New York attorney general issues orders to 26 sweepstakes operators
New York Attorney General Letitia James said 26 online sweepstakes operators received cease-and-desist orders in March over alleged violations of state gambling laws. Her office worked with the New York State Gaming Commission, and the orders required the operators to stop prohibited activity in the state by the end of that month.
The enforcement action requires affected operators to stop prohibited gambling activity in New York.
