Fraud Prevention
Here are several methods to detect and prevent online gambling fraud. Utilizing encryption is a fundamental step to start with.
The first and most important point to protect against fraud is to choose a casino with a high level of encryption. In this regard, 1xBet Canada uses 128-bit encryption to protect user information.
The second point, already required by 1xBet Canada, is to follow good KYC (Know Your Customer) practices. This involves several steps, including the basics when registering a user:
- You need two documents to create an account and play successfully at 1xBet Canada:
- The first is your proof of identification (ID card).
- The second is your proof of residence.
Any document you provide, take a scan and keep it ready. 1xBet Canada also accepts photographs of documents. If the images are not clear, they will ask you to resend them. Therefore, scans are preferable. Send photos only if specifically requested by 1xBet Canada’s customer service.
Proofs of Identity:
- Passport
- Driver’s License
- PAN Card
Proofs of Residence:
- Passport
- Driver’s License (if it shows your address)
- Bank statement
- Utility bill (Internet connection bill or postpaid mobile phone bills)
During registration, you can continue to monitor data using the following methods:
- Device fingerprinting – find information about the device being used, as some of them will immediately indicate suspicious use.
- Email analysis – emails are often linked to social network accounts, which makes tracking fake accounts easier.
- IP analysis – similar to device fingerprinting, an IP address can reveal a lot about an individual’s internet use, location, and potential for fraudulent activity.
Some of these steps can also be used during login, to ensure that the correct user is using the correct account. Device fingerprinting and IP analysis can also help flag account takeovers (whether credentials have been stolen or acquired through phishing attacks).
Finally, during account top-ups, it is important to monitor credit card information to ensure that they have not been stolen or do not represent a high-risk threat.
Important Notice: We advise people to first verify their account before depositing money into their 1xBet account. Once the account is verified, you can deposit whenever you want and withdraw whenever you wish. But note that even if you have successfully completed the KYC procedure, you will still have limits on your bets, set earlier during the registration process. However, you are free to change them at any time in your 1xBet account.
In terms of legislation, 1xBet Canada’s Anti-Fraud regulation is represented by the main points below:
- The betting company reserves the right to cancel the Cash Out in case of suspicion of fraud or abuse.
- The administration of the betting company reserves the right to block the customer’s account from placing bets, cancel all bets, or address law enforcement agencies if the following cases are discovered: if the Client has committed fraud against the betting company.
