huh? but it's not about whether he pays 50€, but that there is a threat of criminal proceedings or not? i think it doesn't matter whether it's 50€ or 50,000€, he got a transfer from the casino and not an invoice from the public prosecutor's office, which you just pay and then it's done, no. so i would now go the known way...do nothing and wait and see if it is stopped. or if not, off to the lawyer.

in any case, it's absolutely ridiculous and the charges are piling up more and more. i wonder when it will hit me.

Exactly. The chances of it going to trial are slim because of the amount involved.

But it's become really scary that even €50 is cause for an investigation.

It's more than ridiculous that such a fuss is being made over an amount of €50.

Hi folks,

My account was blocked this week and I wanted to ask how long it took for you to receive a letter/notification.
Of course I'm terrified, but I'm assuming this is the case as I played a lot and also cashed out my account. To be honest, I didn't realize it was so stupid. I only discovered that it was stupid when I was researching the account termination here in the forum.
So I'm definitely expecting a letter.

Can anyone recommend a lawyer who has successfully won such cases? I want to be prepared and don't want to start searching on the day.
I'm dealing with 5-digit deposits and withdrawals.

Depending on the state, it can take up to 2 years until something comes. Expect at least one.

Well, it depends on the state I guess, a few years ago, a friend once dropped a half-smoked joint out of his pocket in Nuremberg main station when changing trains, he picks it up, you don't want to leave nothing dirty, and before a child picks it up in the end. Someone from the Bavarian BFE or BGS noticed this and immediately made a seizure, carried out intensive checks and filed a complaint, and that for maybe 0.1 g that was still in there 😅 Bayern halt ☝️😅😂

I don't think you can compare Bavaria with any of the other German federal states either.

I'll send the hearing form back to the police tomorrow with the cross that I won't make a statement. 🙈

Hello everyone, is anyone here already after the police summons or received a cessation of proceedings?
