Warning signs

Red flags we see again and again

If a platform shows even one of these, stop and check it before you send money.

Deposits go to a personal accountLegit operators take payment through a registered company, not an agent's own bank account.
You must pay to withdrawAn "unlock fee", "tax" or "turnover top-up" before payout is the most common trap.
Guaranteed wins or fixed returnsNo real game can promise daily profit. Promises like this are built to pull in bigger deposits.
Support only on Telegram or WhatsAppNo company email, address or phone line means nobody to hold responsible.
The web address keeps changingFrequent "new links" usually mean the old domain was blocked or reported.
A bonus you can never cash outHuge welcome bonuses with rules that keep growing are designed to lock your balance.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How does Scam Checker rate a money game?

Each platform is scored out of 100 on six signals: licensing, withdrawal complaints, ownership, domain history, payment channels and website security. A score of 80 or more is likely legit, 50 to 79 means use caution, and below 50 is high risk.

Is a website with a padlock (SSL) safe?

Not on its own. A padlock only means the connection is encrypted. Scam sites get free SSL certificates too, which is why website security is only 10 of the 100 points.

What should I do if I can't withdraw my winnings?

Do not pay any "unlock fee" or "tax" to release your balance. Stop depositing, save your records, call your bank, and report it to the National Scam Response Centre at 997.

Is Scam Checker free?

Yes. Checking a site and reading reports is free and needs no account.

How we stay fair

Scores come from evidence, not payment

Every rating uses only the six signals above. Platforms cannot pay to raise a score or remove a complaint. If we have any business relationship with a platform we rate, it is stated clearly on that platform's report.
