Recently I decided to try out d sports betting website Kokobet.com using little funds. As it turned out I won over 8k and decided to make a withdrawal from my online account yesterday. Still haven't received the money till now, so I did some research and discovered the owner is one Idowu Olayiwola. I added him on whatsapp and decided to chat with him. Instead of apologising, he was extremely rude, and ended up BLOCKING ME. His number is 0805224396. I did some more research and discovered he's also the owner of CYBERBUDDIES LTD located at number 3A Onasanya street, off Ishaga road, Surulere.....I also discovered his facebook profile. Here it is: https://www.facebook.com/idowu.olayiwola . I'm going to involve law enforcement within the coming days, even if I spend money in the process. Just a warning to you all.... STAY AWAY from Kokobet.com . Anyone who can offer any kind of assistance in catching this guy can also indicate on this thread. Here are screenshots of our conversation. His number is 08052243964.....people are also complaining on their facebook page.

The title of this thread should change from "How The Owner Of Kokobet, Idowu Olayiwola Is Scamming People. (photos) " to "How I got my kokobet account suspended for telling lies on nairaland, reporting Idowu Olayiwola to his family members on Facebook, threatening to arrest him over a N6000 withdrawal and not reading and understanding the kokobet terms and conditions"
Please find the withdrawal notifications from our bank below on 03-Jan-2017 and 19-Jul-2017.

71,000.00

These are the lies in your claims:
You didnt recently try kokobet
You didnt withdraw for the first time yesterday
You didnt discover Idowu Olayiwola recently, you have threatened to arrest him in December/January

Points to consider
Expecting an apology over your own ignorance and negligence is simply childish behavior.
Expecting him not to block you is expecting too much from any human being who likes to have peace of mind after he has taken necessary actions
Warning people not to win N71,000 and N8,422 just like you just did (with all the facts provided here) is simply hate speech and I am sure it violates Nairalands terms of use in a way, knowing that you have already violated facebook's terms of use by sending unsolicited messages to Idowu Olayiwola's family members and violated Kokobet terms by threateneing to arrest Idowu Olayiwola only 24 hours after your withdrawal request was made.
The other complaints you talked about on facebook are from "Terms of Service" violators like you. As you can tell from that ignorant review, our minimum payout is N2000 and they claim that we dont payout as little as N1000 of course it violates our rules.

If you didnt get your N71,000 in January, you wont come back to collect more in July. The first threat to arrest Idowu Olayiwola came in December/January over the N71,000 withdrawal thus his unwillingness to attend to you when you contacted him in July when the second threat followed
We do not tolerate this kind of behavior at kokobet. Betting on Kokobet.com is meant to be for fun and we support responsible gaming on our platform. It is not supposed to get to threats, complaining on nairaland and reporting to anybody's family members you dont know on facebook.
Read the terms and conditions that concern you below:
5. All withdrawals from betting accounts will be subject to audit before being processed. If the audit shows that the Customer has violated the provisions of the Terms of Use, Kokobet may reclaim any bonuses or winnings previously attributed.
6. Payouts handled manually through an ordinary bank transfer are processed within 5 banking days. However the Customer acknowledges that we are at the mercy of the banks and Payment service providers in this regard and cannot do anything to speed up this process. As an alternative, withdrawals to e-wallets such as Neteller, Skrill Moneybookers etc. are usually processed within 24 hours from the request. Kokobet reserves the right to carry out additional verification procedures for pay-outs exceeding certain amount, or when there is a suspicion of misuse of accounts or money laundering.
XIV. TERMINATION
Kokobet shall have the right prior to accepting any bet, temporarily to suspend or permanently to terminate, the provision of betting services to a Customer without providing any reason.
These Betting Rules are effective from 13/09/2015

Not to worry, all your money has been paid out before this termination of your account. Thank you for trusting kokobet for at least a minute.
Bye

I'm sure your story is half true or even lies. I've been using Kokobet.com since late last year and I can bet with my balls they are reliable. I cashed out 10k from my 12k winnings as at 7:45 am this morning and by 8:07 I saw my alert. Movingbet.com is still holding my money since 12th June and I feel helpless each time I check my account and see pending withdrawal. you can check my posts against them here. Though idowuolayiwola is their staff and he has help me resolve issues with the site before now, Its a privilege you can access him privately and you abused it that's why he needed to block you. I've had issues with bet9ja and I didn't have a chance to even privately chat with any of their staffs not to talk of Akin Alabi himself. I will advice you apply diplomacy in handling this issue. that's even if you haven't see your alert by now.

basictutor:
Honestly morons like you are getting rampant. Why cry foul over little delay like this? It happens everyday and it is majorly due to banking hitches. I have used at least 8 bookies and kokobet's payout is second to none. Try bet9ja and see how long you would wait. Or other ones that you won't even have anyone to contact.

If you continue this you'd be paying seriously cos you're dealing with an entity which is way bigger than u.

ifyclose2:
If you feel the whatsapp screenshots I posted are appropriate for the CEO of a sports betting outfit, then your mental instability is beyond any cure. The Kokobet owner has brought all of you from his whatsapp group to come and post on this thread. Since you have so much confidence in Kokobet, why don't you invest all your life savings in it, then come here to cry foul when you win big and they refuse to pay.... clown.

ifyclose2:
you're OBVIOUSLY a friend or affiliate of the Kokobet owner, and he asked you to post this. Nice try, but you aren't deceiving anyone.

I wonder how this guy became a medical doctor... did he pay his school fees with betting money or bribe his way through with betting winnings? Why is he so serious about 6000 withdrawal?

Facebook t&c can't read and follow
Nairaland t&c can't read and follow
Kokobet? Of course that's the last thing he will read because obviously he is a medical doctor that can't read... if you have guts please provide your real results from any university that gave you your medical degree and if you have a good medical job paying you well provide such references and I will simply show everyone how much of a failed human being you have turned out and why your inability to read will continue making you fail in life.

Let me remind you of the Nairaland terms again
10. Don't violate the privacy of any people e.g. by posting their private pics, info, or chats without permission.

Did you ask for permission from nairaland to post my private chat, facebook pictures, with you on Nairaland? No

. Don't abuse, bully, deliberately insult/provoke, fight, or wish harm to Nairaland members

I feel deeply provoked to anger by this post knowing there is no validity in your claims and it will be reported to Nairaland immediately

8. Don't post false information on Nairaland.
There is no truth in you since you dont read, so you don't even know how to tell it

I'm also a product of better by far so don't disgrace me here. Let's be truthful for once. Check my profile, I've been on Nairaland for a while and I've witnessed different scenarios about betting companies. in fact I was recently a victim of one of the scamming betting websites but Kokobet has proved to be the best for over 8months now that I've been with them. Let's be truthful here, bet9ja has delayed payments for more than a day and no one has ever called for the head of @akinalabi. Its a privilege to have easy access to the management of the betting company you are staking with through WhatsApp and that shouldn't be abused. in fact that's what glued me to Kokobet. Because of delay in payment of 6k which is even less than 48 hours, the guy is hell bent of destroying a good brand and also spoiling another person's image, not only that, threatening from Facebook to Nairaland. Make the guy go sleep, he deserve to be flogged at the market square.

IdowuCyber,
Your choice of words and the way you are replying here is too too harsh.
People & potential customers are reading thru this thread.

acevic:
Now I understand how some bizs crash along the line. Bad customer service.

Mr Idowu...you are causing more damage to kokobet reputation with your manner of responding to issues. Even when you know a customer is a real pain in the bumbum, it's still required of you to pamper such customer. Not because you don't feel bad but because it's important to act professionally on the job.

Just my 2cents....but what do I know?

dowjones:


Wow man, You are the rudest thing i've come across. Yes, Most Nigerian business men can be apologetically rude but this is beating the scales.

I have no business with betting.. i just stumbled on this thread but your replies to a third party observer who's trying to pacify issues is bloody.

You sound like those illiterate market women in lagos island and men in Alaba. Very defensive and rude.

Even if you have reason to be rude to the "ignorant customer", you have no reason to be rude to an observer. that shows your true nature as a very brutal person who can go crazy with little or no provocation.

anybody who decides to do business with this company after seeing your venomous attitude must be a dummy

Good luck to you. You'll need it

IdowuCyber:


If you see what I said to the observer as rude then you get the point. I wished him well from his own perspective because he thinks ifyclose is a customer king so he deserves 1000,000 kings and 1000,000 Nairaland posts like this. Its a good thing.

Have you ever wondered why the Nigerian businessmen became rude? Do you run a business in Nigeria? If it was a different society I will press charges and probably get him in trouble for defamation of character first he called we owner, then CEO of Kokobet. None of these titles are true. I'm CEO Cyberbuddies obviously and there is no place on Kokobet.com where it says I'm CEO or owner or customer service representative. This is pure blackmail and it is absolutely disgusting. Thats why he got banned.


Everyone defending him should receive the same thing he gave to me. Thats if he is not the same person with multiple accounts. You can all see that he is silent now.
