KPS99TV reports that an anonymous user recently told this outlet that, while placing sports bets on a website associated with “皇冠”, 4 consecutive orders initially shown as accepted were later voided by the platform as “cancelled—abnormal betting”, involving approximately 20,000 in total (currency unspecified).
Screenshots supplied by the user show that the orders were initially marked as successful bets but were later cancelled unilaterally by the platform. The user says the platform did not specify the alleged violation or provide its assessment criteria, applicable rules or grounds for the backend processing.
The user questions whether the platform applies irregular settlement practices in which “winning orders are cancelled while losing orders are debited normally”. The user said: “The website collects money normally when accepting bets, but once a user wins, it cancels the order on the grounds of ‘abnormal betting’; if the user loses, it debits the money normally. Such double standards raise doubts about whether the platform uses backend rules to process orders in ways that harm users’ financial interests.”
The user has retained screenshots of the 4 orders, order numbers, betting times, transaction records, transfer receipts, the platform’s web address and communications with customer service, and is preparing to submit the materials to public security authorities.
The user hopes public security authorities will investigate the website thoroughly, focusing on the following questions:
The platform’s actual operator and the people who control it;
The website’s servers, technical maintenance personnel and agency relationships;
The accounts receiving users’ deposits and the eventual destination of those funds;
Whether winning orders are deliberately cancelled;
Whether illegal online gambling, fraud or other unlawful or criminal activity is suspected;
Whether other users have had similar experiences.
The user hopes the relevant authorities will intervene promptly and investigate the platform’s operators, receiving accounts, fund flows and order-settlement mechanisms under the law, to establish whether there has been deliberate refusal to pay, manipulation of orders or other unlawful or criminal conduct, and to prevent further losses.
By publication time, the platform concerned had not publicly responded to these issues. Claims of “fraud”, “misappropriation of funds” and “backend manipulation” currently come mainly from the anonymous user’s complaint and the materials supplied, and have not been verified through an investigation by competent authorities. Whether any conduct ultimately constitutes an offence must be determined by public security investigations and judicial findings.
KPS99TV reminds readers that online gambling may be unlawful and that participants’ money and personal information cannot be reliably protected. The public should stay away from such activities. Anyone who discovers possible criminal conduct or suffers financial loss should preserve order records, transaction histories, chats and transfer receipts, and report promptly to public security authorities.
