Back Don't be Fooled by Casino Venetian's Phoney Software

UPDATE 10/23/2018: After someone who appears to be Representative for this casino, had posted at our forum claiming no more piracy, LCB team has inspected the games again and can confrim they no longer feature fake games. /END of UPDATE

Please be informed that Casino Venetian has been placed on the LCB Warning list due to PIRATED software and unlicensed operations. After careful inspection of the site, we were able to confirm beyond a reasonable doubt, that certain video slots are falsified versions of the original games, and that the license is not genuine. In light of these findings, and having in mind other serious disadvantages such as strict cash-out terms and arbitrary withdrawal policy, players would do best to refrain from depositing here.

As far as pirated games go, this operator is slightly different than what we are used to see. While the Novomatic slots are obviously fake, the usual indicative signs are missing. You can tell something is wrong just by observing the launcher and menu, which look nothing like the official Novomatic releases. However, other details which might give them away are concealed: the source code is masked to look like ''about:blank'', but clicking on the link reveals the games are hosted and launching from the casino's domain itself, when in reality they shouldn't be.

Note the strange launcher with a green and black color scheme in the Book of Ra Deluxe slot:

The menu and interface of the Book of Ra Deluxe slot appear slightly different from the original game. The Help button is not reliably responsive:

Another concerning fact is the lack of license logo from the website. Every properly regulated casino has the official seal of their gaming regulator somewhere on the homepage, which always links to the licensing certificate to show that the permit is verified and genuine. There is no such thing here - they only state to be regulated by the Curacao Commission, but do not provide any proof.

Sprocess Limited operates the platform through their wholly owned subsidiary Lsmedia Adv N.V. Venetian is the only gaming site these companies seem to have in their possession. There is very little information available about either of them, aside from the launching year of 2016.

At this point, we don't know whether or not Venetian is aware the games are knock-off versions, but we're willing to bet they do, since the tell tale signs are so well hidden and someone has certainly went through the trouble of masking them! We will continue working on this case to try and uncover more details, but until such time, players should keep their distance from the site, and find a reliable venue instead.
