The UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) has launched a new confidential tip line, allowing people to securely submit information about suspicious or criminal activity through an online portal. The “Tell us something with confidence” service can be accessed directly through the regulatory body’s website.
Some of the types of activity that individuals can report include money laundering concerns, match fixing, underage gambling and unlicensed activity. People should not report any complaints about licensed operators or non-gambling-related crimes.
They can attach documents and photographs to their correspondence
Guides can attach documents and photographs to their correspondence, as well as leave their contact details if they wish. UKGC will also accept additional information by post or email.
The UKGC already has a confidential advice telephone service and is constantly looking at ways in which it can combat illegal activities in the UK gambling sector.
