One more question for you,

Suppose they claim back wins from the period 01.01.2022-01.05.2022 and you pay them.
Can they still arrive after that and, for example, demand back wins from the period 02.05.2022-31.07.2022?
In other words, every cent that you have ever won? Or are they satisfied with a repayment

Theoretically, they could collect every single win. It's not fair, of course, and so far only the public prosecutors in Munich and the surrounding area seem to be pulling this stunt. Unfortunately, I am one of the few affected so far, but I hope that I can defend myself and 'only' have to pay the lawyer's fees.


If not, and more public prosecutors in Germany jump on the confiscation bandwagon, there would be a lot of money to be made considering that there must be hundreds of thousands of players who have received payouts from Malta licensed providers.
The bad thing is that you would never know how often and when they can get it. There must be many players like me who have received hundreds or thousands of payouts over the years.

You can only really hope that the justice system comes to its senses and understands that every player has deposited more than they have paid out and that it is absolutely disproportionate.

In Vaterstetten, near Munich, the same procedure was recently used to try to steal over 100,000 euros from a person who had won it from a Maltese lottery provider. The judge there ruled clearly in favor of the player and stopped the withdrawal of the money. That gives me some courage, but another judge may decide differently...let's see.
