Credit Card scams

Most Visa and MasterCard -based credit cards do not want you using their cards to deposit at gambling sites. For this reason, gambling sites have taken to creating multiple "fronts" to make it appear that the deposits are going to non-gambling organizations.

Trouble is some of those fronts treat your payment as a cash advance instead of a purchase. So, without any warning, you may be charged transaction fees of $10 and up per deposit.

Luckily, sites are allowing "eChecks" from your bank account. So, you can avoid that scam.

I haven't deposited more thann $100 since I ve been gambling online. I lost that but made it back about three times over. Watching moth brother squander my mother's last bit of money to live on turned me off to wreckless gambling; Not that I don't have my own expensive faults>
