If it’s an email, first thing to do is click on the sender, this will give you the address the message was sent from. These are usually a dead giveaway. Some bollocks like. [email protected]. It should then be obvious that the message isn’t genuine. Delete or forward to the appropriate phishing dept.
Not so much a scam as sharp practice. The negative reviews are accurate. As far as I could work out the strategy seemed to be to make it so difficult and frustrating to withdraw your money that you gave up. Fortunately I lost my deposit so there was nothing to withdraw. I only found out that my account had been frozen soon after placing my one and only bet when I looked to see what the cash out pay out would be. https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.betstars.uk
They do pay by Bank Transfer these days which is paid in about a week instead of couple of months for cheque however they will not be contacting you by e-mail but by snail mail .Then you log into HMRC site and iirc you need a code which is on your letter to get payt sent.
I had very similar recently but that told me "Your Internet provider has noticed illegal activity on the Internet server and will therefore disconnect your service within 48 hrs. If you did not commit illegal acts please contact us on 012345678 so we can restore your access" Think the fact that they didn't know who was my ISP ,that they thought there was just 1 server for the whole of the interwebby malarkey and it was my ISP rather than Mr Plod contacting me about all my illegal activities made me just a tad suspicious that the call may not be entirely genuine.
Indian scammers use billshit because they assume people are ignorant about computer sciences. Lots will commission pop ups then tell you you isp has been hacked. You cannot hack an isp full stop. If any of you boys wish to scam the scammers I can lead you to the tools you need to succeed plus many software items on line that will protect you whilst you are having fun with our indian friends. Just ask.
If you want to play with these ****s be sure to download a virtual box and configure it to your PC. When you get more experienced you can log on to their Pc and their server and download or delete all their files via 'Team Player'. Love playing with these idiots, they know feck all about computer systems. https://www.virtualbox.org
I once received a very touching E-Mail rom a couple of adorable young Nigerian Princesses explaining that their father had sadly died and their evil mother had stolen their inheritance and was wasting it on some young stud For some reason under Nigerian law they could do nothing so they needed someone like me to sort it for them Of course I agreed to help them as any gentleman would I was introduced by E-Mail to the head of the family, the family lawyer, and the very helpful bank manager from their bank We all got on very well for a couple of days until I asked them for some money to fly out to Nigeria to deal with them all personally For some reason I never heard from them again
