The Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission (VGCCC) is monitoring social media influencers who post gambling-related content and is considering regulatory and legal action if the material is found to breach the state's gambling advertising laws.
The regulator is assessing whether posts featuring poker machine gameplay, venue visits, or gambling wins could constitute illegal gambling. The VGCCC aims to ensure that influencers adhere to the state's regulations regarding gambling advertising to protect consumers from potential harm.
