Just got an e-mail from these "clowns" - offering the earth + $250 just for sending one player...!
DESPERATE and DODGY are the words which spring to mind!

There were a string of complaints on the forum about just ONE of their clip-joints:
Monarch Casino (Top Game): http://www.casinomeister.com/forums/...ad.php?t=59956
Bonus Complaint Monarchs Online Casino: http://www.casinomeister.com/forums/...ad.php?t=60905
Bitch and Moan monarch casino isnt very nice! : http://www.casinomeister.com/forums/...ad.php?t=63589
Monarch's Casino - What kind of sick mind games are they playing?! http://www.casinomeister.com/forums/...ad.php?t=61679

My advice: AVOID these guys.

Yes they offered me a 50k prepay to list them. Once I listened to all their sales speeches and said I would give them a try, my last email to them was to ask when they would be sending the prepay and I haven't heard a peep since. They use to email at least once a week if not twice. Then they get me to bite on the 50k prepay and now they have gone MIA. Ha!

Ummm $50,000 listing fee, wouldn't that in itself indicate your were dealing with scamming goofs :rolleyes:

That would be a massive pre-pay. I would be out buying a new car after that one ;)

I may need to change our pre-pay strategy.

Never bothered with them because the # of times I was contacted to promote them I found a little desperate.
I'm pretty sure I was getting cd's in the mail from them as well.

I think this place bought an affiliate list and signed us up with accounts and then started hammering us with spam! I told them several times I did not sign up, I do NOT intend to market them but I still
get emails..

I assumed it GPWA. Seems the solicitations started once they were listed over there.

I really don't think GPWA would do that. In fact, since they have that 'GPWA Sponsor Email' that gets sent out once per term for their highest sponsors - I think they would protect their email base very highly. Wouldn't make sense for GPWA to give away their email lists.

Perhaps. Tbh, email spam is not such a big deal to me.

The only reason I even mention it is I posted at GPWA back on 6/14/2014 that I received a snail mail(er) and wondered where they got my mailing address from. The first email I can find from them was sent 1/31/2013. I may have deleted any previous ones.

"Can anyone tell me why is Firebrand Predatory?"

One more reason that will lead to the same answer:
