Newly rated sportsbook already scamming players

[bigboydan]

Newly rated sportsbook SportsPlayingClub (SBR rating F) already scamming players.

SPC states it is "powered by Playing24Hours" (SBR rating F). Playing24Hours is another mirror site of PlayersBigWorld (SBR rating F) which has already stiffed users. Although SportsPlayingClub uses SportsCallCenter.com and the others are hosted on a different server and operated by former management of stiff books eWinner (SBR rating F-) and 4SportsPicks (SBR rating F), it would appear the two hosting facilities are working together or are one in the same. 4Sportspicks has previously used Sports Call Center SA servers and phones. | Related: Palacebet

Looks like we have a whole package of thug organizations here, working under different names to disguise their scams. Good job, SBR, to uncover all this. These don't even come across to me as sportsbooks. They are just con men who are trying the 'pretend to be a sportsbook' scam this week. next week they'll be selling non existant land in New Mexico. How do you collect from con men like this if one has been scammed? Does threatening to expose them on public forums work, or do they just change their name?

I just received a private message from a gentlemen this morning, and told me he was a victim of the Playing24Hours scam for a rather large sum of money.

I think a lot of us can sympathize with his situation here, but their really isn't a whole lot that can be done about it unfortunately.

BBD,

Please update us on if anything changes. I have a friend who plays 50 dollar games and uses Playing24Hours. I am guessing he has 1k or so which is money he would sorely miss. I hve talked to him about using my local or a SBR rated book but he has some fascination with Playing24Hours. If I can show him it is a sh!t book then maybe he will transfer his money out.

If you read what Palacebet and SportsCallCenter did to that one player there isn't anything more that needs to be said. SportsCallCenter.com is facilitating scams and are at minimum, indirectly involved and are aware of what is going on. Their owner used to come on our board to debate the rating of places like Dreamwager. I doubt he shows up again.

The only thing we can do is to keep passing along the warnings through reports hoping it protects other and/or forces them to change their ways.
