Senacon plans laboratory to identify illegal betting platforms
Brazil’s National Consumer Secretariat, Senacon, plans to establish a laboratory to help consumer protection agencies identify irregular betting platforms and refer them to the Finance Ministry’s Prizes and Bets Secretariat. Secretary Ricardo Morishita Wada said Senacon also expects to issue guidance for entities in the coming days, including on illegal betting and prediction-market platforms.
The planned system could give consumer protection agencies a mechanism to identify and refer unregulated betting platforms.
