Beware pay per head agents! Gambling911.com has been informed that a fake affiliate with no relationship to pay per head site WagerHome.com is emailing agents pretending to represent this company.
“Here is list of sites that they use that are not with us- there main site perhead.co, which they are obviously trying to act like they are part of perhead.com also,” the Wagerhome.com rep advised G911 Monday.
Below is an email the scammers have been sending out-and on top of it they are using an email newsletter@therx.com.
“We contacted them and they are saying it is someone spamming and its not them- we have them (therx.com) looking into this.”
Dear Agents,
This is the pay per head service for this NFL season. They offer loads of features at a fraction of the price.
Their service and staff speak for them selves, Try one week free!
