Beware Phishing Attempts Disguised as Online Casino Invites

E-mails for King Dice Casino are allegedly sent by spammers seeking to reap such info as credit card numbers and addresses from unsuspecting Internet casino customers.

A scheme to lure online casino patrons to websites that may install malware and are phishing operations is continuing. E-mails for King Dice Casino are allegedly sent by spammers seeking to reap such info as credit card numbers and addresses from unsuspecting Internet casino customers.

Last month, Steve Morgan, casino manager at Club World online casinos, sent out an e-mail warning patrons not to respond to a message from King Dice Casino, claiming affiliation with Club World and asking players to re-register at the new site. Morgan advised customers that the site was not in any way connected with Club World, and was a scam known as "phishing," a practice of sending fake e-mails searching for identity information.

Letters are still being received with invitations to join King Dice Casino. The message is poorly written and lacks proper syntax. It reads like a three-card monte dealer talks, "We respect all our clients and give them chance to make real money staying at home. Nothing ventured, nothing gained! Whatever, you don't lose anything! Just believe in your success and open the world of enormous money."

Yet there is danger unsuspecting Internet gambling patrons could be tricked by the e-mail. The letter promises a special system of bonuses, and offers $3500 for signing.
