New MG - or new Scam? Vegas International

**KasinoKing** · 1st February 2007, 01:32 AM

In a moment of madness I clicked on a link in an obvious spam mail - and got taken to the 'home page' of "Vegas International Casino" (See below).

It looks just like any number of MG home pages - including the MG & other usual logo's along the bottom - but everything on the page, including all the tabs at the top (you can see which ones I clicked) bring up a download window with a URL which looks like an affy link...

This casino is not listed on Microgaming's site.

Typing in the home URL gives a private page - no access...

VERY LOUD ALARM BELLS RING!

Anyone know anything about this place?

I can't read the URL well enough.

What's it say in "about us"?

IP location is Russia. Linked with the999casino.com. All links on website lead to casino.exe download. Many spamming complaints.

I'm surprised that people aren't catching what this truly is. It's the spammers that's been hitting many many affiliate programs lately.

If it's a landing page with some bogus casino name & the only link the page gives is for a casino setup program, it's fake....

It's only a fake casino name, but the casinos they are spamming are very real.

I've been getting these spam emails for these casinos for a couple of weeks now and try to block them but they change their email address each time and I get it again.

The domain is vegasinternationalcasino.com, not vegasinternational.com .

It's a proxy for Ruby Fortune.

So do I and I can't escape it. The casinos change too. Why doesn't ecorga do something about this. It's very irritating and there is no way to unsubscribe from it.

eCOGRA probably does not even know about this.
