Report for Spinxgames.com

Report Date

Caution
Overall Summary
Suspicious
  Why we think so? 

⚠️ Quick verdict: suspicious. Spinx Games operates high-traffic social casino properties (≈300–370K monthly visits) and has legitimate infrastructure and acquisition history, but multiple class-action settlements, regulatory rulings about misleading ads, and persistent consumer complaints raise serious trust concerns. Tech signals (HTTPS, AWS/GoDaddy hosting, Google Analytics) and clean malware/crypto-blacklist checks reduce the risk of technical fraud, yet legal and reputation signals mean you should avoid spending real money without checking settlement/refund options first.

Risk Insights

⚖️

Legal settlements are the key risk

  • SpinX has paid multi-state settlements addressing in-app purchase/gambling claims.
  • Settlements typically include refunds and changes to advertising or spending controls.
  • If you spent money, check settlement claim pages before pursuing other routes.
✅

Technical hygiene is good

  • HTTPS and valid SSL certificate in place (issued by Amazon).
  • Hosting and analytics use mainstream vendors (GoDaddy, AWS, Google Analytics).
  • No Google Safe Browsing or crypto blacklist hits were found.

Contradictory Signals

The company shows signs of an established operator (Netmarble acquisition, large user base) yet legal and consumer issues suggest the business model produces repeated harm to customers.

Signal A: High traffic & corporate acquisition (legitimacy)

Signal B: Multiple class-action settlements and regulatory rulings (consumer-harm)

Category Scores

Red Flags & Warnings

  • Settlements and class actions tied to claims that in-app purchases functioned like unlawful gambling, indicating systemic consumer-harm risk.
  • Regulatory finding (ASA) that advertising implied players could win cash, which is misleading for a virtual-only reward model.
  • Multiple unresolved consumer complaints and negative BBB history alleging lost purchases and poor support.

🔎 Detailed Checks & Analysis

Identity — contactability & corporate signals

Score: 60/100
Passed

"Emails (ethics@spinxgames.com, jackpotworld-support@spinxgames.com) and a LinkedIn company page make the operator discoverable; USPTO search returned no conflicting trademarks."

Reason: Site publishes corporate contacts and LinkedIn/company traces; acquisition history is verifiable.

Reputation — complaints, reviews and regulatory hits

Score: 30/100
Failed

"Washington and Kentucky settlements, ASA ruling on misleading advertising, and BBB complaints create a consistent pattern of reputation risk that directly affects consumers."

Reason: Multiple consumer complaints, BBB problems, and class-action settlements point to recurring consumer-harm issues.

Technical — hosting, SSL, tracking, and blacklist status

Score: 70/100
Passed

"DNS/WHOIS shows GoDaddy nameservers and A records on AWS IPs; SSL issued by Amazon and valid through mid-2026; Google Safe Browsing and crypto-scam checks show no active threats."

Reason: Standard, reputable hosting and valid SSL; no malware or phishing flags from Google Safe Browsing.

Content — accuracy of claims and product transparency

Score: 50/100
Failed

"The privacy/ethics pages state virtual-only coins, yet ASA found ads that suggested cash payouts; that's a material mismatch for consumers deciding to pay."

Reason: Site discloses coins are virtual, but advertising has been found to imply cash wins which misleads users.

Legal — lawsuits, settlements, registrar & WHOIS

Score: 25/100
Failed

"Class actions (Washington $3.5M, Kentucky settlements) and other dockets indicate repeated legal exposure; registrar is GoDaddy, domain WHOIS lacks a public registrant."

Reason: Active and settled litigation around gambling-like mechanics and in-app purchases reduces legal safety for consumers.

Business validity — traffic, acquisition, monetization

Score: 65/100
Passed

"SimilarWeb reports hundreds of thousands of monthly visits and clear monetization via in-app purchases; Netmarble acquisition documentation supports operational legitimacy."

Reason: High traffic and a known acquirer (Netmarble) indicate this is an established business rather than a fly-by-night scam.

Your Next Steps

  • 1

    Do not make in-app purchases until you confirm refund/settlement eligibility from official notices or your payment provider.

  • 2

    If you spent money and had unresolved issues, check class-action settlement pages (e.g., Washington/Kentucky settlements) and file a claim if eligible.

  • 3

    Save receipts and take screenshots of in-game transactions, then contact the listed support emails (e.g., ethics@spinxgames.com and jackpotworld-support@spinxgames.com).

  • 4

    Search the ASA ruling and recent court/settlement announcements before trusting ads that imply cash payouts.

  • 5

    Report unresolved fraud or misleading advertising to your local consumer protection agency and to app-store dispute channels (Apple/Google).
