I’ve been seeing an increasing amount of spam recently for something called Bingo Bonus Blaster, a so-called no-risk system for making it big playing online bingo. Intrigued by the premise I set off to find out more. It seems the people behind this system are going on a big hype offensive – the site for the system is a massive sales letter type affair promising riches and success. And if this hackneyed approach to online selling hasn’t caught you, the people behind the product have been busy dropping comments and forum posts on the system in a vein attempt to give it some fake word-of-mouth credibility.
Why do I say fake, well, spammers on the forum have mentioned how well they’ve done with the system. However, having signed up with an email that’s from the domain being plugged, they ain’t fooling anyone. The system comes in the form of a downloadable eBook, punted on a site that makes claims to give you a “no-risk” way of making lots of money playing bingo. The eBook is £19.55, sold through the notoriously scammy ‘get-rich-quick’ enabler Clickbank. My suspicions were already off the radar with dated and spammy sales pitch, and actually reading the content of the eBook, that radar became an air-raid siren.
I can see a lot of bingo players being taken in by the hype, which is why I found it necessary to look into myself. I have a real problem with this eBook as it’s inaccurate and misleading. The system can be boiled down to this simple premise, play in quiet rooms, max out your tickets, roll your winnings over to other sites with bigger bonuses and repeat the process.
A lot of what’s in there is little more than common sense, but the problem arises because the book gives the impression that you cannot lose following the strategies in it. I would disagree, and I disagree from my own experience of trying out lots of new sites. Now, I’ve been doing what the system suggests for years, and I can say categorically that the inflated claims in the book are as likely to lose you your money as they are to make it for you. In fact just yesterday I was doing the same thing as I always do (as suggested by the eBook,) and didn’t win anything.
Other times I’ve done it and won, sometimes 3 or 4 times in a session, but I’m under no illusions that this is a “no-risk” strategy, it’s far from it. Bingo is a game of chance, and although you can improve your chances, it still remains a game of chance. There are a number of inaccurate statements through out the scant eBook. Another regular bingo player I know who has seen the book herself agreed with me. It’s poorly written and utter tripe (her words), and little more than the most expensive guide you could spend your money on to learn how to play bingo and take advantage of sign up bonuses.
If you want further proof of how little faith they have about the system, then here’s a real gem. Throughout the eBook they give you links to the sites they’re suggesting that you play at. These are via affiliate links, which means they will get a cut of the money you spend at those sites if you signed up via those links. Now, if this system is so good, you will be taking all your winnings out of the sites. If you do that, they don’t ever make any money through the affiliate scheme. on the other hand, if you play at the sites and don’t win anything, they get their cut of what you spend. Think about that.
If you’re an online bingo player, and your tempted by the hype, here’s my advice, ignore it. You’ll feel short changed, the book weighs in at less than 30 pages and that’s with lots of large graphics. Hardly worth what they’re asking for it, especially given the lack of anything decent inside. If you see other forum or social network members talking about it, remember one thing – they might be the same ones we had here who work for the people behind the book.
Save your twenty quid and do something more fun with it, like playing bingo online maybe? You’d have as much real chance of winning as you would having read the book.
