Is It Safe Out There, Indiana Jones?

An independent study sponsored by PayPoint.net and executed by Dynamic Markets has shown figures that point to many online gamblers worrying about their safety and security online.

General concerns
2,000 UK adults were interviewed over the phone; out of that number, only 945 were found to be relevant to the studies objective for online gambling. The survey was held in June, 2008.

81% of gamblers worry about the security risks they are taking by gambling online, while 61% worry about what to do if a problem occurs while playing, either legally or illegally.

To help you on this end, we here at Online Casino Reports have a handy chart that breaks down country by country, just where exactly the legalities lay. Also, check out the Responsible Gambling section to take care of yourself before anything goes over your head - remember: sharing is caring.

Secure transactions
Many players (41%) worry about how payments are taken and winnings are rewarded to them, which prompts many companies to step up their game in reassuring players their personal and especially their banking information is secure.

Larger companies have an inherent trust built in already, which means smaller startup companies have a long uphill road to travel to build that same clientele trust their competition has.
