We therefore recommend to only gamble on sites which have been certified or licensed by your own government. For a list of certified sites, you can check our article "Safe Online Gambling & Betting".

In our Analysis we always check the Tranco ranking. In this case it was low. A low Tranco ranking means that the website has relatively few visitors. For a new website this is logical.

Adult-oriented websites may include third-party trackers that can access your IP address, location, and even system hardware information. Adult websites are also vulnerable to data breaches and leaks, in addition to trackers. Some of these sites also use viruses and other malware to disseminate unauthorized content, which can lead to major legal issues. We advise using VPNs and exercising extreme caution when browsing pornographic websites.

We discovered that the domain of this website has been registered several years ago. Websites of scammers are usually very new. Still, you have to be careful. Scammers nowadays also buy old and existing websites to start their malpractice. Checking a website for other scam signals remains essential. 

This website appears to sell weapons such as firearms, rifles, hunting knives, and so on. This isn't always a negative thing as long as it's done in a lawful context (depending on the state or country where it is domiciled) and follows the proper procedures.

Gift cards are an excellent substitute for cash or credit cards when shopping, and they also make wonderful presents. But gift cards are also used in charge-back and other frauds by con artists. Gift cards are also often purchased by scammers using stolen credit cards, who then sell them to unwary customers. As a result, it's crucial to only buy gift cards from reputable brand stores and avoid doing so from independent merchants.

Due to the difficulty of tracing gift cards, scammers have long used them to steal money from unsuspecting victims. We do not recommend purchasing gift cards from unofficial third-party websites and advise you preferably get them from credible shop merchants (such as amazon.com). By doing this, authenticity is ensured and the possibility of buying gift cards that have previously been tampered with is diminished.
