I’ve noticed some scam accusation posts against certain casinos, and there seems to be a trend here.

Some casinos advertise themselves as KYC-free, but the moment you win big, that’s when they suddenly put all the requirements on you. And it’s not just basic KYC, they ask for heavy documents like passports, and some even request bank account details.
That's actually true, I've noticed that, I have seen and heard many people complain about this same case scenario and it is a very bad behavior by this casinos and it shows that they have interior motive for doing that. This thread has just opened my eye concerning this issue, so we need to be careful on some casino to avoid our fund being trapped in it.

So I’m wondering, is this really a legal safeguard, or are they just using it as their own policy to forfeit players’ winnings?
This is actually a serious concern. Most of us might not have reached that level yet, but what if one day we do hit it big and end up facing the same situation?
Definitely they are doing it for their betterment and to their favour and not a legal safeguard. And if we do hit a big win someday we will surely be affected by this situation and our fund may be trapped if we can't be able to summit all necessary private documents. If you ask me I will They are being scamy and people need to DYOR to know the best casino to gamble to avoid this type of scenario happening.
