Israel Police Suspect Illegal
Online Gambling Ads
The
Israel Police National Fraud Unit's computer crime squad has
raided the offices of websites MSN
Israel and Start,
owned by Microsoft
and Internet Gold Ltd. The police also raided the offices of
Nana, owned NetVision Ltd. The websites are suspected of
advertising illegal online gambling sites.
Two weeks ago, at the
order of the Attorney General and State Prosecutor, the
Police Investigations and Intelligence Department began
enforcing laws against advertising of online gambling sites,
especially online advertising.
Police investigators today
continued gathering prima facie evidence of illegal
advertising on the Internet of gambling sites. Investigators
said MSN Israel and Start continued to publish
advertisements of gambling sites, despite police action
against Walla! Communications Ltd and Sport Line, and media
reports detailing enforcement measures.
Investigators today
searched the offices of websites and companies that
advertised gambling sites, in an effort to gather evidence
against suspects. As of webposting, the police were
questioning senior managers of these websites and
companies.
