Protection against multi-accounts, bot accounts

Protection against multi-accounts and bot accounts in online casinos

One of the most common ways to abuse online casinos is to create multiple accounts in order to receive bonuses, cashbacks or bypass limits. At the same time, bots appear that automate behavior and mimic the actions of real players. Effective protection against these threats is a critical element of platform stability and integrity.

What is a multi-account and why fight it

Multiaccounting is the creation of multiple accounts by one user.

Objectives:

• Receiving welcome bonuses multiple times
• Participation in promotions with fictitious profiles
• Partner Program Manipulation
• Bypassing limits and KYC

Consequences:

• Casino financial losses
• Violation of license terms
• Undermining the trust of honest players

Bot Accounts: Automating Fraud

Bots are scripts or applications that mimic the actions of a live user.

Signs:

• High speed clicks or bets
• No mouse movement or interface interaction
• Activation at strict times
• Identical devices, IP, behavior

The goal is the pharming of bonuses, disruption of tournaments, fraud on partner tags.

Methods of protection

Technology	What it does
IP and GEO analysis	Blocking re-registrations from a single IP/proxy/VPN
Behavioral Analytics	Tracking Suspicious Patterns in Actions
Device fingerprinting	Browser analysis, OS, permissions, plugins, languages
Cookie/Storage tracking	Single Device Re-registration Tracking
KYC-check	Document requirement for suspected multi-account
Bot detection (JS/API)	Check mouse movement, touch, latency, and browser API usage

Implementation in practice

Limit the number of accounts per IP/device
Check mail/phone/Telegram for uniqueness
Behavioral scoring - the system assesses the risk of "bot-like"
Automatically mark suspicious accounts
Connecting third-party anti-fraud platforms (e.g. Sumsub Fraud Score)
