Access Help for VIP, GameDay, WSSB, Bet19, BetonGames, etc.

[JoeWager]

In an effort to combat the DDoS attacks and extortion demands, VIP-managed books have blocked out certain IP addresses, thus minimizing the severity of the attacks. During this process, however, some “innocent” IPs are being blocked inadvertently. Fortunately, there is a solution:

1. Go to http://www.vipschedules.com/myip.asp and write down the number you see on that page. This is the IP address of your computer.

2. Then email the sportsbook with your account ID and your IP address (from step one). See below for the contact information for all VIP-managed books.

3. VIP Management will pass this information upstream to their provider who will make the necessary adjustments to unblock your IP address. This will typically require a maximum of 24 hours.

Joe,
I just read your reply on the CR books - fair enough, but how on earth can you recommend FairDeal or FiveCardCharlie????

I lasted 4 days, 5 wagers there before there manager said "we don't want your kind of action". WTF kind of shop is that? Sorry I didn't play chalk that is inflated 20 cents over the consensus

I don't think that I recommended FairDeal or FiveCardCharlie anywhere ... simply providing contact info for all VIP-managed shops with regards to the DDoS attack fiasco.

What's a sharp guy like you doing slumming in the retail shops anyway?

 

[lander]

Value Joe, Value.

I wouldn't be sharp if I passed up a bargin, now, would I

btw - sorry for the mis-accusation. I see that you had them (properly IMO) "under caution"

 

[JoeWager]

No worries brother ...

2. Then email the sportsbook with your account ID and your IP address (from step one). See below for the contact information for all VIP-managed books.

What if we have DHCP (dynamic IP)? This would be a pain in the ass

 

[JoeWager]

Good question ... I'll see what I can find out.

 

[JoeWager]

It appears that a range of IP addresses that correlate to yours would be unblocked.

Maybe one of the technical gurus out there can shed more light?

 

[lander]

good stuff Joe.

Hopefully, I won't have the problem - my pc is usually on, so it can almost always renew the same IP lease.

FROM VIP

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>As you know, last weekend our website was attacked with a Denial of Service attack - we believe by a group of extortionists who have also attacked several other web sites recently. Due to this unfortunate event, our website was not accessible for much of Friday and Saturday. While our call center is always fully staffed to accept your bets, we are aware that you may have experienced some inconvenience. For that, we are truly sorry, and would like to thank you for your patience during this time.

1/2 JUICE ON ALL FOOTBALL - To show our appreciation for your loyalty, we are excited to announce that we will be offering 1/2 Juice football wagering all weekend long! That's right, all NFL and NCAA - sides and totals included - will be offered at -105!

We would like you to know that we will never pay any extortion demands - I firmly believe that this sort of crime must never be rewarded. As a result of that, we may experience more attacks this weekend. Our technical staff along with our ISP will be monitoring our systems around the clock, and will assure that our systems are available to you as much as possible in the event of a further attack. We are also working closely with the UK High Tech Crimes Unit, who already have a significant file on this incident, and are optimistic that the criminals will be unearthed sooner rather than later.
Thanks from everyone here,

Alistair Assheton
