Don't click the site link included in the email. It tries to download files if you click anything on the page. The site just went off line temporarily and to be honest, I'm not even sure it's a casino. It's very unusual that you can't even click the About Us link, etc. without it first wanting to install files. Stay away from the site and please know we don't send out emails promoting sponsors in this manner. Pass the word if anyone asks you about it. I've copied John on the email with all the headers one member included . Thanks for all of you who have alerted us. It's very much appreciated.

These started flowing into my inbox yesterday. I know Trish and John at GG are fit to be tied.

I got these, and one at least seems to be Prime Casino. These are clearly not genuine, but some MAY be confused if they have heard about GoneGambling, but had not tried it. I am sure John will do his best to get these spammers shut down, although I doubt he will have any luck with Gold VIP Rogue Casino.
Genuine GG Emails come from specific Email sender addresses, and not "support", so the spammer made one mistake straight away. I had three almost at once overnight, but none since. Hopefully, this was a one off. From the domain in the spam links, I think I have seen this spammer's work before, and it has been documented here at Casinomeister and seems to originate from Hong Kong (or looks like it does, anyway - can never tell what is real, and what is spoofed).

The spam I received this a.m. had the spoof 'From' as "gonegambling.com". This is going to cause GG a world of headache if it isn't stopped quickly.

Fit to be tied is putting it mildly. This is one mess you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy. John and I both appreciate all the people who took the time to alert us and while everything possible is being done, having GoneGambling associated with "spamming" is damaging to put it mildly.

How can they keep doing this?
I didn't personaly the owner of the site did but I am 1 that keeps recieving the emails
The Spammer - At it AGAIN! Attention Prime Casino, ENOUGH! I had this idiot affiliate/spammers site closed down two days ago. He is now back to spamming the same people all over again and he has set up new sites. He is only doing this because Prime Casino has failed to act by terminating his affiliate agreement. Prime Casino is now completely responsible for this idiots actions. By not terminating his affiliate agreement Prime Casino is condoning his spamming activities. Every person who suffered abuse through spam or harm to their business names as GoneGambling and Platinum Play Casino did two days ago, is now going through the same thing over again as a direct result of Prime Casino not terminating their affiliate agreement with this spammer. If Prime Casino made it not worthwhile for this idiot to trade off other businesses reputations and send out spam, he wouldn't do it. It's been two days and Prime Casino has failed to address my email of complaint apart from an acknowledgement that one of my emails was received. Why has the casino been silent on this matter? It is apparent that Prime Casino has made the choice that a few fast dollars from a spam campaign are more valuable than the casino reputation. In the two days that Prime Casino has been inactive on this matter the idiot spammer has rebuilt his promotional pages on different domains and started mailing out again. Perhaps Prime Casino should look at employing this guy directly? He certainly works faster than anyone at the casino does. GoneGambling will now warn our entire membership and other interested parties that Prime Casino are nothing short of Rogues. The time for the casino to act has passed. The time to act was before this idiot spammer set up new sites and started spamming again. I have copied interested parties on this email. I have also blind copied GoneGambling members who forwarded complaints to me about the spamming and abuse of the GoneGambling name two days ago. My advise to them is to check to see if they are once again being spammed and for them to take out their wrath on Prime Casino. WARN everyone that Prime Casino are Rogues. They condone theft of business names and spamming. As Prime Casino condones it's affiliates spamming, then Prime Casino will have to accept the consequences and venom that most people who are tired of being on the receiving end of spam will direct at them. Multiple copies of the following email has been received by me in the past few hours. Note the different senders names. From: "Alfred Napier" <damon@hidalgoconsultores.com> To: <emailus@gg.com> Sent: Saturday, April 12, 2008 7:30 AM Subject: Spend a dollar and win a fortune!!! > Grab your 500% Deposit Bonus now! > Games Internet - World Casinos, the best online casinos! > > One of the premier brands at Peak Entertainment and is quite simply an online wagering paradise! > > xhttp://goldworldwin.tk/ > > One of the most dynamic and exciting slots venues available! > > Great online casinoroom has been opened!

From: "Drew Harding" <kellym@axxtime.com> To: <emailus@gg.com> Sent: Saturday, April 12, 2008 1:23 AM Subject: [POTENTIAL SPAM] As cool as Las Vegas! From: "Freida Beasley" <bweier4@wncgasprices.com> To: <john@gg.com> Sent: Saturday, April 12, 2008 1:23 AM Subject: [POTENTIAL SPAM] Fill your account with free no purchase $275 cash! I hope everyone receiving this email will do whatever they can to help stamp out this ROGUE activity that Prime Casino is happy to earn profits from. A new email just sent to Prime Casino and copied to other interested parties: Prime Casino, I am still being spammed by your affiliate. I assume thousands of other people are still being spammed as well. It's ironic that in forwarding any of the spam emails to you they are rejected by your filter system. I again suggest that management of Prime Casino takes a serious look at the comments at the following link: http://www.gonegambling.com/casino-g.../1-396722.html ATTENTION Fortune Lounge: The Prime Casino affiliate who is spamming has been using Platinum Play Casino as the subject line of some of his emails. He cloaked the emails as having been sent by GoneGambling with a subject line of Platinum Play. He was in fact trying to trade off the reputations of both our sites. Prime Casino has not acted to stop the affiliate so one can only assume they are enjoying the income the spamming and trading off our reputations is bringing in. I have lodged a complaint with eCOGRA and I suggest that Fortune Lounge does the same thing. I doubt it will stop Prime Casino though. It appears that anything goes as far as they are concerned. I'm happy to play the game their way if that's what it takes The email above was sent to TWO Prime Casino addresses. It just bounced back from one. It's hard to complain to these guys. I'm sorry to inform you that the message below could not be delivered. When delivery was attempted, the following error was returned. <support@primecasino.co.uk>: host mail.primecasino.co.uk[91.102.64.138] said: 550 Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable or not local (in reply to RCPT TO command) I am still being spammed. I just sent this new email to Prime Casino, the hosts of the spammers sites and other parties: Attention Prime Casino. One of your affiliates will not stop spamming. It just keeps coming in. I have had enough. He's using different names and different email addresses. He even used the name of MY site in his efforts to gain credibility. He also used the name of Platinum Play Casino as the subject line of his emails. His sites are nothing but a direct download for YOUR casino. Help or support links at his sites all start to download the casino. His sites are: xhttp://gold-worldwin.tk/ xhttp://world-vipgoldgames.tk/ xhttp://worldvipgoldgames.tk/ xhttp://worldvipgold-games.tk/ xhttp://goldworldwin.tk/ Your help in stopping this spammer would be appreciated as this matter will escalate further. You can already read about it here: http://www.gonegambling.com/casino-g...ain/index.html I charge that this guy only keeps spamming because: 1. Prime Casino has not yet closed his Affiliate account. 2. The hosts of his sites allow them to remain up even though they have been notified of his continued spamming and trading off the reputations of other sites and businesses. The above two reasons clearly show that Prime Casino and the hosts of the spammers sites condone his spamming and are happy to give him reason to continue it. That is not a position or stance I would take with my business. I value my good name far more than that. Last edited by Casinomeister; 16th April 2008 at 09:23 PM. Reason: killed spam URLs |

Why is Prime casino even brought up?
If you download the setup file and run it from any of the above links that you've posted, you'll see that the setup file is for Gold VIP Club casino.

Why is Prime casino even brought up?
Quote:
It seems that having large exposure as well as numerous posts in this forum still does not attract users of this forum to contact me/us directly when an issue of this measure comes up. Please believe me that this is a massive head-ache for us and something we would much prefer to avoid, and in most cases do, by shutting down inconsiderate spammers. However, this case is a little more difficult to contend with as we have no connection to the spammer other than the assumptions made that have got us into this position. That being said, numerous posts have been made suggesting Prime be rogued, yet not one Private Message to myself or any other representative asking for details or comment on the subject at hand. I will state categorically that we have had nothing to do with the recent spam going out. It has been taken to an extreme level by our "friends" at GoneGambling on removing us from the site, prior to further investigation from themselves, knowing full well that we are doing everything we are able to to find out how we are being connected to this and who is instigating. Please feel assured that we are doing everything in our power to correct this situation. Again, if you would like to investigate yourself, rather than passing on assumptions, please click the links and inform me personally of any possible connection you may find to Prime. Further to the above stated, I would like to thank "winbig" again for using just a little brain power in seeing who is actually behind this. On first look, this was immediately apparent to myself, so I can only assume that those passing on rogue suggestions simply cut and paste the ridiculous e-mails without actually looking a little further into the issue. Again, if there is any issue that you would like to raise, it would be highly appreciated if we were contacted first, via e-mail or this wonderful forum tool and connection device setup by The Meister himself, and asked directly before being slammed. Another example of uninformed users trying to create a hype scene. I will be happy to update everyone on resolution once we have been able to get to the bottom of this and make responsible those who are. Feel free to PM me for any further questions. |
