In the first case of gambling laws being used to bring charges against people related to gaming gambling sites, two Youtubers have been charged with the promotion of unlawful gambling.
Before you get excited though, it’s not ProSyndicate or TmarTn or even related to the entire CSGO gambling fiasco from a few months ago. That can of worms still has to be sorted out. Instead the two Youtubers in question are both prominent FIFA Youtubers.
The two in question, Craig Douglas of channel NepentheZ and Dylan Rigby of the now-deleted channel FUTgalaxy, are being charged with counts of promotion a lottery and advertising unlawful gambling in the same case against them. Douglas also has a charge of inviting children to gamble on the sites they were advertising. The case comes off the back of an investigation into the rise of gambling in videogames in recent years by The Gambling Commission, raising concerns about how with the involvement of virtual items children might be drawn into gambling from early ages.
The men appeared in Birmingham Magistrates Court on Friday, but the case has been adjourned until October 14th. It is as of yet unknown if any other Youtubers or streamers who have been caught involved with videogame gambling sites will have cases or charges brought against them too.
