Apologies for the necroposting: I was advised to post in this thread. I have archived any links that are linked to shady websites and used the archives in this post, so there's no need to worry about it being redirected or the evidence covered up. I have found evidence that GameART is linked to Mirage Corporation N.V, an online casino operator that has had pirated games on their casinos in the past. First of all, Blue Ocean Gaming and GameART are ran by the same group, as they have the exact same telephone numbers on their websites to contact, and they also share the same seemingly little used mail server. Blue Ocean Gaming was named by the rep of 77Jackpot/1bet2bet/Tobwin, a known rogue group of casinos, as the group that provided it with software that included pirated NetEnt and Novomatic games, according to Casinomeister, here:
The Best and Worst of Online Gambling for 2014.
Blue Ocean Gaming also provides slots as "Xplosive Slots", and GameART provides slots as "Lucky" for Australian players. Blue Ocean Gaming's website was registered by a "Skinise Migola" according to this list:
, and it shows that websites like touchvegas dot com which were registered by the same person, which have the exact same phrase, namely "Our friendly customer service team is on hand to answer any questions you may have 24 hours a day, 7 days a week" - as Mirage Corporation N.V owned casinos have. A casino website called infopoint dot info which is ran by them had pirated games from c27 dot games, which is ran by the OutcomeBet group, known for hosting and selling pirated games.
By the way, if you went to the Mirage Corporation N.V owned casinos from the UK, you would see an image that says you're restricted. If you viewed one image on some of the websites, you would see it hosted on a cloudfront website, this one:
, and if you removed the media and images bit you'd see this:
. "TheGameProvider dot com" is a website which appears to be likely ran by the same people behind Mirage Corporation N.V and GameART, as it has images and skins of casinos linked to them, and on at least one occasion a Mirage Corporation N.V casino ran a pirated game from that website, and which was exposed here:
.
GameART runs their games from a "Hypergaming Server", created by a co-founder of GameART, and which has a website here:
. The website says that third parties are allowed to "control jackpots, freespins and configure games". I don't think a casino should be allowed to control a jackpot, since fraud would be so easy to do, and it's a wonder that GameART hasn't realised that. Maybe it's a feature for operators of rogue casinos? The co-founder of GameART in question is called Saverio Castellano and he is currently the CEO of Eurasian Gaming, which seems to be GameART but for players from Asia. GamingWorld dot net appears to be another website for Eurasian Gaming, if anyone wants to know.
By the way, speaking of something odd, a website connected to the rogue casino operators Gammix has plenty of subdomains, most of which are connected to their operations, and a list of them is here:
. Two of these subdomains have content from Mirage Corporation N.V, and the first one is here:
- it has content from Lucky Play Star Casino, and the second one is here:
- for some bizarre reason igp dot cloud has left the entire "media/skins" bit in the apache server viewable by anyone, and it contains a list of casinos I believe strongly are tied to the same people behind GameART and Mirage Corporation N.V.
Two other software providers I believe are ran by the same group are SlotVision - which has the same Google Analytics ID as websites connected to the group - and Laifacai, which is connected to BCW affiliates, who are in turn connected to AKPokerClub, which was linked to the group by sharing the same registrant as some old casino websites ran by the group. The group in question likely also ran an online poker network which went bust, according to this:
(which talks about the debts they left employees, players, and such in) and this:
(which lists bellugo dot com as being part of the online poker network in an image).
