This is why I recommend only using regulated sites and not crypto backed gambling sites.
Then this is not the industry for you to talk to.
Of course there will always be a choice to engage with registered gambling sites and/or those which are fiat based but why are we here? We have our own reasons but most of the time it is avoiding taxes and to be able to still gamble despite of activity restrictions in some countries.
Are there any industry wherein scam is not present? There will always be as long as there are people who falls on it. There are crypto based but reputable platforms we can bet with if it is just securing the platform we will deposit our money with. No one wants to be scammed right? It is just our playful minds which pushes us to add risk, on existing risk. Scam platforms will be always interesting and that is to of course, get their victims. But even if there are many cases, this is not to be certain for us to move out from this industry because we always have options to choose from if we really want to gamble.
