#SCAMALERT update 12-30-2022
Over Christmas, I found this casino that started out to be pretty cool. They try to act legit, and even paid a couple of failed transactions manually. Long story short, in the end they owed me 8,5 million satoshi balance on my account, PLUS 8x 30k satoshi LN invoices with error code (no route) Then they blocked me from access to the site, deleted my user account, blocked me on Discord.

Amount Scammed: 0.085 BTC remaining account balance + 0.00240000 BTC failed transactions Error(no path found)
Payment Method: BTC Lightning Network
Proof of Payment: See photo gallery
PM/Chat Logs: See photo gallery
Additional Notes: They have been trashing me on this forum coming up with excuse after excuse. So far in my opinion there has been no evidence posted by them supporting their claim of fraud, manipulation, tampering with html code, slander etc. Will we ever see the little guy not be taken advantage of?
Macaw Casino starts out to be a somewhat legitimate website, even though they could use some help on their design skills. They use the BTC Lightning network for transactions, which is a great tool for small transactions.
I decided YOLO right? Well my decision paid off in the end. Here is the whole story....
I deposited 10,000 Satoshi and got lucky (so it seemed) and was able to withdraw roughly 50,000 (30000 sat transaction max) of my 75,000 balance. Then the transactions started to fail. I used their support link to Discord (already sounding shady) and much to my surprise, the person i talked to had me create an invoice, send it and the invoice was fulfilled at once. Left me pleasantly surprised.
The next day, I figured to give it another go. I sent 25000 this time, the outcome was unbelievable! Account balance of 700,000 and was able to withdraw roughly 250,000 before the transactions failed (I guess I caught them sleeping) The next day, I contacted support once again. I NEVER got a response, my account had been deleted, I was removed and blocked from the Discord server, and my IP address had been blocked from accessing the website. (good thing I took some screen shots before) My account balance was upwards of 8,000,000 Satoshi or 0.08000000 about $1335.00 So I guess you can say that I broke the casino.
So if you decide to visit them, please tell them that JuanS2099 sends his love, and thank you for the 250,000 satoshi that was very happily distributed as "Merry Christmas" chat rain in one of my favorite platforms.
Thank you again Macaw Casino! I know that this review will probably not get you shut down or otherwise punished, but at least there was a little holiday cheer to be shared.
