So User's reviews is a must before participating in any kind of casino because every reviews from other gamblers is our way of research to determine that casino is worthy enough and trusted to gamble on their casino. But as a beginner you need to bet a small amount first in order to prevent such scam casino then if it works then you can bet a high value to earn a high amount as well.
Not even only on gambling sites, but all other sites that scammers can have a type of it.

Only reviewing the site can not do it, making more research about it would be better too and also seeking for the helpmof people about a site on forum like bitcointalk would help.
Base on my observation as an old time user here in the forum. Scam casino usually don’t invest much on license and promotion here and social that’s why they are easy to spot now compared before that most of the casino even trusted don’t prioritize license since most of the games being offered way back then was just a probably fair game like dice. But now even newbie players can easily spot them and just go to the trusted casino which always active in promotion here.
