Here are the most common characteristics of casinos that aren&#8217;t legitimate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowing what to look for can help you avoid being scammed if you gamble online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bonuses_That_Are_Too_Good_To_Be_True%E2%80%A6\"><\/span>Bonuses That Are Too Good To Be True\u2026<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2026They probably are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fake casinos often entice new players with large welcome bonuses and extravagant free spin offers. But once players meet the wagering requirements they find the terms make withdrawal nearly impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Look for these specific offers:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Welcome Bonuses that exceed 500%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Claims of &#8220;no wagering requirements&#8221;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Promotions that guarantee wins<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pressure to deposit and play immediately<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Legitimate casinos offer competitive bonuses in reasonable amounts. Also take the time to read the terms before accepting any bonus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"No_License_Or_Verification_Can_Be_Found\"><\/span>No License Or Verification Can Be Found<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>All real online casinos must be licensed by a gambling authority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This license should be visible on their website, typically at the bottom. Research shows that 25% of scam casino sites claim to be licensed and registered in countries that do not exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To check if a casino is licensed:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Find the license number on the casino website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to the licensing authority&#8217;s website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Look up the casino by the name or license number.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Verify that the license is valid.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you cannot find verifiable licensing information, do not play there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Low-Quality_Website\"><\/span>Low-Quality Website<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Running a legitimate online casino costs a lot of money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Operators of scam casinos will often skip investing in their website.

While waiting for a response, navigate the site and see if other questions come to mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re unable to reach a real person pre-deposit, FIND SOMETHING ELSE TO PLAY AT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reasonable response time is expected.
