Hello,

I'll wade into this as well here.


My bank, Revolut, have just frozen my banking facilities including my crypto assets whilst they investigate a potential breach of AML regulations on some of the payments I made to a non-UK casino(I'm in the UK but I'm Irish!). At the moment all I know is that these transactions have appeared and are not the name of the casino but shell companies and also the name of a scam dating site called MyDate. My bank haven't gone into a lot of detail other than asking every single thing about the transactions from device used to IP address, payment popups etc. They are treating this incredibly seriously and my account may be locked out for up to 30 DAYS whilst this is happening.


DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES pay to these offshore operators with a debit or credit card is my advice. I'm told it is a direct contravention of current UK Law and falls into the AML regulations and is known as 'Transaction Masking'.


I have no idea what will happen with this now but heed my warning.

Is it worth trying a card complaint from twin -> Topcom PL.. Does Nordea have it?

Is there anyone who can answer whether it is worth it or not.. If you are going to commit fraud, it is not worth it. To be honest, it's worth a chance

That's exactly my humour, Revolut blocks accounts because of suspicion of money laundering hahahahahha

Maybe Revolut started looking into this now, unfortunately, that made someones account to be blocked at the moment. Which is you, that sucks. Or they just use it as an excuse. I don't know with Revolut you never know.


Hope you manage to get your account and assets back.


For the rest of us, read this, stay away from these scam casinos, it's not worth the risk.

It's so fucking strange that they first paid out to everyone, and then now nothing more than requesting KYC from everyone who emailed. In that they paid everyone back in the beginning, they have already admitted that they made a mistake...

It started from a few, and then it became 100s

so that is probably one of the reasons.

I want these email addresses regardless of whether they don't respond. Anyone got STICKERS?

Automatic translation:

If anyone manages to find contact information/email for "Ticketzone, Les Milles", it doesn't matter if they don't answer.


Need to do a chargeback via Revolut and they require you to contact the seller in order for them to proceed, so I'm stuck there.

Automatic translation:

Revolut will not perform a chargeback related to gambling. They are involved in this themselves.

Hi guys! Hope everyone is well.

Any further luck persuing any refunds? I seem to have read sone have stopped issuing refunds now?

I seem to be lucky I discovered this thread at the early stages of this.
