The German gambling regulator has hit operator Red Rhino with a €50,000 fine after it continued to offer illegal online gaming despite an enforceable prohibition order.
While the gambling provider ceased activity on its website, its dotcom domain was still active.
Board member Benjamin Schwanke said: “The GGL’s measures are having an impact and we are seeing an increasing pushback on existing unauthorised online gambling offers.”
Fellow board member Ronald Benter added: “This goes hand in hand with channelling to legal offers. Consumers should make sure that they only use legal online gambling offers, as the strict legal player protection measures are supervised by the GGL.”
