What is a Tipster Scam? This is when a sports tipster makes false claims, has false results or simply lies and cheat there way into getting your cash by selling you a false or fake product.
I have compiled a list of tipsters that I have had reports from readers about, some of whom are downright criminal, and others are just a little bit more risky than others. That being said, anything on this list is, in my opinion, worth avoiding.
Worst Of The Worst SCAM Tipsters
The TR Tipster Blacklist – These are scam tipsters or tipsters who are just plain awful and should not be charging for their services.
Any tipster listed here you should genuinely avoid unless you want to make some big losses.
If you want to report a scam tipster, you can do so by emailing us with all the details for us to investigate further. Check out our verified tipsters if you want real services that give you the best chance of profit and give good customer service.
This list may be a little out of date, but these are the worst offenders so far.
1) The Racing Tipsters
Run by Phil Rushton, this service has been plain awful when emailing him. Response times are days or even weeks.
There is a lot of blurb about this service, but it is very false info. I don’t want to call it a scam, but there is a lot of fibbing going on with this one, and I would be VERY wary of joining.
2) Betting Barry – tipster scam due to fake results
We trialled this service, and I found it unacceptable. It is not a scam; it is a service with false profit/loss and poor results. This could change, so let me know if you have had a better experience.
3) Football Betting Master / Football Betting Tipsters
So it turns out that both of these services are fraudulent and do not deliver on their promises. They are also both run by the same person and have a lot of misleading things on the sales page and website.
Football betting master and the other services were at one point approved but were reported by a user, and were investigated, removed, and duly blacklisted.
4) Win Chaser
As you will read in our Win Chaser review, this service is owned and run by a guy called Eddie who owns and runs several awful services.
This service has fraudulent images and testimonials on its sales page and is possibly only set up to get your email address.
5) Get Your Tips Out
Falsifying results is the number one way to get listed on the blacklist. We have had numerous bad reports on this one, so we decided to re-review it (as it’s a free tipster, it is unusual it would be blacklisted). Yet another service to avoid.
6) Win Lords/Auto Win Machine
Again, false testimonials and pictures on the sales page. The contact page email for this service refers you to the auto-win machines email address…This service should also be added here at some point.
7) The Syndicate
Numerous user reviews and comments/emails about this scam service, which is falsifying results amongst other things, so be very careful with this one.
8) @racinggtipster_ and @bigbentipping
Emails came in about this tipster requesting money after being hospitalised, etc, from his members. I had an in-depth email about @racinggtipster_ and @bigbentipping
User Warnings: On the following tipsters
Users have gotten in touch via email or social media to flag the following tipsters for us. Once a tipster has been flagged three times or more, they go on the blacklist above, and we do not recommend joining any tipster on this page.
Amazing John On Facebook – reports that he charged £300 for something then blocked the user after money was sent via Western Union
@tommoracing (advertises in the racing post?)
@theinformer18 (advertises in the racing post?)
@VipInplayBetsss (asks to borrow money but does not pay it back). This tipster was reported to us on Twitter, and when we attempted to investigate, they blocked us from viewing their page or messaging them. They have something to hide, and we recommend you avoid this tipster service.
@Racing_TWP asked for money via DM on Twitter and has a terrible personality disorder. Abusive is also one to be wary of for sure.
Durkan and Rogers. Approach via phone, with the pro-gambler repartee, and offer guaranteed winners. When they fail to make excuses and want big money for their advice, AVOID.
@optimum_racing on X – numerous calls about him being a fake service overcharging and delivering awful results, uses manipulated results to get new users in.
Others To Avoid – Lower risk than the above on the tipster blacklist, but still avoid
