Lots of posts about dubious trading platforms that are followed by someone offering to help you if you've lost money in a scam. Do we have a "bot" or something worse? I thought I was a "one note" poster, but Donald has beaten me.....note the identical posts on multiple threads“So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”0

Someone with 3000+ posts like you should know better and be less arrogant.
Someone with over three thousand posts, many of them helpful, has more right to be arrogant than most.
If what Another Joe has written is arrogance, then I aspire to achieve similar levels of arrogance.
Warmest regards,

That page also says if they are based in the UK they have should be licensed by the Gambling Commission. The company lists 2 addresses one of which is in Armenia (not promising) and the other is Smart Choice Zone LP registered address 272 Bath St. ,Glasgow, G2 4JR , Scotland
Are they licensed? No

Though I have to say it depends on where their "gambling equipment" is based so they may potentially have a get-out.0 -
This is an old thread, apparently revived by a spam post, now gone, and we've now got two new posts responding to the year-old OP.Eco Miser
