How do you get smoked on credit. BlackDog isn't offering 15K Credit lines. This isn't the Movies. If they extend you a nickel or a dime in credit and you can't pay then you don't deserve to be gambling.

Default Scam Alert Was Issued Back On July 24th Of 2007

That was the last report of misleading sales reps that we received. There hasn't been any reports of dipsutes or slow-pay. BD has offered references that we will speak with, has allowed us to index them in the sportsbook photo section, and I will be meeting with ownership in July. As a post-up book BlackDog may enter the rating guide at C- but we have not finished the rating process. We expect to do so by early next week.

sbr had some issues with the way our sales reps were marketing our product that is why the alerts were issued, these issues were addressed and as bill stated there have been no dispute or payment claims.

SCAM ALERT: BlackDog Sportsbook falsely claiming to be part of 5Dimes
Great link here buddy !!!


Too bad all the bashers claims are false, they are still in business and no complaints from any posters about being stiffed.

Love how people bash new things and then when they are wrong they still keep posting same stuff

These claims are a JOKE. I have never heard one non-payment claim.. Let me tell you the only thing where BlackDog fell short were betting options. I can't believe how many strides they have made in just one or two weeks. They now carry 1st 5 innings MLB, Team Totals in NBA, Better website. They have done nothing but improve on an already good product. What more could you want.

So they didn't misrepresent themselves as part of 5D?

Any poster that's been around the block knows that this is a risky book. Aces Gold and BetPanAM had much better ratings and backing and stole millions from players. One guy got taken for $250,000.

acesgold - Interview with AG CEO clarifies book transfer agreements - Noteworthy: AG's book transfer agreements are unchanged since agreement with Olympic was rescinded 09/01. acesgold is reinstated on the top 20 list.

SBR promoted Betpanam, having them on their recommended list with a B+ rating up until the day the book defaulted.
Blackdog had some very shady marketing tactics and the newbies love the book.

Explain how they can be risky and how you can have $250K stolen from you with a credit book with limits.

Why would you guys question SBR for their alert about the site? Soliciting a credit site from the Bet Royal client database does seem shady at the very least. SBR is trying to protect us from the many new and mischievous sites that pop up every day. I have no problems with them in alerting us to possible scams. Once the site has been confirmed as credible, only then should they not be considered a scam site...

Warning people is one thing, to post SCAM ALERT is another .Since nothing has been proven the thread should be removed or title changed.

Agree with the Nut--the title should be taken down--leaves false impression. Hey Big black--some marketing advice?? Post a video of Lenny being beaten in an alley outside his favorite watering hole (while his bodyguard joins in) and then add MB and NT and watch people stream on board. You will have your loyal 1000 clients in two days!! lolol

Did you get a free acct bud? I trust your opinion since you're like my extended fam, and if they really give a free $250 to try them out, why not, I'll sign up. Can't see how it could hurt. Plus, I got that lifelock. No one is stealing my identity.
