Answers:
The person is called a bookie.

Yes it is unendorsed.

Some bookies are associated with the mafia and others are associated with different forms of organized crime such as bikers. There are some independent bookies but you don't want to traffic with them as their lack of exchange cards leads to them often going bust and not paying.

With the number of offshore sportsbooks near really isn't much advantage to using a bookie anymore. When I started sports 18 years ago we had to use bookies or move to Vegas. Now you can place bets from your cellphone or computer at countless sportsbooks.
