This move underscores the authority\u2019s commitment to curbing the dissemination of content that encourages gambling on unauthorized platforms.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to officials, LeftlanePapi posted livestream videos showcasing online gambling activities hosted by unlicensed providers. The KSA highlighted that these videos didn\u2019t just showcase the gambling sessions\u2014they actively advertised these illegal operators by urging viewers to participate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite receiving an initial warning from the regulator to remove the offending content within 48 hours, the influencer did not comply. The KSA clarified the consequences of continued non-compliance: \u201cExisting content must be removed, and no new advertising may be made. If this does happen, the influencer will receive a penalty of \u20ac25,000 per violation, with a maximum of \u20ac75,000.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This enforcement action marks the beginning of a broader crackdown. The KSA has outlined a two-step process for addressing violations: first, notifying influencers of their breach and requesting content removal within 48 hours; second, if the content remains, the regulator will coordinate with social media platforms to have it taken down. In cases of persistent violations, penalties will be applied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Read also: <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingeuropa.com\/igb-lve-2025-launches-at-excel-london-with-record-breaking-attendance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">iGB L!VE 2025 Launches at ExCeL London with Record-Breaking Attendance<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The regulator\u2019s statement emphasized the growing concern over illegal gambling content on social media: \u201cThe number of reports of influencers posting images on various social media platforms about how they gamble illegally has been increasing recently. The KSA takes these reports very seriously, because these influencers appeal to a (very) young target group with their activities. If influencers do not remove their content within 48 hours after a warning from the KSA, sanctioning action will be taken.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This decisive move signals the regulator\u2019s resolve to protect consumers, especially youth, from the dangers of unregulated gambling advertisements online. <mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-white-color\">KSA illegal gambling LeftlanePapi<\/mark><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dutch Gambling Authority (KSA) has taken a significant step in its ongoing effort to combat illegal online gambling promotion by issuing its first formal penalty order to social media influencer LeftlanePapi.
