K, this one looks fishy to Me as well. I to had litle luck with finding info on "CasinoPar" or Casino Par so i looked at the Independant web verifying company... this is what I came up with: "ARCOS 4.0 Plus Three, LP, released ARCOS 4.0, an application built on Linux, Apache, MySQL and Perl and designed to be used by fundraising organizations. Standard features and uses of ARCOS are constituent relationship management, e-mail and link tracking, event management, social software and an on-line activism center. New features include improved real-time report generation from databases, an enterprise-class redundancy backup system, and a larger and faster user database. ARCOS' e-mail publishing feature allows users to organize and distribute e-mail lists based on a variety of factors stored in the database. The Web publishing tools offer customizable contributor pages and tell-a-friend pages. In addition, the e-mail and Web publishing tools are integrated to allow users to process up to two million messages an hour. " Thats right, there is a software that goes by that name, not a corporate entity... hmmm curiouser and Curiouser, as Alice said... Maybe it could be something more like this... ArcosWeb... so ran that too which brought me to a Web design and marketing firm that has a real interesting article on mass mailings, how to get your google count up etc... and oddly a portal to their Free online casino and arcade... Yes from there it got better, going deeper into their infrastructure I found they also run a small sports betting gig... Still interested in giving them your credit card info for 1.99 euro?

I also tried to find info on this casino. I pretty much found what you did Jimb. I think this is just a marketing attempt to gain as much money as they can off of the 1.99. I thought this was a European casino and not for US players and don't understand why I would be getting this spam. I guess someone has been selling email accounts and think people are foolish enough to fall for this scam. I am learning more each day about rogue casinos and marketing scams. I would never pay someone to validate an email account when reputable casinos do it free by sending you a link to your email account and all you have to do is click that link and BAM, you are verified. Stay safe, perkypoo

Morning mrmpou (for me at least), The point behind the "research" for this, and the suspicions aroused by the initial searches came from the virtual lack of information available when Perky first recieved the email. It IS possible that CasinoPar is a new venture and is now fully open, thus your find, but at the time of the first posting, the total sleauthing needed to even find the casino, much less who runs it, where it is based out of atc. was somewhat suspicious.
Face it if you are doing a Grand Opening... you do it with Bells , Whistles and Fireworks, not whispers from a dark alley.
I will take a look later today and see if it still triggers my suspicious nature.

Is this right. The link you gave is another site like this one, not a casino. I didn't register cause I was afraid of spam or virus. Do you have link to casino. Don't use any blog site but this one
