Sportingbet tarnished by MySportsbook

MySportsbook.com has operated as a licensee of Sportingbet for the past couple of years.  Yesterday it was announced that the sportsbook was fully acquired by Sportingbet.

MySportsbook.com has always been one of the sleaziest of the Sportingbet licensees, despised by most Gambling911.com sponsors who have had their own domain names cybersquatted by MySportsbook.

Despite numerous attempts by MyBookie.com management to have MySportsbook stop cybersquatting their name, the issue has fallen on deaf ears.

MySportsbook.com has registered numerous domain names in the form of www (without the dot).  An example of this would be wwwmybookie.com

Now it has come to light that 5Dimes, Oasis Casino, Winward Casino and others have fallen victim to MySportsbook's scuzzy tactics.

We sincerely hope that with Sportingbet taking full control, all of this cybersquatting will come to an end. 

When we attempted to find out who was behind this, the buck was past on to "affiliates of MySportsbook.com".  Shouldn't the owners in MySportsbook hold these individuals accountable for their bad behavior?

Another slimy cybersquatter is EZSportsbetting.com.

People of this ilk have no concept of originality or creativity and must stoop to another level. 

At least three Gambling911.com have already complained to us about the MySportsbook.com fiasco.  Companies need to work with one another and not against one another. 

Let's hope that Sportingbet puts a stop to this travesty.
