Sportsbook email

Being a fraud manager I find this very suspicious. If you receive it do not click on the link. They have no reason to believe my birthday is incorrect - or to even have my birthday at all.

Dear Debi,
It has come to our attention that the date of birth listed in your account appears to be incorrect. We are required to update this information as part of our standard security policy. Please take a moment to click on the link provided below and submit your correct details.

Thank you for your time,

I only played Sportsbook when they offered me free money. Likewise with Bookmaker, whom I think got my phone number from Sportsbook.

I doubt I will be back to either, I did not like the sites.

re: Sportsbook email poker

I had posted a message already about sportsbook.....had joined it but noticed that they seem to have "house" players that seem to play very poor poker but fill out hands at amazing rates. When I began to suspect these players i would make comments to them and could never get them to respond. I think they are part of sportsbook's program and are designed so that the site can get much more than the rake. Note that I've played at other money sites b4 (Titan, Mansion and Pacific b4 they banned US players) and never felt that they were crooked. But with Sportsbook......I would avoid them at all costs.

I wasn't suggesting there is anything wrong with sportsbook - I do not think the email came from them at all.

You may want to forward it on to Sportsbook support. I'm sure they would want to know about it. Looks like a phishing scam.

I had an email this morning from a nice gentleman representing the Swiss lottery. I have won 2 million, and he will transfer the money to me as soon as I give him my bank details.

Now that`s an amazing piece of luck, especially considering that I never bought a ticket for the Swiss lottery.
