Hi,
I have been aware of andysfootballtips for around 5 years from Witter. He came up on Instagram probably from the increase in traffic from the new season starting.
I am very sceptical of tipsters because they have deals with bookies and bookies don't want to lose money.
He has 190k followers on IG but his posts only receive around 5 or 6 comments which seems very odd.
Has anyone tried following his tips?

If he has 190K followers on Instagram he must be an expert.

I used to follow him on instagram. He did some good midweek trebles that would come up occasionally (short prices) but a lot were weird leagues like Norwegian/Slovakian/Paraguayan and you might not even find odds on them on bookies sites.
Don't take Instagram followers as a sign of success, you can buy 20k followers for under 100 quid/euro/dollars so less than 200k for probably 1500. Only takes a few subscribers at high prices to cover that and then he's in profit regardless of his tips.
Tipster-ing is a quick route to easy money but I'd rather keep my dignity and sell my used underpants on Onlyfans
If you've looked for tipsters/free tipsters/hot tips on shitter/insta/facebook etc then you're in the algorithm now and you'll see them forever more!

Most tipster accounts on social media are just there to drive affiliate business or get rewarded for promotion in some form, they could give a f**k if their tips win or not.

Why bother? If you already know the results

What's he really saying there is he's guaranteed to profit either way, while aynthing you might gain is just a little bonus
