Michigan gaming regulator issues more cease-and-desist letters to unlicensed online casinos
Two operators were found to be conducting illegal gambling activities in Michigan.
US.- The Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB) has issued cease-and-desist letters to Curaçao-based Alistair Solutions NV regarding Lucky Tiger Casino and Rich Palms Casino. After receiving a tip-off, an MGCB investigation found that the online casinos offered online slot machines, table games and video poker to players in Michigan.
The regulator found the operator to be in violation of the Lawful Internet Gaming Act, Michigan Gaming Control and Revenue Act and Michigan Penal Code. It gave it 14 days to cease all illegal gambling operations. Failure to comply could result in legal action and penalties.
MGCB executive director Henry Williams said: “The Michigan Gaming Control Board will continue to make it clear that any operator found to be operating unlawfully will face appropriate consequences. This agency has zero tolerance for illegal gambling. We will continue to exercise our regulatory oversight and authority to protect the interests of Michigan citizens and licensed operators and ensure that all online gambling activities available here are compliant with the law.”
Last week, the MGCB issued cease-and-desist letters to 10 gaming brands owned by Apex Dynamics, a company based in Belize. The sites are Aladdin’s Gold Casino, All Star Slots, Buzz Luck, Club World Casinos, CryptoReels, High Noon, Lucky Red Casino, Manhattan Slots Casino, ReelSpin Casino and Slotter Casino.
