3 Easy Ways to Avoid NFL Betting Scams Online

NFL Betting online is a blast, but there are a few bad elements in the online gaming world. 

Here's a brief summary of three tips to avoid NFL betting scams from Wise Bettor's football betting blog @ SportsBettingFootball.com.

1. Look at deposit methods.

Basically, any online sportsbook worth a darn will take deposits many ways. Stay away from checks, bank wires and Western Union.

Your best bet is to use a credit card or a well-known 3rd party payment processor.

2. Google the sportsbook.

This one is great. Here's the basic idea.

If the online sportsbook is reputable and larger, there will be plenty of information about them on forums, blogs, etc. All you need to do is search and discover.

It's such a simple tip and by doing this alone you can stay away from bad online sportsbooks.

3. Can they be contacted?

Why do business with an online sportsbook you can't talk to? See if they have a phone number. If so, call it and see how long it takes to speak to someone (just tell them you're testing them out).

Also, fire off an email and see how many hours/days it takes for a response.
