Online Casino SEO Scam

A new scam is in the works. BeTheDealer Casino, who spearheaded the "fortuno Winnero Google Contest, offered a cash prize pool of $7000.00. Basically, to participate, webmasters were asked to put this on sites (I've made changes made to syntax show the code, not run it):


I'm participating in the challenging [a href='http://www.btdino.com']search engine optimization competition[/a][br]organized by BeTheDealer [a href='http://www.bethedealer.com/index.html']online casino gambling[/a].
