Ten unlawful offshore gambling sites have been ordered to cease operations in the state by the Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB).
The websites, which belonged to Apex Dynamics Ltd. of Belize, were providing Michigan citizens with unauthorized casino-style games.
Aladdin’s Gold Casino, All Star Slots, Buzz Luck, Club World Casinos, CryptoReels, High Noon, Lucky Red Casino, Manhattan Slots Casino, ReelSpin Casino, and Slotter Casino are among the unlicensed operators in Michigan that have been ordered to stop providing unlawful casino-style gaming services.
According to investigations, these offshore operators broke several Michigan state laws, such as the Michigan Penal Code, the Michigan Gaming Control and Revenue Act, and the Lawful Internet Gaming Act.
Even while illicit websites accept Visa, MasterCard, PayPal, and bitcoin as payment methods, many have stringent withdrawal policies. Before they can access their earnings, gamers frequently have to bet their original deposits several times.

The operators have been given 14 days by the MGCB to stop operating in Michigan after receiving their cease-and-desist letters. Additional legal action in coordination with the Michigan Attorney General’s Office will follow noncompliance.
“Our efforts are driven by the Gaming Control Board’s unwavering commitment to upholding the integrity of Michigan’s gaming industry,” stated Henry Williams, executive director of the MGCB.
“We will keep up our aggressive efforts to dismantle illicit activities that threaten confidence in Michigan’s lawful gaming industry.”
Additionally, the board advises Michigan residents to use caution when playing video games online. Players can check the list of approved online gaming providers on the official MGCB website at Michigan.gov/MGCB to see if an online casino has a license.
