A prominent sports influencer faced criminal charges today over allegations of promoting online gambling on their Facebook page. They confessed, citing high earnings and significant expenses as their reasons. The influencer, a popular figure in the sports industry, was summoned today by the Technology Crime Investigation Bureau (SOT).

 

They were accused of posting messages encouraging online gambling, which they confessed to. The influencer stated they shared links to what they believed were official foreign club online gambling websites, thinking it was legal.

 

They posted these links under general news posts on their Facebook page, which has over 160,000 followers. They received monthly compensation between 40,000-50,000 baht.

 

The influencer began this activity during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, intermittently stopping and starting. They admitted their actions were driven by high income and family expenses, and warned other influencers against violating the law.

It's unfortunate to hear about the sports influencer facing charges for promoting online gambling. Sometimes, people might not fully grasp the legal implications of their actions, especially when it comes to the complexities of online activities.Their confession sheds light on the challenges faced during the pandemic, where some individuals turned to alternative sources of income. It's crucial to raise awareness about the legal boundaries in such cases.If you're ever interested in online gambling, I recently came across fortune casino online. Just thought I'd mention it as an option for some entertainment.
