The Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB) has intensified its efforts against offshore and illegal gambling operators by targeting 19 new entities. On Wednesday, the regulator announced it had issued 19 cease-and-desist letters to these operators. These gambling websites and operators have 14 days to comply with the order, after which the issue will be escalated to the appropriate authorities, stated the MGCB. The board has demanded that the listed websites cease all activities aimed at consumers in Michigan. Importantly, the regulator noted that these websites violate Michigan’s Lawful Internet Gaming Act and Lawful Sports Betting Act. Additionally, the MGCB is investigating other potential violators, including BoVegasCasino, BUSR, CherryGold Casino, Lucky Legends, and Wager Attack Casino. Henry Williams, the Executive Director of MGCB, commented on the recent actions taken against the illegal gambling market: Illegal gambling operators threaten the safety of our citizens and compromise our gaming industry’s integrity. Without proper licensing, Michigan players lack essential protections. That’s unacceptable, and we’re taking firm action to prevent it. The MGCB emphasized that the listed websites failed to provide sufficient consumer protection and operated in the shadows, putting consumers at risk, as Williams pointed out. Furthermore, Michigan regulates both iGaming and mobile sports betting, requiring any operator wishing to enter the market to obtain a license from the authority. This is not the first instance of the MGCB acting against offshore gambling. In February, the regulator took measures against nine other websites.
