The gambling regulator in Michigan, US, has continued its illegal market enforcement action with a cease-and-desist order for an operator based in Israel.
Tel Aviv-based Papaya Gaming was found to be offering gaming services on four sites after an investigation by the Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB).
Prompted by an anonymous tip, the investigation exposed 21 Cash, Bingo Cash, Bubble Cash and Solitaire Cash as operating within breach of Michigan law.
“The Michigan Gaming Control Board firmly believes in a regulated and safe gaming environment,” MGCB executive director Henry Williams said.
“Illegal gambling is not tolerated in Michigan, and we will take all necessary actions to protect our residents from such unlawful practices.”
The latest cease-and-desist letter comes after similar action against Bovada in May.
In August, One Country Give (One Country) in Fayetteville, Arkansas, was hit with a cease-and-desist letter.
