Online Gambling / Betting

A betting app or website takes your money easily. When you try to take winnings out, it asks for more money or blocks you.

How Scam Works?

This chat is made up. It shows how the trick usually sounds. It is not a real message. Do not reply, and do not send money.

  1. Scam message

    Your win is ready. Pay 10% tax in the app and the full amount will come to your account in 20 minutes.

  2. What you might say

    Why can’t you deduct the tax from the winnings?

  3. Scam message

    The system cannot. If you miss this window, the win is cancelled.

A real withdrawal does not need you to pay more money in. Do not send a “tax” to unlock winnings.

  1. 01

    Winning looks easy

    The app shows profits. A small amount may even reach your bank, so you trust it.

  2. 02

    The exit is locked

    A tax, a fee, or a bigger deposit is required before you can take the rest.

  3. 03

    The extra payment is the scam

    The winnings were never yours to collect. Stop paying. Call 1930 if you already sent money.
