Investigation into illegal gambling - IMPORTANT - Read

Hello dear forum, today I had a letter in my mailbox from the public prosecutor's office stating that I have been charged with illegal gambling.

Of course I did some research, everyone else has received a letter from the police.

The big problem - not me.
Without any prior knowledge, let alone any idea, I received a letter saying that I have 2 months to pay €500.

What should I do now?

The bottom line is that the law is being violated because there were no lectures, information or similar (e.g. police summons).

Should I look for a lawyer, call them first or what?

Hey,

that sounds pretty spectacular. You get a letter from the public prosecutor's office - without a prior hearing or anything like that - accusing you of illegal gambling and asking you to pay 500 Tacken within 2 months? That sounds more like a scam to me.

I would recommend that you first check the letter for authenticity and contact the public prosecutor's office if you have not already done so.

If it turns out to be true, I would think about hiring a lawyer.

This is definitely scam, because you were not even invited, and as long as you are not found guilty, why should you pay money.

Do what Jay88 wrote above, first check the authenticity, but in any case do not transfer any money anywhere.

What you have received is certainly a "cessation against condition"

Means in context as much as we have determined that you are guilty but we don't feel like starting a trial because of that we warn you and stop the proceedings against payment of XX €

This is often done with shoplifters

The thing is, the 3 groups listed don't even exist anymore, let alone I played there YEARS ago.

Soar Malta LTD, Every Matrix LTD, Online Casino Deutschland AG.

I don't check it.

It's still a criminal offense. You just made your confession. You played there years ago. A crime like that doesn't expire in 5 years. I think in 20 or 25 years. You'd have to look it up.

Bravo, now you're getting a visit from the BKA, customs and the LKA. Prepare yourself for them to break down your door at 5 a.m. and arrest you. If I were you, I would already be making escape plans.

I can't really put my finger on what happened ....maybe he wanted to cover his tracks in the gambling business and therefore turn his back on GJ Anyway, it came quite suddenly and unexpectedly ...for me at least

It sounded really serious and even though I've read you so many times before, at first I thought you were somehow having a fight with the TE or something. 😂 Even I thought it was creepy with the BKA, customs and LKA. I also reflexively thought about escape plans. 😅

Well, the first part was actually written seriously. It was a criminal offense. It won't be time-barred after 5-10 years, regardless of whether the casino is still operating or has been closed down. The statute of limitations for a criminal offense really does take longer.

The second part was meant as a joke. In the end, I also made fun of it by advising the TE to flee. I mean, come on, as if they deploy so many special units for something like that. Thought it would be taken as a joke. Apparently not. Sorry to the TE if that scared you.
