From the Greek Police's Electronic Crime Prosecution Department, a court case file was filed against an illegal gambling site and betting on the Internet.
In the context of targeted actions to combat gambling, illegal betting and tax evasion through the Internet, the Electronic Crime Prosecutor's Office formed a case file on an illegal site that offered gambling and gambling via the Internet in our country.
More specifically, after appropriate data recovery and a thorough digital - internet survey, it was verified that the site was operating without the statutory permit, while escaping the planned taxes to the Greek State. At the same time, it was identified that the management and servers of the site in question are based in a foreign country.
In fact, a relevant correspondence was also carried out information of the independent administrative Authority, Gaming Supervision and Control Committee (G.E.P.), which is responsible for the supervision and control of games and the maintenance of the list ("black list") which includes websites that are viewed and offer gambling services in Greece, without a legal license.
The case file for the case was submitted to the Prosecutor's Office of the Athens Court of First Instance for immediate requests for legal assistance to be made for any further investigative acts for offenders abroad.
In addition, the competent authorities were informed, in order to carry out controls of their competence, to detect the amount of tax evasion and any money laundering.
