VegasCasino.io Abruptly Closing!

[Blockchayn 46]

Vegascasino.io announced via email yesterday (10/16) that they would be abruptly closing the website on October 24th 2019. 

We regret to inform you that our website will be shutting down from October 24, 2019. After that date, your Vegas Casino player account will no longer be accessible.

 

Furthermore, no games will be available to play on Vegas Casino as of October 16. You can withdraw any outstanding real money balance in your player account until the final shut-down of the site on October 24. You don't have any balance.

 

We would like to thank you for playing with us. Vegas Casino could not have been as successful as it was without your loyalty.

 

I had some remaining balances on a couple of my accounts and I immediately notified them they said the balances would be sent in the coming days but that doesn’t leave me with much assurance. I suspect they may be trying to hit the road without making anymore

the payments. In my opinion 8 days is not at all sufficient time from notification of closing to total shutdown. That’s just absurd. Very deceptive. 
 

if anyone has balances I would suggest they withdraw them immediately!

Nice to know. Its really sad that Vegacasino.io is shutting down and we are no longer able to play here. I hope they will be back again in near future. Looking forward to that. 

They have been managed very poorly for quite some time. It is highly unlikely that they will ever be back. 
 

Their sister site is bitcasino.io and they were supposedly victims of a recent “email software” attack which sent requests to all of their users to send money to an address and claimed to be paying out some ridiculously high % of interest. 

Although the email came from their official email server using their real email address, they claimed it was a hacker whom had fabricated the email and put a hostile address into the body of the email which reappropriated funds. I was not at all convinced of this highly suspect behavior. Now after seeing that vegascasino.io is going out of business I believe i think it seems likely that bitcasino.io is also on the verge of going out of business and may have even been desperate enough to send out the fake email themselves, with the intentions of scamming their users and claiming themselves to be a victim of a hack. Not a chance in hell was their third party email software hacked by someone who then was able to fabricate a nearly identical email request. They are totally full of BS if you ask me.

They are apparently refusing to send the small amount of bitcoin that I have on my account balance.  Sounds like they are pulling an exit scam due to their unwillingness or inability to pay their outstanding balances.

Yes but they have to manually approve withdraws still as the system is not using smart contracts. They have not approved my withdraw request as of right now so that remains to be seen. Everytime i email them they keep giving me excuses and stall tactics.

Although I was not a player there, from everything you have told us about them and their sister casino... it seems bluntly clear that this is another scam exit...

This is why I keep saying to people to not leave money in any third party websites... people reply, oh I trust X, or I trust Y.... this can happen with any site...

They never paid me. I sent another few emails to their admin and eventually he responded and said by today or tomorrow I would receive my funds. The problem is that I was previously told it would be before tomorrow. Now there’s more delays and excuses. Now the date is changing. And conveniently the website goes offline soon and therefore they will not have to answer to anyone. But I also know they operate bitcasino.io so I can harass them indefinitely if the funds aren’t sent as promised.

They paid me at 4:55am this morning. Idk what the delay was about. Slackers.  They did pay me my funds tho so that wraps it up. Site closed for good now.

Exit scam. This is more like banks closing without paying out depositors fund. This will go without anyone high in crypto speaking up against this type of scam. You are closing, fine but send or crypto on your platform back to us by allowing us withdraw it

Yes, I think you're right. They just shut down without any notice. VegasCasino was a trusted, legit platform. I don't know they did that.

The reason for the closure may be due to the loss or mismanagement of the VegasCasino platform and this is what made it decide to close or other problems.

I think a lot of users who use VegasCasino will be sad about the shutdown of this casino and I don't know the reason for that exactly.
