Is goldenmirage.top casino legit? (“pay to WD” scam)

[ZlewisC]

This casino wants me to deposit 100$ for final step kyc verification. It has licence and the whole site seems legit. But I'm always skeptical.

A casino wants you to DEPOSIT $100 as part of completing the KYC process?!?!?!

 

[maxd]

“seems legit” based on what? No licensing info on offer, you can’t see the Terms or policies without registering, etc. I’d say “seems like a casino” is about the only assumption you can reasonably make here and that’s a pretty low bar.

if the url ends in .top thats probably as much as you need to know.

this is a scam site with fake numbers, its a carbon copy of Betstakez *snipped* which was discussed a few days ago.

How did you get funneled towards this casino, I'm curious.

I didn't notice this last time round but they are official partners with argentina national team and red bull racing lmfao.

Could honestly make a good drinking game around these scam sites and their fibs.

That fact alone should tell you to run away, fast.

winbets.sbs is the same forced deposit garbage, they gave a friend a $777 ND deposit, had Pragmatic slots set up to behave in very odd ways (3 back to back max wins, a Big Bass that literally gave 40 back to back fishermen for $98,000 payout etc), then demanded a $120 deposit to "verify his information".

Ah interesting so almost a bit like a Nigerian scam where you come into lots of money but just need to pay something first to help them send the transaction.

Winbets is also another clone so not just the same forced deposit but the same everything.

Probably worth reporting these guys to cloudflare although cut off one head another will appear.

I've never heard of these scams till people posted about them so I'm curious where or how they are advertising. Do you know how your friend found them?

FWIW these “pay to WD” scams are coming in fast and furious. 6 months ago this nonsense was pretty much unknown to us, now we’re getting almost one a day. The MO seems pretty similar across the board:

• offer unusually high NDB or FDB.
• tell the player they’ve won “millions!”.
• start hitting the player up for “verification” and “validation” deposits.
• repeat the above until it flames out.
• burn the site and fire up a new one.
• rinse and repeat.

I’m no gambler but from what I can see the whole scam depends on the player’s wish to believe that the pot of gold is there, ready for the taking. Why not deposit 50 or 100 if the chance is there that the heavens will open and gold coins will rain down? There will be a golden shower all right, it’s just a question of how soggy and smelly it needs to get before reality starts to kick in.

And obviously if you make the deposit with your debit card you can just dispute it later
