|
|
Now that congress has passed this act preventing credit card companies from working with online sports books and casinos, I'm wondering how any of you make your bets online, and how the sports books pay out if they can't pay it to your credit card?
I'm sure there is a way around it, I"m just wondering what it is.
Also, I'm curious who in the online sports betting world is reputable enough for you to send your money to them and know it's safe? |

I'm sure someone who actually does sports betting online would be more knowledgeable here, but from what I remember of the act that just passed, this of course only applies to American credit card companies. So if you have an offshore bank account or credit card, you should still be able to transact as before.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong or there's a better way to do it. |

You can get an account from NETeller, then fund that account through your bank. Most gambling sites accept payment through NETeller. Call it low level money laundering.

| Maybe we should start a separate thread on money laundering. How do you to it and get away with it? |

| Exactly as Nomoregame7's said. I currently use Sportsbook and go through Neteller. Use your CC or bank acct to neteller and then neteller to the sites. Govt can't do anything about neteller because its used for other transactions sort of like paypal/western union so they can't necessarily prove that it's from gambling. |

Why bet online when you can go to your local bookie. You can even bet money that you don't even have.  |

FYI-
Lakers are 13-8-1 against the spread and 14-8 on the over. Good news if you happen to bet on your favorite basketball team. |

14-8-1 and 15-8 on the over.
Hmmm, looks like you can clean up by parlaying the lakers to the Over... |
