ACMA issues warning letters to unlicensed gambling operators

Crown Gold Casino, Playzilla, Spins of Glory, LuckyBet and more have received warnings.

Australia.- The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has issued a series of warning letters for “serious breaches” of Australian gambling law. The warnings targeted operators based in jurisdictions including Curaçao, the Netherlands and the Comoros Islands.

The warnings were directed to Hollycorn NV, which runs Crown Gold Casino; NovaForge Ltd, operating the Playzilla and Spins of Glory sites; LBC Enterprises, operator of LuckyBet; Ridley Media, managing Joe Fortune and Stellar Ltd (Malina Casino). ACMA demanded that the companies halt activities within Australia and comply with legal requirements.

ACMA warned that failure to comply with Australian legislation may result in further enforcement action, including requests for internet service providers to block access to the websites.

Earlier this month, ACMA requested that Australian online service providers (ISPs) block seven more unlicensed online gambling sites for violating the Interactive Gambling Act 2001. The sites are Crown Gold, Maxispin Casino, Rain.gg, Didibet, LuckyBet, Malina Casino, Spins of Glory.

ACMA says, 1,338 illegal gambling and affiliate websites have been blocked and around 220 illegal services have pulled out of the Australian market since the ACMA made its first blocking request in November 2019.
