It has also attempted to provide information about sweepstakes, as the term is not defined under Arizona legislation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To \u201cavoid engaging in illegal gambling,\u201d an operator must not place any requirements or limitations on free participation. This can simply be in the form of mailings, extra forms, restrictions on entries, or actual consideration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Common Scams Targeting Online Gamblers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It goes on to add that sites should not falsely advertise that users have won a prize unless that individual has won such a prize.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ADG also explains that operators should \u201cclearly and conspicuously provide and display the option clearly and conspicuously provide and display the option to participate for free in the same manner, to the same extent, and with the same odds of winning, as someone who chooses to willingly contribute consideration.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ADG\u2019s PSA advises that falling victim to a scam can leave participants vulnerable to:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fake gaming platforms causing financial loss or claiming fraudulent prize fees;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Identity theft, as a result of sharing personal and\/or financial information;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>False claims of unpaid taxes or fees tied to winnings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Essential Steps to Prevent Online Gaming Scams<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Prevention advice provided by the regulator is split into four main points:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Approach advertisements with caution: fraudulent operations may promise guaranteed wins or no-risk gaming;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check resources on the regulator\u2019s website for casinos and operators that are verified in the state;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ensure the operator-of-choice has specific gambling-harm prevention measures such as self-exclusion and responsible gaming messaging;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Avoid sharing both personal and financial information with unverified sources.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In August 2024, the ADG published a similar announcement warning Arizonans about the rise of gaming scam telephone calls. The regulator found evidence that scammers were pretending to be affiliated with the regulator to steal personal and financial information.
