WARNING Affiliates Who Target Problem Gamblers

[dunover]

*** I have nothing against the good guys, only the scum who prey on problem gamblers.

I think we all want whats best for the player and we need to work together to eradicate these low-life setting up phoney sites with non-licenced casinos.

You mean the same scum that prey on problem gamblers, rip players off (many of whom are on or have joined this forum), pay no taxes, take unlicensed deposits and proceed to use the profits to open legitimate-looking businesses which you then knowingly choose to get in to bed with and earn money from? Then in an earlier post in this thread laugh about the fact?

Your words tell a very different story to your actions. As they also did when thePOGG made his BetBlocker thread on behalf of problem gamblers and you were straight in there telling people how they could try and get around it.

Yet again, I can't speak for other people. What they do these days is their business. I'm not involved with any projects at the moment. I have nothing negative to say about him, or the other workers. It was a great place to work.

The deal at the time with simple, commission was split 50/50. I did the web design, SEO and met with affiliate managers at Excel, Amsterdam RAI etc etc.

And I certainty didn't get 50/50 on the sale of the company

Sorry but nothing here is funny or justifiable. When you were an affiliate your links were removed here. They were not removed for fun . Its all quite insulting tbh.

 

[Nicola]

Exactly why I left the affiliate industry too toxic.

I've moved on, seems some haven't. Respectfully, this will be the last post from me in this thread as I don't want this thread derailed further from the original purpose

 

[Matti]

We have theseaffiliates in Sweden as well. If you search on Google you get several that has put "utan Spelpaus" (translated "without Gamstop) in their Title tag to attract traffic, and then list Curacao casinos.

It's fairly similar though isn't it, you were promoting a rogue casino. Thats fact. bcasino, a casino you actually started a thread about (New UK OceanBets/Affpower Sites?) then deleted the evidence you posted when you started promoting then. Very ethical. Now you aren't promoting them, why not repost the screenshots you deleted?

Perhaps an apology for accusing me of deleting evidence?

I have already spoken with Bryan on this issue last year.

How about no?
Its funny how all the other questions and statements I have made you don't answer, yet one thing that may be wrong, you jump on.
Regardless of if you deleted the images, you started a thread about one of the most rogue casinos in the history of online casinos, then a few months later you were promoting them. Funny how you were part owner of the company then suddenly when someone brings stuff like this up, you were just an employee and didn't have the final say in stuff like that.

And however good you say they are, this is still in their terms, which is against the UKGC rules

9.4. You may withdraw up to GBP 5,000 of winnings in each seven (7) day period. The GBP 5,000 of winnings is in addition to your deposit amount during this period. (For example, if you deposited GBP 5,000 in the last 7 days, you will be able to withdraw up to GPB 10,000.) We may increase this limit on a case by case basis, and through various offers and promotions on our site. Any requests exceeding this amount will be declined, and the funds returned to your balance. You may then place a new withdrawal request in-line with this limit.

 

[Nicola]

How about no?

Fine conversation over if you don't offer an apology for saying such an outrageous claim that I delete posts from June 2017. Unless I have a time machine, I don't think it is physically possible to edit a post after 30 minutes let alone three years.

If you have any actual evidence about me (Nicola Summers), my tax returns, that I am personally still receiving affiliate payments or even my UK VISA status is not legit please feel free to post. Please I invite you to search my name through Companies House in England and also Malta. You can even search my social media if you think something is amiss.

I am not a spokesperson for my ex-boss/partner, bCasino or any other casino. Those are questions you will have to ask them.

I'm not going to fall out with you or anyone else over this. That is why I am not going to post on this thread again unless somebody provides actual proof that I have done something wrong.

Actually, it was possible to remove images in the old forum by going into your personal CM account where they are stored in your uploads. Doing so would leave the 'X' thumbnail in their place where they were posted. You're right about the time for editing the text, but images could be 'borked' by removing them from your uploads so the posts wouldn't be able to show them. I can't see this facility on the new forum that came online earlier this year, but prior to that you certainly could.

If you remember the old forum, uploading was done in the posting portal and wasn't as smooth as it is now. Anything you uploaded (as opposed to linked to) would be stored in your account.

EDIT - Here's an example - the scavenger quiz I posted back in 2015. The old system would let you put images in posts and automatically attribute each with a CM link and number i.e. /member-xxx/17865/ and these would be in your personal account, like your kind of library. The post html would link back to them and bring them up, kinda like an embedded video brings YT content up - until it's not there any more.

Luckily all the tens of images I posted in this thread below 4 years ago survived the move from vbulletin.

I accept you must have been very unfortunate losing those three IF uploaded in the old way. If using an external photo link, which was harder back then than it is now with the new easy-link tools in the post menu, then those images would have been accessible again once the host had repaired itself, or could be recovered.

If you linked to the photos from your own webspace, or an image hosting site, which is how you post yours, then you could delete them 5 years after posting them. Please don't think I am stupid.

Changing over to zenforo would not affect externally hosted images. Having said that, the .org site had their domain blocked around a year ago which would explain the images not showing on here, but all you have to do is change the .org to .cc and the image should show. It doesn't.

I wouldn't expect someone just posting on a forum to know that. I would, however, expect someone who creates websites for a living to know a very basic thing like that.

I'll stick to my original statement that you deleted them thanks.

Actual proof you did something wrong? You were promoting a rogue site on your gamcheck site, and advertising it in your signature on here. Thats against the rules, there you go.

You have stated you were 50/50 in the business with your business partner. Companies house tells a different story. Just a reminder of what you said

Oh that. I was a partner in that business (50/50 share) and it wasn't my personal choice to add them back at a later date.

A partner in a business is not an employee.

You state the site was sold, and that it was covered elsewhere, yet I can find nothing to back that up, and you haven't provided a link. The company is still registered in the same name, Gamcheck is still registered in the same name, the contact details are the same, the owner is still the same.

Someone is still posting on GPWA stating they got affiliate payments a couple of weeks ago, using the casinodefence account that you used to use.



But yeah, you are being completely truthful.

What I find more heinous is to name an affiliate site GAMCHECK as it will pop up in searches for GAMCARE, GAMSTOP etc. Nobody can tell me that it was coincidence. From what I gather, the people behind GAMCHECK were/are experienced in iGaming, so they clearly knew/know what they were/are doing.

In essence, clever SEO tactics will bring up a site promoting gambling when people actually search for help in fighting their gambling addiction. Let that sink in people!!!

Personally, I find that even worse than promoting a rogue casino itself, although that is reprehensible too, because the name is geared towards getting addicts (among normal readers) to visit the affiliate site.

Some pretty serious allegations have been made against you.

Unless you can provide evidence to prove otherwise then you will be known as someone who willingly promoted a rogue casino.

As far as Im concerned not one affiliate gives a shit about gambling addicts.

 

[EkJR]

Finally got a response from the UKGC on this as below.

"In relation to your issue relating to Google we are concerned to read of the situation that you describe. I have recorded this but would ask that you provide evidence of this in order for us to escalate this to our relevant team for consideration.

Enquiry Reference 1-179419817"

I have provided numerous links to them, at least 20 different ones. So hopefully they start taking some action.

 

[colinsunderland]

Just had a look at casinomir, and I can see every UKGC licensed casino have now been removed, so well done to those who were listed for taking action. Well apart from (surprise surprise) the MTST/GIG casino, Cashmio @GiG_Alex @Cashmio Affiliate who are still listed and still have a full page review.

https:// casinomir . com/gambling-sites/cashmio-casino/

The affiliate link is working fine, so that says it all.

So that link is still live, dodgy as fuck @GiG_Alex , shows money comes before morals for you doesn't it?


Another one, with accredited casinos on the same site

top10casinowebsites . net/casinos-not-on-gamstop

@L&L-Jan @CasumoAffiliates @CasumoLouis

CAP code not being adhered to either



Seriously, I thought affiliate departments were monitoring this type of thing these days, even if not the social responsibility side of it, the CAP code compliance I would have thought would be checked.

 

[Louis]

Thanks Colin, will send it over to the affiliate managers straight away.

@GiG_Alex Should this thingie spot these kind of sites? No idea what it's scanning and alerting but could assume that violations to CPA code would be spotted

 

[Dazzauk83]

I don't play at any of the mentioned casinos,but i do play at a casino that hasn't signed up to gamstop but has a UKGC licence and withdrawals are processed and in my bank usually inside 30mins. which is why i play there.

I take it Gamstop isn't legally binding for casinos that hold a UKGC licence?

 

[Slottery]

I take it Gamstop isn't legally binding for casinos that hold a UKGC licence?

Nope, as it has it's problems flaws, it's not made mandatory yet like was planned. Majority of casinos are in it though but no legal obligations to be yet.

 

[Louis]

The affiliate has now been shut down @colinsunderland

Hello, my name is Hampus and I'm the affiliate manager at Cashmio.

We at Cashmio have been taking action on this matter and all the content about Cashmio has been removed. Our listing was removed in the spring of 2019 but the review where still there, however it's now removed.
