The app shuts down. This is fraud. ### 1/5 — Scam *2025-10-15* This app is a complete and total scam. They highlight about 2 to 3 handicappers and the only way to sign up to their service is through the app. My guess is is the app is owned by these handicappers and that is how they make their money. They charge you $25 to subscribe to the app but yet you cannot verify any long-term bedding records, the records only go back 30 days max and they only have about 10 handicappers on the site. You basically pay for nothing. This app is a complete total scam. All these reviews that are four stars are fake. Don’t fall for it save your money. ### 1/5 — Don’t buy *2025-09-08, version 2.14.3* Terrible app ### 5/5 — LOVE THIS APP *2025-08-23* THREE WORDS FOR YOU TRUST THE DUST BEST CAPPER ON THAT APP HANDS DOWN ### 1/5 — Information is at risk *2025-07-23, version 2.12.3* They are upset with people criticizing their application on X and are now leaking personal information people used to sign up with on this app. Stay away. ### 5/5 — SoBet ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ *2025-07-19, version 2.12.2* I have been part of the SoBet family for awhile now and I enjoy the insight of ALL the cappers on this platform. Some win, some lose, that’s how it goes !! Take advantage of the Leaderboard cappers, they are awesome !! ### 1/5 — Caulk stains *2025-07-19* This is the biggest piece of f Dook app. I think I ever done did see. They have zero accountability and everything that they do, and in every failure that the app has shown. Their CEO is a complete flake and thinks his dookie don’t stink. ScumBet should chew on some caulk. ### 1/5 — SCAM *2025-07-16, version 2.12.1* This app is a horrible horrible scam. Do NOT even think about bothering with it. It WILL SAVE YOU TIME, ENERGY AND MONEY. They pull all types of malarkey with your money if you win. It’s not worth it DO NOT DOWNLOAD. DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT. COMPLETE SCUM ### 1/5 — Scam/Bad CEO Cooper Lycan *2025-07-14, version 2.12.1* I paid for and joined a contest that was promoted as fair and honest on their app. It was neither. When people on X called them out, the CEO Cooper Lycan attacked them and ridiculed them. The software is also worthless and full of glitches. DO NOT USE! ### 1/5 — Honest Review *2025-07-14, version 2.12.1* Too expensive for little to no value. I lost 9 bankrolls tailing McNasty_Sports as well. Zero accountability for the range of issues in their picks contest, pretty unfortunate as I was looking forward to the highly anticipated NFL season. ## Frequently asked questions about SoBet ### What is SoBet?
