I don't know where you get that from. All the articles apart from the very first one and the "Instadebit" one are still there.
 
Letter to ECogra

This is the letter I just sent to ECogra. We are individually only one person, but together maybe we have a voice. ECogra NEEDS to address this issue ASAP!! And everyone here who agrees on that, needs to let them know. JMO.

Hello,

I am writing to you in reference to the latest marketing tactics being employed by the Jackpot Factory group of casinos, who bear the ECogra seal of approval.

I am sure by now that you have been made aware of this issue currently being discussed at Casinomeister. I have long been a supporter of and player at a couple of the Jackpot Factory casinos. I considered them to be one of the best and most upstanding and trustworthy groups out there. My attitude has now changed drastically. The marketing tactics that they have employed to garner search engine hits are reprehensible. They have directly targeted:

The poor
The elderly
People with arthritis
People with serious financial problems
People with ADHD
People suffering the death of a loved one
People in a state of chronic depression

These are only a few. This is nothing short of predatory. They are preying on the weak, and most especially, the weak of mind. Strong, decisive action needs to be taken, and taken quickly. The message that this sends out to the online gaming community is pure sleaze. I am at a loss for words to even express my disgust.

What you as one of their governing agencies decide to do in this matter, will speak volumes for your own credibility. You say you stand behind responsible gaming, and that all casinos carrying your Seal, do the same. This is the most irresponsible act I have ever seen in four years.

You need to take action quickly, and issue a public statement as well, letting the community know where you stand on this. You need to ensure that this never happens again. If you have to make an example of Jackpot Factory to get this message across, so be it.

The online gaming community is watching and waiting to see where you stand on this.

Kind Regards,

Lisa xxxxx
 
Talk about "hypocrites"...

From the Jackpot Factory webpage:

While most people gamble for entertainment purposes, The Jackpot Factory acknowledges that gambling can create problems and harm some individuals. These problems can range from over-spending to a pathological gambling addiction. The Jackpot Factory is committed to creating a responsible gambling environment by implementing and maintaining eCOGRAs responsible gaming requirements, for the benefit of both players and staff.

Doesn't sound like they are "committed to creating a responsible gambling environment" to me... :mad:
 
One for the road.

Well here's a more realistic inspirational story for them, scratched on the Toilet wall at All Crackpots casino:-


Here I sit broken hearted,
Got three Rams, and they only f**ted!

I am sure we all know which "money making" slot inspired this one:D

Still, into the third working day after the holiday and the mess is still there, albeit now well and truly swept under the rug of redirected links to the home page (crafty b***ers!, do they take us for idiots!)

I suppose they think this bodge is OK as Googlebots are not likely to end up with a compulsive gambling problem!

They may be silent on the issue now because eCogra is nipping at their a** already!!
 
Hypocrisy

You nailed that MrR!!! This was the headline to just one of their fine pieces of creative writing.

Want Guilt Free Overspending? Gamble At These Online Casinos

They admit that it's one of the problems of gambling addiction, yet they target it directly with the search engines? This is just too bizarre even for my warped little mind.

After the doctor, I go and play on line casinos

I had found a lump on my breast a few weeks ago when I was doing my routine breast examination. I went to the doctor who assured me it was probably nothing but when it was taken away for inspection, it was found to be cancerous. Naturally I was devastated. But actually, a more accurate description would be that I was in shock. I could not believe it, and I could not cope with it. I simply said, "okay, fine," to the bearer of bad news (which of course it was neither) and went home to log on to my computer. I decided to go to my favorite site - the on line casinos. Playing on line casinos had always been a fun activity for me and right now, playing on line casinos seemed like the best thing to do.

I can cope better with on line casinos

Well, I knew I had to have treatment obviously. In fact, while playing the on line casinos an interesting thing happened. I realized there were certain things I had to do. I actually felt like the on line casinos were helping the shock lessen - I was more able to focus on the things I had to do - the on line casinos were helping me deal. I was not so terrified anymore - I was scared, indeed - but I was now able to cope and start the process of healing.

My Grandfather and His Secret about Casino Online

'Casino online', the will read, 'Casino online has enabled me to leave all of my grandchildren in a comfortable financial position'. There was a gasp of amazement as we all sat in the solicitor's office frozen, waiting for the figure to be announced. 'I have amassed quite a considerable fortune from playing casino online in the last 2 years and now that I am in my twilight years, I have no time to use this money for anything useful to me. Therefore the following amount will be split equally between my 3 grandchildren, to be used as they wish.' $11,000,000.

Casino Online Made us a Fortune

The solicitor's eyes twinkled as he read the amount and saw us all turn quite white. It appears your grandfather was one of the most successful casino online players in the world, he said. Before your grandfather died, he confessed to me how much he had enjoyed playing casino online and how he had set up a particular system for himself that had worked extraordinarily well. So now, ladies and gentlemen, the only thing left for us to do, is to divide this amount between you all, say thank you to casino online and that will conclude out business.

Daily Dose of Best Online Casino

I was dreading my retirement. After the stimulation of work for so many years, I was so afraid that I would spend years and years being utterly bored. How wrong I was. Nobody had told me about best online casino before I retired. Had I known about best online casino I would not have suffered so many months agonizing about my forthcoming retirement. Now I wish that I had been able to retire years ago. Instead of having a daily dose of medication to keep me sane like I did before, I now have a daily dose of best online casino to keep me sane.

Best Online Casino so Exciting

I have never enjoyed such excitement in my entire life. I used to play cards many years ago, before my fellow card players passed away but it was not in the least bit as exciting as best online casino. I go to sleep at night dreaming of the fun that I experienced playing best online casino during the day and anticipating the next day's enjoyment on best online casino. It is such a pity that my friends are not still alive to share this experience of best online casino. How I would love to explain to them the games of video poker, roulette, blackjack and slots and the many other games that I enjoy on best online casino.

I'm OK with this one! Clearly this group wholeheartedly encourage the sport of bonus abuse among it's patrons. This is excellent news, we can abuse the hell out of their promos and they would not dream of pulling "a stunt" if we manage to scrape by to the letter on the T & C.

Clearly, they have set me a new challenge, I must aspire to leave my darling nieces the sum of 11,000,000 extracted from All Slots and All Jackpots over the remaining 40 or so years of active gambling left to me, and they will be OK with that, hey, it's a player testimonial, if this grandad can do it, why not me? or any one of us for that matter. Beats playing at all those scumbag casinos that seem to object to players ripping off all the bonuses and having the utter cheek to cash out before the Rams have f**ted!
 
Based on his previous "open door" record I am confident that your email will receive Andrew Beveridge's personal attention, Lisa.

He is aware of this disgraceful incident, because I and others have already been in contact with him.

The apology and (apparent) firings of those responsible by JF, notwithstanding, I agree with you that this case demands timeous attention by eCOGRA as it does not to my mind meet the eCOGRA standards..
 
Firstly thanks to bpb for informing all of us what Jackpot Factory are doing concerning marketing their online casinos.

I am, as an affiliate of All Slots Casino quite sickened that a Casino I like, promote and thought I could trust and respect has stooped so low as this.

How can an online casino support responsible gambling, yet publish some of the BS that appears on their sites. Why is this taking an age to remove from their websites? As such, until we get decisive action and a clear explanation as to why this happened This includes action being taken against the manager responsible for this, I have redirected all my Jackpot Factory Links on my sites to other casinos.

It is not hard to do so. Sure they have more than one webserver serving the casino website, for load balancing. But just pull the articles and then run the replication software. Simple! This will then remove all the offending articles in a matter of seconds, from ALL WEBSERVERS servicing All Slots.com

Also how the hell did these articles get on the webservers in the first place? I know from when I was the IT Manager for Ladbrokes, responsible for the Ladbrokes Casino and Ladbrokes Poker Servers - which included the Webservers for the website. That no articles can get on the respective websites unless signed off by a senior manager responsible for the casino/poker product.

Heads should roll over this!

eCOGRA also have to take firm and decisive action in my view as well, this should also include considering the removal of the eCOGRA Seal from these casinos in the Jackpot Factory Group. Failure to take action will send out IMO a very worrying message as far as eCOGRA's role in the industry is concerned. This is in addition to their inaction over the 888 BlogSpamming incidences, which also IMO should have got 888 stripped of their eCOGRA Seal.

eCogra aware

I have had a reply from Tex at eCogra, and they are aware of this, consider this to be a serious matter, and I now find that all the links in this thread now produce "page not found" returns on the All Slots and All Jackpots servers.

We can only wonder how it took 2 days to just fiddle with the links to stop them being easily accessed from the home page, but around 2 hours to clear out everything this morning (UK time).

We now must await the outcome of the investigation by eCogra, and compare this with the explanations offered by Jackpot Factory over the last couple of days.
How this will affect their business in the long term remains to be seen, and a year or two later we should ask them "Was it worth it?" If they say "Yes", then the industry needs to change.

I agree on both counts, but you can be sure that neither CON, nor Jackpot Factory, will be losing their eCOGRA seals, now or at any future time.

Hey, maybe they'll be told to "never do it again" and be required to make a charitable donation, like Kahnawake "did" with Golden Palace?

My mother died of a breast cancer. My wife's mother too. And many other beloved women I knew have suffered in their flesh because of this horrible mutilation.
Many of them were killed by the cancer.
Targeting ill women and trying to take an advantage of their suffering is disgusting.
Those guys are BASTARDS !
 
I rate this as much worse than the blog spamming, considering it aims to attract players by dubious means. Though both obviously have an effect on SERPs, this incident is way more offensive and distasteful and directly preys on people who have weaknesses.
 
Vesuvio, you are right. The links in SlotsJunkie's last post are all still active.

Alexandre, I think that this whole issue has hit a sore spot with everyone. They have preyed on people's vulnerabilities and weaknesses, and it is vile.
 
I agree on both counts, but you can be sure that neither CON, nor Jackpot Factory, will be losing their eCOGRA seals, now or at any future time.

I have written to Andrew Beveridge concerning both this afternoon. I will let you know the response.

I completely agree Spear with you. However both incidences in my opinion do not do eCOGRA any favours at all.
 
Webzcas, I meant to ask before.....do you know if anyone has posted about this issue at CAP? I really think this is something that affiliates need to be fully aware of. I can only hope that at least some have as much integrity as both you and Bryan in immediately removing any and all links to these sites.

No not yet, I checked this morning. The Affiliate Manager I spoke to yesterday concerning this issue, unfortunately he is away from the office today until the 4th June. He is a good guy and is not responsible for this mess. I know also that Spear has been in touch with him also concerning this.

I will be posting on CAP this afternoon concerning this. However I do have a lot of time for Lloyd the affiliate manager and don't want it to be perceived as a public lynching of him, as in my view, he is in no way at fault here.

Yeah - should take me about a minute or two, my systems are set up such that I can remove any advertising from this site (or theoretically, all of my sites were there to be more than one) with the flick of a switch (oops! BAD word)

Fat lotta money I make off of you :) But thanks for your support, both of you!
 
I suggest a "sleaziest marketing strategy" category for the Casinomeister awards. This should be a very hotly contested competition, only 5 months of the year have passed and we have already had Golden Palace disrupting the Winter Olympics, 888.com blog spamming and Jackpot Factory pulling this stunt.

Ecogra should have suspended Jackpot Factory at the least, their e-mails of being aware of the situation and taking it very seriously are meaningless without some action to back it up. Unless something is done very soon, i.e., today, I nominate ecogra for "toothless watchdog" award.

I agree GrandMaster. That was my thought precisely, maybe a six-month suspension, with their behaviour in the interim reviewed after that time. I believe someone also suggested having to donate a sum of money to a gambling addiction program. I would fully support that as well, and I don't mean $500 either, something substantial.

To be honest, I have been very disappointed with ecogra since the whole 888 BlogSpamming issue, where no public action was taken by them against 888. However I am waiting to hear from Andrew in response to my email I sent earlier this afternoon.

It is too early to make a judgement call on ecogra until they have been given a chance to respond IMO.
 
Slow down... LOL...

I am sure eCOGRA is considering what action they have to take. However, all decisions of this sort surely need to be made by the board members, not just one individual - so this might take a little time - and it's only been two days (or 3).

However - no action would be a huge mistake, and in my opinion, a disservice to the industry. And naturally I would also recommend this be considered very urgently.
 
Webzcas said:

Agreed on that point as well Webzcas. I was referring to my thoughts on "possible" action that could be taken (in my post).
 
Andrew Beveridge has been aware of this issue at least since Tuesday 10 a.m. BST. Ecogra is not a big organisation where every decision has to go through multiple committees. Two days should be ample time to come up with a statement.

Depressed? Suicidal? No More Fear With the Casino

What the casino does for me

My sister and my girlfriend had both suffered from depression for many years. It was devastating to watch such a mood ruin lives like the depression did for these two important people in my life. But they both said the same thing; there was nothing to be done about it and they were just taking their lives day by day, one day at a time. But I still always maintained that there had to be a solution; something had to help them. The problem was, my sister was suffering so badly that she had even contemplated suicide. One day I discovered something that made me really happy (even though I was basically quite a happy individual); playing on the casino. When I was at the casino it was like I was transported to another world. There was nothing I could not do when at the casino. It did not matter how bad my day had been at work, or how pathetic I felt, the casino obliterated it all, making me feel like I could cope with anything.

I introduce the casino to my sister and girlfriend

It was then it occurred to me. Maybe the casino was the solution that could help my sister and my girlfriend. Maybe the casino could give them the lift they needed. So I told them about the casino. They both tried it and both found different games at the casino that really helped them. My sister loved to play black jack (she always got to 19, 20 or 21) and my girlfriend loved how the luck of keno worked. The casino was great for them both, and a potential solution for their depression.

Unfrigginreal!! They should be rogued, blacklisted, seal removed...whatever, just for that one alone. Actually using the term suicidal? This literally makes me sick to my stomach.

This is definitely unreal... reminds me of those infomercials on TV where "X-drug helped me live again" "y-drug improved my sex life" and so on... the only difference being that the "ask your doctor" disclaimer is nowhere to be found...

My sentiments, exactly. I can imagine a few worse things a casino could do, but not many.

No need to ask a doctor. It's well known that playing slots will lower cholesterol:

Play slots and please your doctor

My doctor was always saying the same thing. Since I had private health insurance through my company, I had to be examined every few months to see if the policy would change. And each time it was the same. The doctor would say "you're in pretty good shape Mike, but you have to do something to lower your cholesterol." Each time I would try and change my diet, but to no avail. So I kept racking my brain to think of something.

My mate Daniel said that playing slots had, incredibly, lowered his cholesterol. He couldn't understand how the slots had had such an impact, but the results were there in black and white - slots were helping him. Since playing slots regularly, his cholesterol had slipped down to the exact right number. He suggested I play slots. So I did. And playing slots had the same impact on me. Boy, my doctor would be pleased, I was sure, when I next went back. He would be all for those slots!

Lower cholesterol thanks to slots

Well, slots worked for me like they worked for Daniel. When I went back for my examination, my doctor said, "my, my, my Mike, I don't have to tell you to lower your cholesterol today. What's been your secret?" he asked. "Oh, I've been playing slots," I answered nonchalantly. And I saw he was happy as a smile spread across his face.

Flash slots reduce cholesterol naturally:

Cholesterol is reduced naturally with flash slot machines

I had high cholesterol. Okay, who cares? So what's new? But it was irritating. It ran in my family and although I was told there was so much I could do about it, it seemed like whatever I tried to do, just did not work. Nothing helped at all. I was always going to conferences on lowering cholesterol and reading books about it. I told this to my doctor when I went for a check up. You know what you need Nick? he asked. I think you ve been trying too hard to reduce your cholesterol. You have to find a way to do this in a fun way. It sounded good but I was confused . How can I do that? I asked. One thing you can try is flash slot machines. A lot of my patients have found that flash slot machines really help them. It seems they do not even have to try to reduce their cholesterol when they play flash slot machines. It just happens naturally, he said.

I said I would try flash slot machines

I told the doctor I would try flash slot machines. It sounds good to me, I said. And it did. Why not? Why shouldn't I change my attitude and use flash slot machines to help reduce my cholesterol rather than eating broccoli and spinach? So I did and it worked. My cholesterol is now a perfect level.
And playing at online casinos can help prevent a nervous breakdown - just ask Dr. Fish:

The best online casinos really help Dr Fish

Dr. Fish was a fantastic doctor. The one problem with being a fantastic doctor was that you were invariably also a very popular doctor. This was difficult because everyone wanted to see you and take a piece of you away...at least that was how Dr. Fish felt, before discovering the best online casinos. He actually felt like he was headed for a nervous breakdown. He wanted to help everyone but as a result, he was constantly stressed. One night at home, he was playing around on the Internet, when he came across the best online casinos. He thought he would check out these best online casinos. He did and he ended up spending the whole evening (into the early hours of the morning) playing the best online casinos. Rather than go to work exhausted from the time he had spent on the best online casinos, he went to work refreshed.

Dr Fish knows it's the best online casinos that have helped him

These days people compliment Dr. Fish on his work and his coping abilities the whole time. He's very honest with them. "I got help he said," and they expect him to tell them about some therapy he was doing. "I got help from the best online casinos," he adds and he proceeds to tell them all about the wonder of the best online casinos.

Hey Spear, do you know where I can get me some of that "x" and "y" drug? LOL...not to make light, just needed a moment of comic relief or I'm gonna scream. Still seeing red over that suicidal testimonial. Christ Almighty, what were these people thinking?
 
SlotsJunkie, you are my own private little search engine, lol. If you find more, keep posting them. Everytime you post them, I am forwarding them to ECogra. :thumbsup:
 
This is the kind of crap that rogue affiliates put up on thousands of pages for the search engines, so they can rank high. Thus when clicked on by a surfer, redirects to a rogue-ish casino without displaying the spammy garbage. Marketing of this type, soils the entire industry and fuels the anti gambling movement.

For a supposedly respectable casino to have this material on their actual website is indefensible and disgusting.

I expect no less than eCOGRA to remove all seals awarded to the Jackpot Factory Group and I am eagerly waiting for them to publically issue a statement.

Failure for eCOGRA to take firm action on this against Jackpot Factory, will be sending out the wrong message and in my eyes at least will mean they lose all credibility.
 
That's a damned good idea to give the directors some real experience of the extent and undesireability of this rubbish, Pina.

Thanks Jetset. Andrew did reply and asked that I forward any more that were found, and that were still active. So I am also just complying with his request. I am also echoing Webzcas's statement above yours in every email I send to him, it can't be stressed enough that this can NEVER happen again, and an example for the industry needs to be set.
 
How Pathetic! To even suggest that online gambling at THEIR casino would help depression or suicidal thoughts is insane! And what about people that commit suicide due to a gambling addiction? And whats worse is if someone that was suicidal because of gambing online...and if they tried to search for help that would just bring them back to a casino? I for sure will not be giving this company anymore of my money. Its just sad really it even had to go this route...

Trying an Online Casino

Get rich mad with online casinos

I had been having such a hard time of it all recently. I felt like I was going mad. Actually, to be honest, according to my psychiatrist, I was going mad. He hadn't classified me as insane, but since I was hearing voices, he was now trying out various different drugs on me to see if he could bring me back to sanity. Unfortunately - so far - nothing was working. Depressed, I logged on to online casinos. I figured if I was going to be mad, I may as well be wealthy mad and I had a good chance of making some nice money on the online casinos so I figured I should go ahead...at least whilst they were trying to determine which awful medication I was going to have to try next. The online casinos were going to be good for me, of that I was sure. Well, I was right. I did make a lot of money from the online casinos. But something else (far more interesting in the opinion of my psychiatrist) happened too...

Medication not needed thanks to online casinos

I went back to the psychiatrist, expecting to be put on some awful drugs (even though I'd actually not heard voices since I had started gambling on the online casinos). "I think you've gone sane again," he said. "What is it you've been doing?" he asked. "Playing the online casinos," I said. Shocked as he was, there was no doubt about it - the online casinos had made me sane!
 
It's like someone sat down and thought "what is the absolutely worst thing we could possibly say to ensure our reputation is forever tarnished and we are cast aside in disgust by the online gambling community?"
 
Wow. If it wasn;t so serious this would be the funniest thread i have read in a long time. Whoever writes them sure is talented- i just wish they put their talents to better use.

Big thumbs up to CM and other affiliates for taking such swift and decisive action. Hopefully Ecogra will do the same but I can't help but think thats as likely as slots lowering cholesterol.

Of course Jackpot Factory have apologised etc for it- they could hardly have tried to justify it. I would like to hear them justify making up player testimonials of any kind though as their rep here doesn't seem to have a problem with that.
