Exclamation SCAM ALERT: BlackDog Sportsbook falsely claiming to be part of 5Dimes

SCAM ALERT: BlackDog Sportsbook falsely claiming to be part of 5Dimes

Players report being solicited by the book which uses the website BlackDogEG.com and the slogan "Got Credit?" Blackdog is attempting to gain business by misrepresenting itself and offering players the ability to bet without deposits. This scam usually ends with bettors being unable to collect winnings, often after already having paid the book for previous losing weeks.

5Dimes users will receive a warning message from customer service by email with the following statement:
It has come to our attention that another sportsbook has been soliciting customers claiming to be associated with 5Dimes. 5Dimes is NOT associated or partnered with any other offshore sportsbook. Any company stating they are working with 5Dimes in any manner is a fraudulent scam trying to steal player's money using the 5Dimes good name. There is only ONE 5Dimes. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this matter, please contact 5Dimes customer service.

Blackdog will never be on 5dimes level. Not even close. Blackdog will be out of business soon if not already.

SBR poster Hogie2010 reported he received a $409 payment from Blackdog back on 3-07-08. Other than this feedback I don't see anything else on them in regards to payments.

Why do you capitalize each word in a sentence?
