The ACMA Urges Curaçao to Cease Online Casinos Targeting Australian Customers
The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) recently issued a statement urging the authorities in online gambling hub Curaçao to cease and desist in allowing licensed online casinos to target Australian consumers. As a response to this, the ACMA has decided to extend its blacklist of online casino operators.
ACMA's Blacklist Stands as a Warning to iGaming Community
These new additions to the ACMA's blacklist come as a stern warning to the iGaming community. The ACMA has been relentless in its goal to protect Australian consumers from unregulated and potentially harmful online casino activities. The question arises: How effective can this blacklist be?
While the efficacy of the blacklist currently stands as a topic of debate, it is clear that the ACMA's determination to clamp down on this particular issue is steadfast. It is hoped that this latest move by the ACMA will prompt other regulatory bodies to take likewise stance in safeguarding the consumers in their respective jurisdictions.
What Can Players Expect?
The ACMA urges Australian players to withdraw their funds from unregulated online casinos immediately. Operating without a license in Australia is illegal, and players risk losing their deposits and winnings. This move by the ACMA helps to ensure that the Australian online gambling community is protected and continues to enjoy the extensive variety of games from trusted game providers such as NetEnt, Microgaming, and Betsoft.
