Minnesota attorney general sends cease-and-desist letters to 14 gambling sites
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison sent cease-and-desist letters to 14 gambling websites, targeting offshore sportsbook and casino operators and dual-currency sweepstakes operators. Ellison said the sites may violate state law and consumer-protection rules; the state’s Department of Public Safety had sent letters to the same operators in June.
The letters warn operators that Minnesota authorities view their online gambling activity as potentially unlawful.
