with the rise of gambling these days, more and more celebrities and influencers are found to be promoting gambling platforms sometimes on television or sometimes on their social media platforms
well this one streamer is not an exception...
See newsThe KSA’s investigation began after reports surfaced of LeftlanePapi, whose real name is Djade Sadloe, livestreaming and promoting gambling activities on platforms not licensed in the Netherlands, such as Skyhills.com.
The influencer’s YouTube channel, with over 53,000 subscribers, featured videos that not only showcased live gambling but also included direct links and invitations for viewers to participate, as well as access to a Dutch-language Discord channel for additional support.
As a result of non-compliance, the KSA imposed a penalty order requiring the immediate cessation of all illegal promotional activities.
The order stipulates a fine of €25,000 (£21,519) per violation, up to a maximum of €75,000 (£64,559.62). If the influencer fails to comply, the regulator will also approach the social media platform directly to ensure the removal of harmful content.
this should be an example for influencers and celebrities to always check the kinds of things they are paid to endorse if they do not want to get in trouble
