So I just saw some posts in the Playolg thread, To which I posted my views on this subject after reading some of the posts.
I will say this. I really think that they should ban VPN usage with all online casinos. Reason being is if online casinos have security systems in place that detect unauthorised access to players accounts from hackers who try and login to a players account from a different country that is not the same as the country that is listed for the players account. That would trigger their security systems would it not? (Reps input could and would be greatly needed here to clarify these statements to be partially true or not?).
So say an online casinos allows players to use a VPN but only if it is a VPN server in the same country, like VS rep told me a few days ago when I asked their rep. They said I can use a VPN if I use a VPN server in the same country as the country I am in which is the UK.
But what if those casinos also had systems that detect the IP is different as well. As we all know a lot of casinos also have over the top security systems in place, not all but some do. And sometimes when we use a mobile phone for example that gives us a different IP than our dynamic IP we have with our ISP in our desktop PC's. That would also trigger their security systems to kick in and suspend/block/lock a players account would it not?
So if say a hacker was to hack a players account or login to a players account and they knew the country that player was from then they could by pass the security systems and fool the systems and it would then result in the hacker not being found out. As that casinos policy on VPN usage was relaxed enough to allow VPN usage if it is in the same country as the players account.
So for all those people in countries that can not play certain games from certain providers just too much of a risk? Yes I know like I said and others said that some casinos allow VPN usage. Be it in a relaxed way or they do not care what so ever. If that is the case, I would not trust or like to play in those casinos if that is the case. Because they risk putting our accounts at greater risk as well. As it would also show me that maybe they do not have any security systems in place either. The main concern I would have is if a hacker tried to hack my accounts would be the risk of all my private personal info and address full name, etc etc Which is obviously a gold mine of information to a hacker.
So hence Casinos should be 100% responsible for protecting player data, and I 100% think that all online casinos should ban VPN usage.
My 2 cents anyway. Now lets see what others think as well.
Also Any rep for any casino can also post and explain their policies for the casinos they work for etc etc and their take and views and opinions etc etc.
Would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
