This weekend was definitely the most panicked day for gambling websites worldwide.
Take Bole.com as an example; its owner, Hamburger, is practically going crazy right now.
After repeated confirmation, their data was found to be without any problems.
That means they generated $10 million in revenue in one week.
But this money, like a bubble, appears brilliantly when it appears, and disappears just as quickly.
Without a word, Bole.com lost $10 million in cash, and they were completely clueless about what to do.
But they are now facing another terrible reality.
That week, the winning guests didn't receive a single penny, which caused a serious crisis of trust among them.
After the controversy escalated, the internet is now filled with accusations of them scamming people out of money, along with screenshots of so-called payment receipts.
Hamburg sat slumped in his chair, a fierce glint in his eyes.
He knew that no matter the outcome, Bole.com was finished.
Once there is no positive feedback, his website is completely ruined.
Furthermore, the website is currently offline due to data issues and will only be able to resume operation after the problems are resolved.
He didn't know how long it would take to solve this problem.
But he knew that even if he solved the problem, he would have to start all over again.
The losses were unbearable for him.
After a day and a night of research, the technical staff at Bole.com came to the conclusion that they had been attacked by cyber hackers, but there was nothing they could do.
Because they finally found an implanted Trojan program.
What makes them feel powerless is that the program is very cunning, with too many clones, making it impossible to delete.
Their only option is to replace all their computers; otherwise, they will be controlled by the other party once they log onto the network.
Hamburg felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this.
Replacing all the computers is a minor issue; the real problem is that they might need to develop a completely new program, which is no small undertaking.
Just when he was furious and wanted to bury all the technicians alive, his secretary brought him some good news that wasn't exactly good news.
"Boss, please take a look at the news online. Many of our peers are experiencing similar problems."
Upon hearing this, Hamburger immediately went online to media outlets.
The next second, his eyes widened in surprise.
The internet is flooded with criticism, all directed at their industry.
"That damn Bole.com is a bunch of big liars! Where's my winnings? Give me back my hard-earned money!"
"Don't log on to Lik.com, everyone! This website is a scam, and I have pictures to prove it!"
"Aili.com is a big scam. They even cheated me out of my $10. Everyone, please be careful and don't play with them."
"Hey everyone, haven't you noticed that almost all of these gambling websites are now 404 errors? Is this a mass scam?"
"A British internet user called to say that our gambling websites have been compromised and all the well-known websites have been shut down."
"A call from a Frankish netizen, same as above..."
At this moment, the internet is flooded with similar messages.
These messages only illustrate one point.
That is, last week, almost all the major gambling websites were hacked.
This was absolutely a premeditated attack; it was absolutely accidental.
Hamberg looked up from the computer screen and wiped a cold sweat from his brow.
These people must have been targeted by some terrifying criminal organization.
At this moment, netizens, mainly from the United States, were stunned.
Everyone realized that these websites had been hacked.
But they didn't know that something good had happened.
Countless questions were raised, and finally, someone with common sense stepped forward to speak.
"Hello everyone, I am a technician from Bole.com. I am very honored to say that I am now unemployed."
"Everyone knows we're a gambling website, a site that makes dirty money. Those gamblers always think they can win money, but they don't realize that everything is under our control..."
"Now almost all gambling websites have been hacked. I think this should be a judgment from justice, a salvation from God."
"Just last week, we were hacked without our knowledge, and then all of our week's cash flow disappeared without a trace."
"This is the key reason why no one can get their money. I can tell you, even the website owners are losing money. This is definitely a warning from God, something that hackers can't do!"
"Finally, I urge everyone to stay away from gambling and cherish life. Life is beautiful; don't lose your bicycle for a motorcycle!"
An article from a technician at Bole.com quickly attracted a lot of attention.
Even countless hackers joined the discussion.
In their view, hacking one gambling website is nothing special; what's rare is hacking so many websites at the same time.
What's even more remarkable is that such an intrusion leaves no trace, perfectly erasing all evidence.
After some deduction, they came to a conclusion.
This is not something that hackers can do now; such technology is no longer a product of this era.
This also indirectly confirms the statement made by the technicians at Bole, that this is a judgment from God.
Of course, those bigwigs who run websites don't think so; how could God possibly cheat them out of their money?
There is only one possibility: there is a ghost on the internet, a local, terrifying ghost.
Soon, the Phantom of the Gambling Website scandal spread globally, causing quite a stir.
