These websites have violated the Australia Interactive Gambling Act 2001 by operating without the necessary licenses and offering unapproved services.<\/p>\n<h2>Enforcement Actions and Compliance<\/h2>\n<p>ACMA enforces strict regulations to protect Australians from illegal gambling services. Website blocking is one of the primary measures ACMA employs against operators offering prohibited services, such as online casinos and in-play internet sports betting. Operators can also face blocks for running unlicensed gambling activities or advertising such services.<\/p>\n<p>Since the first blocking request in November 2019, ACMA has blocked approximately 1,011 illegal gambling and affiliate websites. Additionally, over 220 illegal services have withdrawn from the Australian market following ACMA\u2019s enforcement actions against offshore gambling.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cACMA is reminding consumers that even if a service looks legitimate, it\u2019s unlikely to have important consumer protections,\u201d <\/em>the authority stated.<em> \u201cThis means our laws can\u2019t help if something goes wrong, like if the service provider withholds winnings.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>ACMA\u2019s approach remains consistent in its efforts to safeguard Australian consumers. Last month, A Big Candy,<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/casino-news\/acma-cracks-down-on-illegal-gambling-websites\/\"> Jackpoty, and John Vegas Casino were also blocked by ISPs<\/a> after breaching online gambling regulations. Similarly, in May, ACMA requested the blocking of Jogi Casino, Dundee Slots, Lucky Hunter, Lucky Wins, Lukki Casino, Spin Fever, Clubhouse Casino, and Winport Casino.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-logo-title-box box-100 text-left relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-box box-25 relative img-radius\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/mirax-casino\/\" title=\"Visit Site\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><br \/>\n\t\t<amp-img alt=\"Mirax Casino\" src=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Mirax-Casino.png.webp\" width=\"50\" height=\"50\" layout=\"fixed\"><br \/>\n\t\t<\/amp-img><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-title box-25 relative py-10\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/mirax-casino\/\" title=\"Mirax Casino\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Mirax Casino<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n\t\t<strong>350% or 5BTC + <strong>150 Spins!<\/strong><\/strong><br \/>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"pt-1\">New players only.
