Background Information
Misleading Advertising – Betting Scalper has failed to substantiate profit claims about its betting system.
The ASA published an adjudication against Betting Scalper, a company selling information about its arbitrage betting system, on 22 June 2011. The advertiser’s website claimed "Here's How to Turn the ONLY Unfair Advantage Left in Betting Into Profits Of £109,148.69 Or More Every Month" and featured profit claims and testimonials.
Betting Scalper did not produce any evidence to show that the profit claims or testimonials were genuine. In the absence of substantiation that showed that they were genuine, the ASA concluded that the claims and testimonials were misleading and in breach of the Code.
Although the ASA has adjudicated against Betting Scalper and has made several subsequent requests for an assurance of future compliance, Betting Scalper continues to feature problematic claims on its website; http://www.bettingscalper.co.uk/. Because of Betting Scalper’s continued non-compliance we took the decision to place their details on this section of the ASA website on 21 December 2011. These details shall remain in place until such time as Betting Scalper has appropriately amended its website to ensure compliance with the ASA adjudication and the CAP Code.
