3 Ways to Protect Yourself While Playing Online Lotto
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

It’s certainly more convenient to play lotto online, but this comes with a few drawbacks, mainly security and privacy concerns.

For first-time players and those who want to experience e-lotto platforms, here are a few tips you should always keep in mind when placing a lottery bet on the internet.

1. Check Results Only From Reputable Sources

Online scammers are nothing new. They aim to take your money using unscrupulous methods such as posing as the lotto agency, an agent or a company who wants to pay you ‘big money’ in exchange for your bank details, a deposit, etc.

After betting, you should only check results in reliable lotto site. For instance, you can view results of data SGP so you’ll know whether you won or not.

2. Use Only Your Smartphone or Computer

As a general rule, you should only play the lottery or any other gambling in your mobile phone and computer. This is because sensitive information, such as your name, email address, password and credit card can be acquired if you play on a public computer or an internet cafe.
Moreover, avoid using public Wi-Fi and turn on your data and network instead. Log out your account after placing a bet and people will have a harder time getting your personal details.

3. Watch Out for Phishing

The term ‘phishing’ refers to when an entity is claiming to be a legitimate corporation or business, saying you’ll have to verify yourself by inputting personal details such as log ins and bank account details.
This type of scam is mostly done via SMS or email, so make sure you protect yourself against these schemes by being careful. Don’t just open any attachment- verify and make sure it’s from the original lotto company.
They usually won’t ask for sensitive information and would never ask for a deposit or your credit card or bank details.
