Online casinos are not always honest. Some developers have obtained licences but still cheat players. It cannot be ruled out that some of the developers are making money in an illegal way.

Inexperienced players are often in a hurry to jump to conclusions. The experienced gambling community is sceptical of claims of possible slot machine cheating. If a slot machines eats up your deposits one by one, it's more likely that you are just unlucky.

Sheriff Gaming's executives were arrested in 2013 and sentenced in December 2018. They were found guilty of cheating with progressive jackpot draws and paying out the jackpots to their friends and family. The company owes 13 million euros and its assets were confiscated. The three main defendants received a total of five years and three months in prison and fines of €100,000 each. A former programmer said that one day there was a program failure and an ordinary player hit a big jack pot, but the director never received the full amount.

Sheriff Gaming cheated players. The developer had an Alderney licence, which is considered trustworthy. They tried to sell the property to Blue Gem Gaming, but the Dutch government did not allow it. It was confiscated and sold to Novomatic.

GameART, licensed in Curacao, tweaked the demo mode of at least one game and players made huge winnings. Playing for real stakes is a different matter.

GameArt confessed to the deception of their online slot machines. No action was taken against them.

The more solid the licence of the developer, the more confidence in the fact that he provides fair slot machines. Curacao is the most unreliable jurisdiction, Malta has gained a pretty good reputation, UK and Alderney are among the least reliable.

There are reports of fake slot machines on casino sites. The only way to confirm if a slot machine is authentic is to check the server where it was downloaded from. If the addresses do not match, it means the slot is fake.

Slots give random results and sometimes those results can seem unbelievable. The main thing is not to jump to conclusions and check the licence of the developer and the server from which the games are loaded. If you want to find fair casinos, check BestAuCasinosOnline.
