Problems with CoinBet casino?
APRIL 19, 2014 3:02 PM / LEAVE A COMMENT

It has come to our attention that players are having problems with a bitcoin casino called CoinBet.cc, according to threads on BitcoinTalk.org

We will not be linking to them in this post, because we do not want to send an alleged scam site any traffic. However, in the spirit of full disclosure, CoinBet has previously advertised on this site, and paid for promotional posts on our feeds on reddit and other sites, but it is now our recommendation that players avoid depositing on CoinBet for the time being. We prefer not to jump to conclusions or put an advertiser on blast like this, but its not looking good for them right now.

UPDATE: It has now come to our attention that on the date of one of our recent press releases, one of Coinbets players coincidentally received an email from a Coinbet executive that just so happens to have the same name of BitcoinSources CTO. Its not clear at this time whether they actually have someone on staff with the same name, or if they just lifted the name directly out of our press release to lend legitimacy to their scam (the latter seems much more likely), but we are investigating either way and will post if we find more info. BitcoinSource has no affiliation with Coinbet, other than the fact that they purchased paid advertising on our news portal and feeds.

We highly recommend that the bitcoin community avoid Coinbet like the plague, and withdraw any funds deposited there immediately.

If anyone from Coinbet, or any one else with any info, would like to contact us with any information that could help in our investigation, please do so using the contact us page on this site. We would especially like to hear from John Bauer, the apparent owner of Coinbet and VP of operations, but we will not be holding our breath.

can any of you all who scours for internet data find a link between anything digital from coinbet and anything digital from bitcoinsource? IPs, servers, domain regs, addresses, locations, etc etc.

the only thing right now is the name michael carter which overlaps.
