the lengths some affiliates go to, a site written and mocked up to look like a (financial) news report complete with shills and BS - funny to us, but I wonder how many people fall for it - enough I guess that it keeps going.
Clearly geo targeted, as keywords like Toronto, Ontario and Canada are replaced elsewhere with Mumbai, India, Norwegian etc etc. Boy that Laura Spender gets around - shes from Toronto, Mumbai et al.
I've removed casino name, links, affy site, redirecting photos etc.
And a CM accredited casino to boot - sure its an affy, but good lords - dont casinos really care?
All the commnets had photos appearing to come from facebook though linked to the casino and aff page.
I know none of this is new - but I'd have thought all these big crackdowns everyone is going through (SoW, Bonus terms) this type of thing would be a big priority
Thoughts?
CA Online Casino CEO Fired After A $2,700,00 Mistake
April 20th 2018
If you live in Canada and want to earn some extra money easily, then this may be the most exciting article you'll ever read.
Outdated Link Removed
Peter Newsted, the CEO of Casino X, was fired immediately after the mistake was discovered
Trusted online casino operator Casino X has made a costly mistake after launching their online casino in Canada that caused the company to lose hundreds of thousands of pounds to its players.
This glitch has already lost them close to $2,700,000 CAD in free spins and cash prizes and the loss is going to continue to increase until 27th April when their new customer agreement takes effect.
What Exactly Happened?
Ollie Edwards, an experienced casino player from Ontario who was one of the first players to discover the loophole explains,
"Casino Xs new promotional campaign for new customers in Canada was supposed to give 100% of additional free credits to all new customers that deposited at least $10 to their account. Unfortunately for them, they had a wording error in the agreement so each new customer can get up to 150 free spins for a $10 first deposit.
As a result, people are using the free credits and hitting jackpots that is costing Casino X heavily. What is making matters even worse for the company is that there is no way for them to fix it due to the strict gambling laws in Canada which require casino companies to notify at least 7 days in advance before changing their terms and conditions. So getting these bonuses for free is completely legal."
Thousands of Winners
One company's mistake can be incredibly profitable for everyone else. One lucky woman, 28-year-old Laura Spencer from Toronto, registered with Casino X and claimed 150 free slot spins after depositing just $10 and won the progressive jackpot of $75,000.
"I used to dread waking up each morning and going to a job that I hate, all to just be able to cover my rent and bills, now I have so much freedom."
Laura Spencer from Toronto is one of the lucky ones who won the progressive jackpot
New CEO
Casino X CEO in Canada, Peter Newsted was fired immediately after the incident and the new manager Hayden Connor has a lot of fixing to do. Connor responded to our enquiry via email,
"This has been a very unfortunate and costly mistake for the company but we have to learn from it and move on. The Canadian market is very important to us and we are here to stay even after this costly error for the company."
Here is how CAs are claiming their free money:
1. They sign up on the Casino X page
2. They will make a deposit of at least $10 to verify their account and then receive 150 free spins to win money - completely legal!
UPDATE (April 26th):
As of April 26th, the FREE bonus loophole at Casino X is still available.

My friend told me about this the other day and I thought he was joking. Can't believe this is actually true. I'm going to give this a shot. With all the scams online it's hard to find a legit offers now a days.
