How Virtual Card Sharks Undermine Trust in Gaming

Real money gaming platforms are often targeted by fraudsters via a variety of tactics to game the system. Top of mind for card games players is the potential for collusion. In card games, information about the cards in players’ hands is especially valuable. By colluding across multiple accounts, fraudsters could create unfair advantages for themselves by monopolizing information or by making game-winning plays. They also employ GPS spoofers and VPNs to obscure their location and avoid detection. 

At the same time, the BigCash team knew that it was important that the discounts, free games, and jackpot winnings go towards genuine users. By preventing any unethical activities, the BigCash team ensured monopolizing platform incentives is completely prevented, and that its resources were used to drive meaningful organic growth. 

How BigCash Ensures Fairness in Its Games

The SHIELD Device ID, the global standard for device identification, empowered the BigCash team to pinpoint the singular physical devices behind thousands of fake accounts. This meant that they could then confidently stamp out fake accounts without affecting genuine users. 

Big Cash’s existing features and processes, including RNG certification, collusion detection, and code hardening, were strengthened by SHIELD’s Risk Intelligence. SHIELD’s solution could detect the installation and activation of malicious tools and techniques on the platform, such as GPS spoofers, tampered apps, and app cloners. It also identified large numbers of accounts sharing the same IP address or subnet. 

SHIELD’s technology empowered the BigCash team to pinpoint in real time what would have otherwise been one of the hardest things to detect - the moment that good users turn bad.

Last but not least, SHIELD’s technology helped with BigCash’s onboarding process, verifying genuine user profiles and facilitating seamless withdrawals.

Global Aspirations Require Global Defenses

With BigCash expanding globally and bringing the platform to new markets around the world, the platform needed to be able to account for the diverse fraud risks present throughout the world. 

SHIELD’s Device Intelligence empowered the BigCash team to defend against the unique fraud threats present in every region, as well as staying ahead of all new and emerging global fraud risks. 

“SHIELD’s Device Intelligence is a critical factor for our global ambitions, helping us ensure absolutely fair, trusted, and transparent gameplay experiences for players worldwide,” said Ankur Singh, Founder & CEO of Witzeal.
