New York attorney general orders 26 sweepstakes sites to stop coin sales

Enforcement & compliance

New York Attorney General Letitia James ordered 26 sweepstakes websites to stop operating in the state, saying they offered prohibited unregulated gambling. Her office said all 26 had complied by ending sales of sweepstakes coins; the New York State Gaming Commission worked with the attorney general’s office on the action.

The order removes coin sales from 26 sites’ New York operations, requiring them to change how they offer games there.
