A red flag starts a check, not a verdict

Recognise copied domains, payment diversion, fake licence claims, account takeover requests and unsupported urgency without labelling a brand illegally.

Stop when the payment trail changes

  • A message moves payment to a personal mobile-money number.
  • A look-alike domain or social account asks for credentials.
  • Support asks for a PIN, one-time code or remote-device access.
  • A licence image has no legal holder, number, product scope or verifiable record.
  • A withdrawal requires repeated new deposits or unexplained fees.

Preserve the URL, time, sender details and transaction references. Do not publish identity documents or secret codes. The CCPC online-business caution identifies red flags such as suspicious pages, hidden costs and missing contact details. A warning sign warrants verification; it does not prove a legal finding against a named operator.

If funds moved, follow the complaint evidence route. If the situation is affecting your safety or ability to stop gambling, use urgent help.
