Thank you for the advice. I am pretty confident I know what the answer is to what I am about to ask. Being that I am somewhat new to the online casino concept, I figured that I should consult with some veterans/experts in this field. I am wanting to verify the credibility and legitimacy of "www.skyslots.pro" online casino.
They offered a $1000 no deposit sign up bonus (with a $1000 wagering condition on the bonus amount). I ended up with a substantially larger amount after clearing the bonus wagering condition. When I was attempting to withdraw the winnings is when I started becoming suspicious of the site. They require you to make a min. $100 USD deposit as the final step of their "verification process".
I noticed they only accept a variety of crypto types for making deposits on their site as well. The live support agent I spoke to told me that completing a deposit transaction is how/when they are able to verify a players details and info. Seeing that deposits go directly to their crypto wallet address on the deposit screen and not through Sumsub prior made me wonder how they could obtain personal info through an anonymous crypto transaction. They claim verification is done through Sumsub (I am not experienced at all with but understand what it is for), so i started the process of making a deposit on the site. I went through the deposit process up to confirming and having to send my money to them. I say nothing about nor redirected to Sumsub to submit my personal info and documents. This was a big red flag to me
Seeing that Curaçao Licensing states that casinos licensed by them are required to collect very specific physical types of text and photographic documentation from a player. In some cases even more corroborating documents or proof of a players identity are required for high risk or suspicious situations. Seeing this website not operating as their license instructs to, combined with their entire verification process being unlike any other online casinos that I have experienced prior (I have completed at least ten verifications processes on other sites)
I was looking to get some expert opinions about this situation before I decide to risk losing my deposit amount for a chance to collect a much larger sum, or don't make a deposit and be wondering if I walked away from something that was legit and I actually could have collected. Any advice or input regarding is welcomed, thanks in adavance!
