I understand it being a scam, but why drag russia into this? 
The post starter is in Russia maybe and presumed it's a Russian ran betting site. The point here is not about nationality and it will not change to that, it's about how 250$ was lost from the 1xbet account As far as i know that 1xbet do accept btc.This site is big and heavily invested on marketing stuff thats why its hard to believe about the issue of $250 lost. lol
