Got a call an hour ago from someone claiming to be Bookmaker. They told me about a "special" 100% bonus for a $100 deposit. The call came from a Cunard Lines number which I've received calls from before, usually from BETPOP. But this time they claimed they were Bookmaker.
Anyway, I gave them my Visa card number for the deposit. A few minutes later, another man representing himself as "Mannys" supervisor asked for my Verified by Visa name. When I gave it to him, he said the deposit went through and my money would be in my account in 15 minutes. About a half hour later I went to my Bookmaker account. When no money was there, I used Live Chat to get an explanation. They said they had no record of the transaction or no Manny or Fernando that worked there. I then checked all my sports books accounts and no money was deposited anywhere.
I'll put a block on the charge by my bank so I'm not worried about it. But if you get a call from Cunard Lines 305-459-3535 BEWARE!!!
But the only explanation is that someone at some book is stealing information and using it for their benefit. I've already posted a thread on how some book stole my CC info and made some charges offshore at a gift shop in the Carribean and hotel rooms in Panama. The ONLY explanation is that someone on the inside is stealing info!!!!
Just make sure that the person that calls you has your account number for the proper book. By the way, the charge comes up as a Stockholm charge.
