Sports Betting and Share Scam rocks West Australia

Sports Betting and Share Scam rocks West Australia

More than $200,000 has been lost on sports betting and share trading scams in West Australia. Grant is a business owner in WA and fell victim of the scam last year when his business was not doing well.

He got in after receiving a call from a company that sold a trading program that they claimed would double his money in a year’s time. He spent $37,000 on this software and later realized that this was a scam.

What lured in the customers?

They promised to have the money doubled in the first year and if this was not done, they would have the principal amount refunded. They claimed that the software would advice you on the shares to buy and sell.

They made this business deal look foolproof since they promised their clients that all money would be refunded if no profits were made. This was one of the key features that lured more and more customers to the deal.

Another person that was duped was Cameron but for him it was on sports. His story starts when he filled an online survey which led to being contacted by a sports betting agency. The agency said that they would make him huge sums of money since they had professional punters who would place bets on his behalf.

Cameron part with $7,000 and was convinced that a given amount of his money would be used in paying professional bettors to watch these races and find the right horses to bet on. He was bought the story since he had not done betting before and thought that this would be an incredible way of making him money. Cameron pulled the pin after a couple of months on realizing that no profits were being made. He tried getting his money back without any success.

Customer protection warns of more and more scams

A statement made by the customer protection said that there are more and more scams on the rise. They advised people to be wary of the phone calls they receive and deals presented to them. People should look into independent entities for advice and not the sales people selling information that seem too sweet to be true.

All the guarantees that might be offered are all misrepresentations.

A new system put in place to monitor suspicious Sports Betting Activities

A new system put in place to monitor suspicious Sports Betting Activities

Match fixing is a worldwide threat to sports and nothing regarding the competition will be in a position to work unless the officials, players and fans are sure of the results. Groups in the industry are coming up with a new system that is designed to assist in alerting in case of any suspicious betting activities that would arise in a match.

The World Lottery Association and European Lotteries launched the Global Lottery Monitoring System (GLMS). Sportradar is powering the system and will make it possible for groups making use of it to make communications and issue alerts on any suspicious matches. The President to European Lotteries said that the EL and WLA have their commitment towards upholding honest betting and integrity around the globe.

This detection of suspicious betting has been a tool which will be used in bringing match fixing to an end before it starts or have betting stopped before a match starts. The system will make void if there is unusual volumes of betting coming in or if betting is proving to go against what the bookie might be expecting.

A recent report by the European Sports Security Association (ESSA) reveals that tennis seems to be the sport that is often associated with betting activities that are suspicious. The ESSA has for a while been monitoring betting activities and submitting alerts; over the first three months of 2015 they made 27 tennis match alerts and 17 of these were said to be suspicious after investigations were carried out. The tennis alerts were more than half of the alerts generated by the organization. Most of the remaining alerts were from soccer; others were from snooker, table tennis and snooker and they had at least one suspicious betting pattern in the quarter.

Comments from the WLA president said that this new GLMS will assist the gaming industry in corporation with the world’s sports magazine. Through this system, the organization will be in a position to work with IOC and FIFA in making sure that all information on irregular betting is addressed.

Informative betting tips to defeat those dog days

Informative betting tips to defeat those dog days

BA and NHL are each a couple of games into their finals in the championship series. This means that you as a bettor are in several games in the dog days of summer when the sportsbooks are giving rivals the Guantanamo Bay menu.

Baseball always serves as the main course until when the football kicks off but this will seem like eating the same kind of food for 3 months. If you need to spice up your plate and have a change of the menu, I am here to advice you on how to do it. There are games out there that you could bet on even though they are not so attractive and you might not be watching them in your regular television cable.

Anyone who is great at betting will tell you that betting value is in these outlining events and this is because they do not offer wall to wall coverage like major sports events would do.

In this post, we will give you some interesting betting tips that will take you through the summer period.

Betting on WNBA

The WNBA just started on its 19the season. You might have a negative perspective on the league but this is one league you should be betting on.

One thing you should is hitting the overnight numbers. You will notice that the WNBA lines usually move during the game-day, the earlier you bet the better the value your spreads and totals will be.

When betting on the WNBA, do not put too much value on the players, this league does not have many players who might have major impact on the game when injured.

Smart bets on CFL

The Canadian Football League will start late June and will offer some exciting action each week.

For the CFL, you need to read a lot from their local newspaper websites so as to get extra information you hardly get from ESPN and other sports channels.

This is a highly competitive game and has major football players on the teams. This means you should put much emphasis on the injuries. The starters on the offense and defence are of significance.

Golf betting

For most bettors who wager on golf will rely on the major leagues like the PGA and Masters. What they do not know is that these big leagues prove to be hard to bet on. This is because there are many people betting on the game and the oddsmakers will have some tight odds on these games.

As a smart golf bettor, you should have your eye on the course, as well as, the current form. This is because a course can fit the golfer’s game and have their eye well which makes it possible for te player to have great score all year round.

You should have a good combination of players favoured by the course, as well as, the underdogs with good value.

Mistakes to avoid as you bet on Belmont

Mistakes to avoid as you bet on Belmont

Most of the times, a horse will win the first two legs of a Triple Crown and as it arrives to the Belmont race, there is a lot of attention to it and has historical fame if it is able to attain the final victory.

This attention comes with huge amounts of money. The money that has been bet on Belmont this year is about $200 million. This is higher than the entire nation’s worth in the horse races that are bet on; on a normal Saturday.

Most of this money comes from dumb bets made by people who hardly know what they are doing. Through this, they do less and make way for smarter bettors to take advantage and make money from them.

We do not want you to make any silly bets, this is the reason we have this post prepared for you to make the best from Belmont and avoid some of the common mistakes you are likely to make.

Bets to avoid

One of the bets to avoid would be betting on gray horses. You should not bet on gray horses as their odds are whack. They are likely to stand out because of their colour which makes it likely for people to bet on them but they are not faster than the others. From research by top tipsters, it has been found that gray horses do not pay off in the long run.

The dumb bettors like to bet on the lottery ticket kinds of risks by placing bets on the biggest long shot. In lay man’s language, a long shot is the worst horse in the race. As you place your Belmont horse race bet, you need to avoid the long shot bets as you will lose your money.

As a smart and rational bettor, you are not supposed to believe that number seven is lucky, newbie bettors will usually bet on horse race number 7. To save your money, you need to avoid betting on horse number seven since the odds for the horse are too out of line.

I usually find betting on the biggest favourite a sad thing. This is usually a bad trade since everyone is looking at making easy money from what the news headlines are reading.

With these tips, I wish you the best for the bets you place. Always remember to place your bets with the bookies we have reviewed on our site.
