BANGKOK, February 4th, 2025 – Thai cybercrime police raided a large illegal online gambling network in Bangkok, arresting a Taiwanese ringleader and detaining over 20 administrators.
The operation, reportedly disguised as an NFT trading website, secretly offered online gambling services, including slots, live casinos, sports betting, and poker. Authorities estimate the network had an annual cash flow exceeding 500 million baht.
The investigation, part of a nationwide crackdown on illegal online gambling, led to raids at four locations in Bangkok.
Three suspects under arrest warrants were taken into custody, while police are interrogating the admins to identify other key figures. Authorities expect to make additional arrests soon as they expand their probe into the syndicate’s financial operations and local collaborators.
