From minute 13:49 there is an interview with a lawyer who specializes in gambling law.
They discuss whether there are currently more charges against players. According to the lawyer, most charges are filed because banks report conspicuous payments.
Figures were also mentioned at the beginning of the video. There are significantly more criminal charges against players in 2024 than in 2021, for example.... Nevertheless, there are very few overall.
If you really want to gamble, you should get an account abroad. The EU is no problem. I've been using an account in Lithuania for 5 years. Apart from the fact that the conditions are much better than with the shitty German banks. Real-time transfers are standard there without extra fees and they don't shit on you either.
As I am new to the forum, first of all a friendly hello to everyone.
i have also received a letter from the police with a summons as a defendant, but without a questionnaire.
It's about a payment of €19 that I made to my bank account last August. At that time, I had already received a letter from my bank saying that it was unauthorized gambling and that any further transactions would result in the account being terminated. After the letter from the bank, there was no further interaction with the site.
I am shocked that such small sums are being investigated at all. The total transaction volume was less than €100 for 3 transactions. I am therefore unsure whether it is advisable to contact a lawyer in this case or simply ignore the summons or refuse to make a statement and take my chances.
Perhaps you can help me with your experience.

In this case, I would really ignore it with 3 transactions under 100 euros and a payout of 19 euros, no public prosecutor's office will open proceedings 😄

If something comes up, I'd have a friendly knock on the door of the big media like Bild, who would certainly love to publish an article about how responsible German citizens are being pilloried for such a small thing when at the same time the big players can do what they want with a smile on their faces

The media are no longer on the side of the citizens and are often puppets of the political clowns. For small amounts, it is simply ridiculous to punish citizens from any side (bank, public prosecutor's office, etc.). But we often live in an unjust and corrupt world anyway

I sat down with a lawyer. He said that there are currently many cases like this. However, most of them will probably be dropped.
We have now applied for access to the files. Let's see what comes out.
By the way, the lawyer's fees amount to around 500 euros
