Question about Gambling websites with Curaçao license using incorrect Merchant Category code (page 837)

Look for a Russian profile made yesterday its obv !

I had to come back to respond to the warning posted by the Head of Community on here - it is extremely important to give a wider view on this.

I understand the point about choice and people making the decision to play on such sites - totally understand that.

However, to deploy a payment mechanism to deliberately circumvent global banking rules and legally binding processing rules for all merchants on VISA/Mastercard is absolutely wrong regardless of what way you look at it. The fact is that players wouldn't be playing on these sites if this highly illegal route didnt exist. It is fraud - there is no other way of putting it - its defined as payment fraud by the payment schemes themselves. Payment fraud is equated to money laundering. The definition of money laundering is taking money your not supposed to be able to get and hiding/cleaning it using complex strategies - this is EXACTLY what these companies are doing. Why do you think Europol and AMLA are investigating numerous casinos(promoted on here actually)?

If CG feels that this is entirely acceptable then fine, but it needs to be called out. By promoting these sites on here you are condoning money laundering/fraud at a casino level - yet you still feel the need to put out warnings to players about "potential lawsuits and fraud accusations".

Ill give you an example - Santeda Group - they are happy to send the same copy and paste email to everyone who queries this with them. However, they are not so quick to reply when Mastercards compliance teams are copied into emails...in fact...they and their payment processors have been silent for a month since I introduced everyone on the same email and asked them for an explanation of how they can hide gambling payments as shopping or money transfers! Why on earth would they not be replying???????

Get the casinos on here to defend themselves - I'd more than welcome their viewpoints if they think what they are doing is perfectly legitimate.

Hey just reading through and seen you had some joy with Artstrid how did you get ahold of them if you don’t mind, I had found an email a little back but heard nothing from them.
