Why do casinos still use c-f-1.com?

[winbig]

Well, it's official. Gold VIP Club is now using c-f-1.com. It's beyond me why other legit casinos use this same service, when they know they're getting lumped in with spammers. Contract or not.

These mails get sent straight to your inbox (at least for gmail) because it passes the SPF check -

Gold Vip Club

I got a snail mail giving me 21 free but I had to go to play21free.com to get the 21 free. I downloaded the casino and lost of course but when I went back to the site to check out the T&C each link led to a downlodso I googled the casino and it led me to a completely different site somewhere.

I immediately uninstalled the other casino as I remember what happened to the other poster who was refused a bonus bc of an affliate's website.

Edited to add wr they sent me via email.

Gold VIP Club will try ANYTHING. For them, using c-f-1.com might make them look "legit", since other reputable casinos also use them. The fact that the c-f-1.com service passes the SPF check is probably why so may casinos use them, however c-f-1.com just don't give a damn WHO is allowed to use their service to promote themselves, be they legitimate, spammers, or even crooks. c-f-1.com just want the MONEY, but this raises the serious question as to just HOW do these crooks and spammers come to have OUR email addresses to give to c-f-1.com in the first place. The ONLY party that SHOULD have our email addresses is c-f-1.com, because they have been given them by the reputable casinos using their service. One possible explanation for the SPAMMERS having them is that c-f-1.com offer to send out their mailings to email addresses that they have been given by these legitimate casinos.
A forum member recently posted strong evidence to support this, creating a unique email address, giving it to a casino that uses c-f-1.com, and within days the spammers managed to get hold of it, and the spam began to flow.
