Hello,

I am completely overwhelmed by the situation and don't really know what to do and would be delighted if you had any tips and advice.

I received a letter from the police on 1.10.2024 asking me to appear as a defendant at the police station on 9.10.2024.

For involvement in illegal gambling on Tuesday 4.4.2023.

What should I do now?

Thank you for all your tips and advice.

It all just makes me want to vomit. Germany should either ban gambling altogether or lift the restrictions.

So what's the point, you can gamble online, but only in casinos with a De license and everything is worse than other casinos abroad.

Anyone who can still think a bit naturally wants to take the better offer. But no, then you're threatened with legal action. I meant it's our own money and we don't buy drugs with it, which is illegal in every country.

Do not go there and do not respond to the letter. No matter what you say in such a conversation, it can and will be used against you.

If something comes from the court, you can always get a lawyer. However, there have already been several examples of proceedings being discontinued before court.

How many transactions did you have on the date shown on your bank statement? Only depositors or also withdrawals? In what amount and to / from whom?

Thank you for all your answers!
That helps me a bit and I feel a bit more reassured.

@Butterbrezel:
I have just checked.
A depositor to Whamoo Casino of 12.00 euros and a payout from Whamoo of 90€.

You deposited €12 once and withdrew €90 once. And that's why the summons to the police?

I have just looked at the account statements for the exact date and it seems to be accurate.
The two transactions went through my account on that day.

That's just pille palle. It's getting worse and worse when you get summonses for such small amounts. You have to imagine that this is out of all proportion to the amount of money it costs for such a small amount.

Well, if it goes on like this, it will probably affect many more.
If the public prosecutor goes through with it, it should be reported to the press.
The Bild is happy about that...

First of all, a big lol about the amounts. Ignore the summons, 99% of the time nothing will happen and it will be dropped. Only if you receive further mail from the public prosecutor's office could you react, but I think every judge will laugh his ass off that counts as a trivial offense.

That is so ridiculous from the authorities with such small amounts. I can definitely agree with the previous writers. I would be very, very, very surprised if anything came from the public prosecutor.

What new citizens get here without ever having paid anything into the system before and others who receive their wages fully taxed still get legal regulations on what they have to spend their money on. Then there are the many stabbers, which is currently experiencing a boom in Germany, almost all of whom get off scot-free. But the bad bad person who didn't follow all the rules in Corona times, or who gambled away a small amount of money on the Internet where he likes it and not where he has to, they get a real kick in the pants. They are much more of a threat to the state than someone who stabs a few people with a knife.
