Casinos are giving a heads-up about a new scam that’s targeting Arkansans and trying to take their money.
“They’re using our identity, our good name, our goodwill, to try to trick you into turning over your information—your credit card number,” said Carlton Saffa, chief financial officer at Saracen Casino Resort in Pine Bluff…
“In the first quarter of this year, we began to see ads with our name and likeness on them,” he said. “Interestingly, we’ve used trademark protections to have them taken down.”
According to Saffa, Saracen has removed more than 300 separate ad sites falsely using their brand to promote fake promotions—many of them hosted on Facebook.
