Manitobans are being warned of a fraudulent online gaming app claiming to be operated by the Club Regent Casino.
Manitoba Liquor and Lotteries said posts have been circulating on social media, including on Facebook, advertising a gaming application for the Crown corporation’s casino.
The application is a scam, MLL said in a release Monday.
“Club Regent Casino (as well as McPhillips Station Casino) does not offer a mobile app or online gaming,” the corporation said in a release. “Do not click on any of the links provided in these ads or provide any personal or credit card information.”
The online ads have been reported to Facebook’s parent company Meta, but the ads continues to circulate, MLL said. It was first made aware of the fraudulent posts late last week.
“We encourage Manitobans who encounter the fraudulent posts to also block and report,” the corporation said.
In Manitoba, the only legal and secure online gaming site is MLL’s PlayNow.com
Revenue generated through the website remains in the province.
