do everything you want on it, surfing the web, placing bets, and all using the VPS IP address, not your real one.

I just ran across desktoproar.com and remembered this thread. They charge 0.15 and hour using windows remote login.

[chemist]

VPN is safer than proxy because website scripts can open a side-channel that bypasses the proxy.

[prop]

Just got a VPN router set up and when the VPN connection drops I just become disconnected from the net.

[Inkwell77]

good stuff

Offshore acct and some (good) fake ids. A lot of work but well worth it If done properly. Just don't bother to use the UK books....
