Sports book apps are offering me ridiculous “bonus bets.” What’s the catch?

There’s a thread somewhere where someone made a little money betting one side with one casino and the other with a different one.

Here’s one.

What’s the catch with this Fanduel offer?

An online sports betting site called Fanduel has been advertising HARD here in Michigan over the past month or so. Constant TV commercials and I’m getting online ads for it as well. In the latest commercial they make an offer for an upcoming fight- bet $1 on either opponent, and if you win you get $100. This seems easily scammable, so I’m sure there’s a catch. I imagine betting on both guys is not allowed, but what’s to stop me and a buddy from each betting $1 on opposite fighters and splitting…
