If you've seen one, you've seen them all. To experienced players, shoddy sites stand out like a sore thumb. You take one look and think: ''I'm outta here!' Which is for the best, as one can never be too cautious when it comes to internet casinos. WinnerMillion is one of those sites that feels wrong from the get go. The term ''rogue'' seems almost too mild a word to describe the things we found in there. From fake games and dubious license, to predatory terms and unresponsive interface, there's not a single redeeming quality to save them from the Warning list.
No License Proof
Launching in 2014, WinnerMillion reveals little, if any, background information. We don't know who owns it or where it is registered. Although they claim a Curacao e-gaming license, they do not offer any legitimate proof to support it. Every licensed casino should have a link leading to the official licensing certificate, but not this site.They only show a Master License number, 8048/JAZ, which in itself means nothing, and could be faked easily. Even the iTech Labs logo leads nowhere: when you try to click on it, nothing happens.
Pirated Slots
Take a look at the games, and you will quickly pick up something is very wrong. The first slot to come up is South Park, a title NetEnt withdrew from the market earlier in the year, but here it is somehow still available. This goes to show they have no contact with the provider, or else they'd surely be notified about discontinued products, had they obtained them in a lawful way and though a proper licensing procedure.
Further inspection of the software revealed a familiar fake domain - casinomodulle.com. We came across the same crooked source in our earlier investigations of rogue casinos, and we can say beyond a doubt that WinnerMillion is hosting pirated Net Entertainment slots.
This screenshot of the falsified Jack Hammer slot clearly shows the pirated domain, with two ''l'' instead of one a tell tale sign it is not the original source:
Predatory T&C
To make matters worse, the operator's terms and conditions are among the most nonsensical we have ever seen in all our years in this business. It seems the site doesn't even try to hide their predatory nature. In addition to being written by someone with a very poor grasp of the English language, the terms and conditions do not offer any withdrawal information or bonus rules, except to state outrageous restrictions on winnings from straight deposits. There are discrepancies and contradictions all throughout, leaving players in doubt over many aspects. We suggest you read them yourselves: seasoned players will have a good laugh; others, a valuable learning experience.
Off to the Warning List
Common in all sectors of the gaming industry, software piracy is a serious crime that seems all too easy to perpetrate. It affects both providers and players, at the same time undermining the economic stability of the market. While its consequences are never mild whichever branch it happens in, the problem is much worse this side of the fence. When gamblers are duped into wagering on fake products, it is always a losing game. At WinnerMillion, loss and disappointment seem inevitable. This is not a casino to take your chances with, and we urge you to avoid it at all costs.

Thank you LCB, good job. some casinos profit to get fake copies of NetEnt slots games, even if the copies are identical, they do not depend on the supplier and therefore have no guarantee in terms of volatility and redistribution rate. several players have fallen into the trap.

I think the player needs to know the tricks to recognize a real NetEnt slot.

Players should be able to know about LCB and a few of other trusted gambling communities to check about credibility.

I hope they are and something is done to stop more and more casinos popping up doing thus to players who are just looking for some fun and the possibility of winning a bit of money in the process. Its unfair on the casinos out there that are trustworthy it gives them all a bad name

THe answer is no, we didn't knew that this is fake games, otherwise we would not remove it by now . The best proof is that when we learned that this is pirated games, we have decide to turn it off immediately. Our reputation are much more importante than sample games!!

@fabrice, well good to see u removed the games. However I wonder why havent you done due diligence before and verified if the games are legit or not from the start?

@fabrice, well good to see u removed the games. However I wonder why havent you done due diligence before and verified if the games are legit or not from the start? It is not hard to determine if the games are fake or not ( if u know where to look ), so either you knew that you have fake games from day one ( that would be my guess ) or whom ever signed this deal for you is an incompetent person and should get fired asap. I wonder how you gonna refund all the affected players, coz all the bets placed on these fake games should be voided and all players reimbursed completely.

Even beyond pirated NetEnt games, this casino is an absolute disaster. As for the fake games, NetEnt's inert nature may be their downfall, they should man up asap and start doing something about all this fake games. That btw applies for Novomatic/Greentube as well. So far only the great guys from Aristocrat took action...

So far only the great guys from Aristocrat took action but when they did, number of rogues lost the fake source for their games and was forced to shut down. NetEnt could easily follow the example and do the same with these crooks.

They really do deserve to be blacklisted. Pirated games, predatory terms, no license all in one casino! It is really unbelievable. I hope the players will read this article, spread a word about Winner Milllion and stay away from it.

Couldn't be more correct by saying "one can never be too cautious when it comes to internet casinos." I've learned the hard way to always read Terms and Conditions at any casino prior to making a deposit. Good Article. Great Reminder.
