VPN services are useful when your location, as it is shown by your IP address is banned/prohibited by the platform...

Useful, probably. Risky, definitely, especially when it involves money, which gambling does. If you are hiding or masking your IP address because you are playing from a location which is banned or blacklisted, that is immediately a violation of the site's terms and conditions, including Sportsbet.io's.

As stated in 2.16 under number 2 or Binding Declarations from Sportsbet.io's general terms and conditions, updated late December of last year, the site has the right to detect IP masking, considered a prohibited technique, which is what VPN is basically doing.^[1]

Yes, mate the trick sound simple and harmless but again there is always an underline risk that involve in such an act, especially the financial implication, in some cases, this technique may work but in most cases, it results in regret when your deposit is already on the site and you are caught as an illegal access user due to the restrictions this will ultimately lead to a very sad ending.

This is why I rather stay away than try to access prohibited casino sites or any other site that provides online services.

Maybe that is why many people get stuck in a casino after they deposit or want to withdraw because the casino caught that as illegal as it stated on their term conditions.
If that is the case, that will be our mistake as we are still trying to use that casino to gamble even though we have many casinos that allow us to play without using VPN.
Those people who still want to try to gamble on that site are because they read that many people can win easily, making them curious and follow those people's steps.
But that will only give them a risk if they do not realize it.
