I read the story another forum user posted here a few days ago about their experience at 1xbit, so I figured I would chime in and tell my similar experience lest anyone think that his was an isolated or atypical case. I had used 1xbit for a few years, never had any issues getting pretty fast payouts when I requested them in the past. There was one time they refused to grade one of my prop bets correctly, but it was very small so I let it go since they have some smaller markets, unique props and live betting that other books that I can use lack for the sports I follow, MMA & boxing.
But when I logged in this past Saturday morning August 31st during the UFC Shenzhen card my account was looted for almost my whole balance of nearly 0.2 BTC or about $2,000 worth. My account history didn't show any sports wagers I didn't recognize or unauthorized withdrawals. But when I emailed them they told me that I had used my coin in the casino and it was gone and suggested I should change my password and enable two-factor authentication. Obviously implying some third party hacked into my account and gambled my coin away in their online casino.
I suspect it was simply stolen by the book or an employee, especially after reading that the same thing happened to another person around the same time a few days ago. After all, why would a hacker piss my coin away in the casino rather than try to request a withdrawal to their own wallet, which likely would have been approved and just steal it outright?
I see from reading other posts that 1xbet & 1xbit's reputation is well known around here and that many others lost far more than I did, but I figured I'd post my recent experience anyway so others can see the continued pattern of behavior.
