that means there is no way around the fact that you have to disclose that it is gambling? i would like to avoid that, because people often do not keep their professional secrecy and something like that is gladly told.

i highly doubt that. since there is nothing else conspicuous to be seen there.
as i said, they didn't want to tell me what it was about until the date in question. the only thing they told me was "conspicuous account movements"

And if instead you say lottery won? Lottery is strongly accepted in Germany.

probably an unusual topic, but I'll ask for your opinions on it.

Today I was at the ATM normally and wanted to withdraw cash. Then came the message "card is being confiscated for security reasons". Zack card disappeared in the ATM. I was shocked and drove directly to my bank.
There I was told that they had tried to reach me (I did not receive a letter or similar) because of "conspicuous account movements".
I should come to a conversation with a bank employee in the coming week
The card has been temporarily unblocked, which of course is no longer of any use to me, since it is gone and I was given the opportunity to withdraw cash at the counter.

I have a very bad feeling, since it is well known that the topic of online casino is in a legal gray area and banks that process payments in this area, sometimes make themselves liable to prosecution, etc..

Unfortunately, in the past I have made most deposits at casinos with my bank account and payment service providers such as Sofortüberweisung, and usually do without e-wallets.

What could be cooking up now?

I think there will be questions asked there what I have made countless times for payments and "why why why".

Is that any of the bank's business? Do I have to say what I use my money for? Or do I also have rights before the bank in the area of data protection?




You have nothing to fear! Simply explain if demonstrably before the money comes. Everything will be fine.

lottery winnings I have already thought, however, the frequent deposits with partial names in the booking texts of the casinos look of course unrealistic...

I just went to my bank an hour ago and got smart...about Online Casinos

What a coincidence


I wanted to know of course if I can transfer the money to the account and if there is a big hit of over 20k what I have to do...???

Answer from my bank

Up to 15.000€ nobody asks...
From 15.000 to 50.000€ they ask and you only have to say that you got it from the online casino...
From 50.000€ you need a written confirmation...


So the answers to my questions today

Don't worry: There has never been a player legally convicted for online gambling. There was only one case so far where a player was convicted and the money was confiscated. In the second instance, however, the verdict was overturned and the player got his win of about 100,000€ back.

The only thing that happens, you are then hardly creditworthy at the bank, as it was with me.
