Hacked Account on 888.com

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
Made an account on 888.com, played a bit of blackjack was on a winning streak so made one big bet and it came in! Ended up with $6,800.

So obviously I was happy, went to town and everything was good. Tried to get on the following day kept coming up as 'you are logged on another server'.

Eventually I phoned them, they said it had been sorted, went on and...you guessed it. All gone.

They've even gone and put another £2,700 from my account onto it, and gone and blown it. Now I'm fucked!

What's the stance around this, am I likely to get it back? Feel so low :(

    Just depressed really mate.

    Went to the cash point earlier and it hadn't come out yet, do you think if I go to the bank they'll be able to stop it transferring or is it too late now?

    You can phoen your bank now to try and stop the transaction. They will have a 24 hour fraud division. If you used a credit card you should have some protection, hopefully some with a debit card as well.

    As for 888.com - I'd suggest following their advice on dealing with scams -

    If you are a victim

    First of all, don't panic. If you did click on a spoofed or suspicious email and you entered your Casino-on-Net account information, you should call our customer support staff immediately, toll-free from the US & Canada at 1-800-480-5170.
