Unjustified complaint

REJECTED

Case summary

6 months ago

The Australian player had had an issue with a delayed withdrawal due to selfie verification problems. She had re-submitted the necessary documents but had received no response from the casino. The Complaints Team had extended the complaint timeline twice due to a lack of response from the player. After the player had provided the required information, the casino had claimed that the submitted documents were forged. Despite the player's denial of any fraudulent activity, the Complaints Team had confirmed the casino's findings after reviewing the evidence. Consequently, the complaint had been rejected due to the fraudulent actions identified.

I requested this payment ages ago and then two weeks ago they sent "Thanks for the documentation provided. However, the selfie received was not accepted by our verification system due to it being detected as edited or modified. In order to proceed with the verification, please provide a new non-altered selfie." I said I didn't know why they thought it was altered but sent another one anyway and have not heard from them since! Worried I've gotten scammed 🙁

Let me know if you want me to upload my documentation here as well or not.

Cheers,

Carly

Dear carlycrystals88,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem.

Please understand that KYC is a very important and essential process, during which the casino makes sure that the money is sent to the rightful owner. As they don't have the luxury of being able to physically see all of the players and check their identification and documents, this is the only way gambling establishments are able to complete the verification procedures. None of the serious and licensed casinos take KYC lightly.

Could you please send your selfie for us to review to my email at tomas@casino.guru

Please. send the feedback you received from the casino regarding your recent attempts to complete account verification.

I hope we will be able to help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Tomas

Hello Stefan,


There are several issues with the ID provided. In example: You can see edges that appear to be pixalated as if they had been copied and pasted into the photo. The ID shows as photoshopped. Also there were documents provided that show to be altered by the use of Adobe Photoshop and a pdf editor. Stefan, if you can please provide me an email I can send you the information, I will be more than glad to do so.

The client has already been email and informed of it as well.

Hello Stefan,


Thank you for your suggestion regarding a verification call with the player via Skype. While we appreciate your involvement and willingness to explore all options, we have reservations about proceeding with this specific approach.

Our internal verification software has already provided us with substantial evidence indicating that the player may have tampered with the pictures and documents submitted during the verification process. This evidence is a matter of concern for us.

Have you had a chance to reach out to the player to discuss the findings from the screenshots we provided? It would be greatly appreciated if you could give us insight into the player's response and perspective if you have contacted her.

Additionally, we have shared documentation demonstrating the discrepancies in the player's documents. We would be interested in hearing your expert assessment and comments on these documents. Your input will be valuable as we work toward a resolution in this case.

We appreciate your cooperation and assistance in this matter and look forward to your response and comments on the documentation we provided.

No I don't have photoshop or a pdf editor.

What are they referring to with "Have you had a chance to reach out to the player to discuss the findings from the screenshots we provided?". I haven't seen this supposed evidence so can't really explain whatever it is they're talking about.

Dear carlycrystals88,


I have reviewed the documents provided by the casino, and it is clear that they are forged. I am afraid nothing can be done from our side as such actions are considered fraudulent.


Due to the aforementioned reasons, this complaint will now be rejected. Thank you for your understanding, I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you run into any issues with this or any other casino in the future.


Kind regards,

Stefan
