Gubbing Spree
-
Apologies for another “woe is me… I’ve been gubbed by X”, but I thought I share with you that I’ve been gubbed by Betfair, William Hill and now Coral in really quick succession.
The interesting thing is that I’ve hardly touched Coral at all! Which leads me to believe that bookies view match betting as such a big problem that they’re beginning to share details of customers who have been restricted. I’m sure there’s data protection laws that prohibit this kind of thing, but I can’t help but wonder if they’re perhaps getting around these laws by sharing data that could be considered non-sensitive? Maybe lists of anonymous postcodes or even user names?
Maybe I’m paranoid, but it seems too much of a coincidence to me (coupled with reading here about some people being immediately gubbed shortly after sign-up).
I’ll continue wearing my tinfoil hat… just in case.
