Hello,

The user is detected in bonus hunting and has crossed the IP address with another user who also used the same bonus. We can enable the user to withdraw the current balance (the last deposit) and after that close the account.

The additional docs will be sent via email.

Kind regards

My account is has been open for year.

Now are you coming with this you let me play and play .

Once I tell you I have a gambling problem. You void winnings.

Also " crossed IP" if you log every IP in the world with everybody who played at your casino you can always void every winning.

I wanted to shed some light on an issue that often arises in the online world, particularly in the realm of gaming, gambling, and bonus hunting. It's about the size of IP pools, particularly in regions like Ireland.

Firstly, what's an IP pool? An IP pool refers to the range of available IP addresses within a specific region or network. In simpler terms, it's the number of unique identifiers that devices can use to connect to the internet.

Now, why does the size of this pool matter? Well, it becomes crucial in contexts where businesses aim to detect and prevent fraudulent activities such as bonus abuse or multiple account creations. The larger the IP pool, the more difficult it is to correlate users solely based on their IP addresses.

Here's where Ireland comes into play. Unlike some larger countries or regions, Ireland doesn't have a vast IP pool. In fact, it's relatively small compared to many other countries. This means that a significant number of users might end up sharing the same IP address, especially if they're using the same internet service provider.

Now, what are the implications of this small IP pool? Well, it often leads to situations where innocent users get flagged for activities they haven't engaged in. For instance, imagine two separate individuals, living in different households but sharing the same ISP, accessing the same website. They might end up using the same IP address, purely due to the limited availability of addresses in Ireland.

In the context of the online gaming or gambling industry, this can pose challenges. Users might inadvertently trigger fraud detection systems, leading to mistaken accusations of bonus abuse or other misconduct.

So, why is it important to understand this? It's crucial for businesses and service providers to implement sophisticated fraud detection mechanisms that go beyond simple IP address matching. Relying solely on IP addresses in regions with small pools like Ireland can result in unfair treatment of users who are legitimately using the service.

In conclusion, while Ireland's small IP pool presents challenges for online businesses, it's essential to recognize its limitations and develop more nuanced approaches to fraud detection. Understanding the intricacies of regional IP infrastructure can lead to fairer and more accurate identification of fraudulent activities while safeguarding the interests of genuine users.
