I'm unsure if this is legal from Rizk, but it's kinda unethical at least.
When you go to the live chat, they might key log you without your permission. This means, whatever you write in the chat, they see every letter you type and backspace / delete, so if you're first saying "you guys suck" but you backspace it and type "you guys rock" they will see both in their end, whatever you press enter to send the message or not.
It's kinda called key logging. Ok they know if you're lying easier for example.. but it's still in a bit dark area in my opinion. I noted this when I asked for a good will bonus, and I'm as positive as I can be that Jan-Friedrich in Rizk live chat answered to my question before I pressed enter!! Then he started to tell me lies how he did it, until he confessed it. The odd thing here is tho that in the live chat transcript he sent me, there's actually 2 seconds between me pressing enter and him answering, so from the chat log it seems I would have pressed enter 1st, but whatever the case is (might be latency or something too?), he did all the magic in around 2 seconds anyway, including:
1) Reading my text
2) Registering my text and kinda do the translation in his head, I doubt english is his main language - "brainwork" kinda
3) Type me back the answer to my question
Ok, so Jan did this all in 2 seconds if the chat log is unmodified. See bolded minute / second times in the chat log!!
Check this out and how he tried to cover his ass afterwards:

Customer Me 02:17:40 am
Hi Jan, any good will bonus available to my account now?
Jan-Friedrich 02:18:25 am
I'm very sorry but I was unfortunately not able to find any
available bonus to offer your account, my apologies.
Customer Me 02:19:09 am
Still no? :o well could you then forward the request to your loyalty / bonus team again as they have been more understandable in these cases?
Jan-Friedrich 02:19:11 am
Yes, already done. Informed the department of course. They will come back to you via Email.
Customer Me 02:19:16 am
?
Ok
How can you answer me before I even type my message?
Jan-Friedrich 02:20:13 am
I am always doing everything for the customers. I need to deny but i am always asking the loyalty team too.
Customer Me 02:20:57 am
Ok sure thing, I'll wait for an email that's ok. Just lemme know how you could answer my question before I even sent it / pressed enter?
Jan-Friedrich 02:21:19 am
Experience :) Customer are asking also to contact the department.
So always doing both.
Customer Me 02:22:24 am
Umm... So if I would have been asking for a good movie you would have answered me that answer anyway? Do you know what lie is?
Lie is what you just typed.
How can you know what I write? 02:23:14 am
Before sending it I mean?
Jan-Friedrich 02:24:36 am
I dont know what are you writing but i am now 10 years in this business. Tipico, Bet365 and Bwin. I know what customers want.

Customer Me 02:27:47 am
Ok, thanks for the suggestions. But you would have not answered those straight away. Ummm.... Man I believe you've been in the business for a long time and know what customers want, but you cannot predict 101% correct answer for their customers, like in this case when I especially asked to contact your loyalty team for this. It's not like every chat starts with that. So good try to turn around the topic, but you can see what I write in real time... or even if I delete something. Etc. That's kinda spying / against "good taste" rules.
Jan-Friedrich 02:28:31 am
No, can see nothing here but as i wrote you i am also always asking the departments because its important for me.
Communication.
Customer Me 02:29:27 am
"Jan-Friedrich
3:19 am
Yes, already done. Informed the department of course. They will come back to you via Email." you entered that one like 1 second before I pressed enter.
So c'mon man.
That's not pretty usual answer for just trying out if it's correct one.
I've been in customer care for years too, in broadband stuff mainly, and we never answer before the customer has asked the question. 02:30:19 am
Jan-Friedrich 02:31:05 am
Well i worked B2B for Colt Telecom Sales department and i got this from our NLP trainer. To do the best for our customers

At some point I got a phone call and went afk, Jan had closed the chat. I re-opened the chat, asked some more details from Jan, but he just rudely closed the chat straight away without answering anything.
