There are so many online sportsbooks out there that it's hard for recreational bettors to avoid getting ripped off. Top Sports Handicapper Adam Meyer offers some simple ways to avoid ripoff's when selecting an online sports betting operator. Here are some simple things to look out for:

Licensing - not enough can be said about this. There are some very questionable places in the world that grant "gambling licenses". The only places that offer valid licenses are first world countries. Steer clear from anything else.

Margin - every sportsbook takes some sort of margin on each bet, although it varies greatly. If either you cannot find information about the margin, or it seems excessively high, move on.

Bonuses and Promotions - If a sportsbook offers a huge sign up bonus, it is often reason for suspicion. Why would anyone increase your odds by giving you tons of free cash. Bonuses have their place, but it's a sweetener and no more.

Payout procedures - Are these clearly published on the website? Even if it is, send them en email to confirm their process and turnaround time.

Blacklisted? - You'd ...
... be amazed what pops up if you search for "Sportsbook name" + blacklisted in Google.

Customer Service - Phone the toll free number listed on the site before making a deposit. Ask them a simple question like what is their minimum deposit. If you don't get a concise answer, in proper English, it's time to leave.

Track record - How long have they been in business, or better yet, can you even establish this from their website.

There are many other things to look out for like ownership and awards won. At the end of the day, you should trust your gut instincts and do enough research to make you comfortable. Sports betting should be a fun activity and free of the stresses of wondering if your money is safe.
