    SCAM Alert - BetJambo

    It's a new sportsbook in the Apex Sportsbook family (*****, *****, and more). We are used to these guys posting here pretending to be players. Now BetJambo touts being rated B by SBR on their homepage. BetJambo.com. Of course this is not true. Players beware of scammers.

    They never learn, you just cant claim an SBR rating that is not true. Someone always checks... and a good way to get blacklisted I would say, just for being liars.

    Unreal. Slimy book claiming a B rating that's completely false.

    Bill, so when do these jokers get an actual rating... we all know where this is going so might as well make it official right... and will it be listed under Apex or under Betjambo...

    Not seeing anything about SBR on their homepage ...where is it? Only says "BetJambo is rated highly on all the major Sports Books watchdog portals."

    Ya, checked out the landing page... nothing about SBR. Does say Betjambo Winners Welcome.... Winners welcome to what, welcome to play somewhere else apparently.

    Maybe they put the B up in anticipation of sending SBR a check

    We'll do a full report this morning and likely downgrade the others in the family. The dishonesty in marketing is telling.

    There are still a lot of people who just use Google or don't know that Ask-The-Bookie network and reviews are on the same servers as the books they are pushing. People are much more savvy today than 5 years ago but it's still a good scam.
