On August 28, 2025, I was contacted through Instagram by an account under the name “A* A*****”**, claiming to represent Bwin. Through this account, I was persuaded to deposit ₺500 into what I was told was my betting account. However, after the payment, no funds appeared, and instead I was threatened. They claimed that unless I transferred an additional ₺5,250, my personal information would be reported to the authorities and I would face debt collection proceedings. Soon after, they also demanded another ₺14,000.

I refused to pay further, but the individuals kept threatening me and even sent me a fake bank receipt to pressure me into sending more money. At no point was there any legitimate confirmation or official communication from Bwin. The entire process was a scam.

This experience has left me with a loss of around ₺5,750, along with serious stress and harassment. I demand that this fraudulent activity be thoroughly investigated, that Instagram accounts impersonating Bwin be taken down, and that legal measures be pursued against those responsible. Most importantly, I want my money refunded and preventative steps taken so that others do not fall victim to the same scheme.
