“We give you $1000 to play at an online casino! In case of loss, you will lose only our funds, and in case of success — we will pay you 40% of the net winnings”, - this is the message on the social network that attracted the 34-year-old resident of Ternopil region. However, he encountered scammers.

As a result, instead of winning more than 40,000 hryvnias, the man lost his own 12,000 hryvnias.

How do intruders act?
● Offer to play at a “risk-free” casino.
● The victim of fraudsters really starts to win by transferring ever larger amounts. ● When trying to withdraw winnings, they are asked to pay an additional commission. ● Over time, fraudsters disappear.

How to protect yourself?
● Do not transfer funds to unknown accounts.
● Remove “spam” offers from strangers about dubious earnings. ● Contact the police.
