Case summary

The player from Japan had won approximately 2,800,000 yen at k8 Casino, but his winnings were confiscated due to alleged illegal gameplay, with no clear explanation provided. He expressed frustration over repetitive responses from live support and questioned the casino's legitimacy. After reviewing the case, it was determined that the player's actions had violated the casino's terms by engaging in coordinated arbitrage activities and claiming bonuses through multiple accounts. Consequently, the confiscation of his winnings was found to be justified based on the evidence provided by the casino.

I played at k8 Casino and won about 2,800,000 yen, but I received a notice from live support stating that I was using the game illegally and all of my winnings were confiscated.

I then contacted live support, but they never answered my questions about the reason and just sent me the same boilerplate response for every question.

If you violate any rules, they won't even tell you which rules you violated.

When I received the bonus and played, there was an examination for the bonus application, but even though I passed that and played, I won and they confiscated the money, which I think is pretty bad behavior for a casino.

Isn't this a scam site where if you win, you confiscate it and if you lose, you keep it?

I am also puzzled as to why such a casino has a rating of 8.2 on casinoguru.


I am so frustrated and want my winnings back so I would like to ask casinoguru to mediate.

Hello, thanks for your patience on this matter.


According to a notice from the risk control department, the player had been repeatedly claiming bonuses using multiple accounts and engaging in coordinated arbitrage activities through electronic promotional games. Therefore, the bonus-related profits have been deducted. Proof has been provided in private to Guru representative Peter. Thank you for your cooperation.

Thank you for providing me with the information K8 Casino representative.

Dear Shojijin09, I have been in communication with the casino representative and have been presented with evidence indicating the existence of multiple accounts associated with you. As per industry standards, an individual is permitted to open and operate only a single account in their own name, utilizing their own funds.

Given that your actions constitute a clear violation of the casino’s established terms and conditions, we find the measures taken by the casino to be both appropriate and justified.

Thank you for your understanding.

Kind regards,

Peter
