Provincial Police are warning Ontario residents to be careful when placing bets online.
Earlier this month, the OPP Investigations and Enforcement Bureau and the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario began investigating suspected fraudulent gaming advertisement depicting an online gaming platform hosted by Casino RAMA. When clicked, the fake ads redirect the user to a false application download page. This webpage is associated to WinSpirit Casino which is an unregistered gaming website.
In Ontario, regulated gaming sites are held to high standards of game integrity, data security and player protections. Ontario residents who choose to gamble online are being reminded to be aware of such advertisements and to always ensure the gaming site they are playing on is registered with the AGCO.
A full list of Ontario’s regulated casino and internet gaming sites can be found on the OLG and iGaming Ontario websites.
