Protecting Yourself from Fake Sites and Scams

Published: 2026-09-19 · Guides

Fake sites and impersonator accounts using popular betting brand names are a common way to steal users' passwords and money. This guide covers the most common scams and how to protect yourself.

Common Scams

  • Fake login pages: Addresses that look almost identical to the real site, differing by a letter. Whatever you enter goes straight to the scammers.
  • Fake social media and Telegram accounts: Accounts using the brand logo that DM you offering a "bonus", "special link" or "support".
  • "Sure bet" / "fixed match" sellers: Anyone selling tips on supposedly pre-decided results is always a scam.
  • Fake support agents: People asking for your password, SMS code or a money transfer to "verify" or "unlock" your account.
  • Account buying or renting offers: Using accounts opened in someone else's name is illegal and can cost you your money.

How to Protect Yourself

  1. Before logging in, check the domain letter by letter and look for the padlock (SSL) icon.
  2. Don't click login links sent by email, SMS or direct message.
  3. Never share your password, SMS codes or card details; genuine support teams never ask for them.
  4. Use a different, strong password for every site and turn on two-step verification if available.
  5. If an offer seems too good to be true, it probably is.

If Something Looks Suspicious

  • If you entered your details on a fake page, change your password immediately.
  • If you shared card details, call your bank right away.
  • Report the suspicious account or link to support: Contact.
