Investigations into the companies behind the website revealed that the illegal gambling site generated nearly EUR 1 billion in turnover over the past five years. Despite repeated warnings from the French authorities and the persistent difficulties victims faced in withdrawing their winnings, the authorities suspected money laundering. Their investigations revealed fund transfers totalling more than €100 million between 2022 and 2025.

Given the cross-border nature of the online gambling site’s activities, cooperation between authorities was essential to dismantle the gambling organisation. The authorities met at Eurojust to discuss their findings and decide on the next steps. The judicial authorities and law enforcement of the countries concerned met at Eurojust to coordinate their actions. Searches in Cyprus and Malta, hearings, and asset freezes were ordered, and their implementation was facilitated by Eurojust's support.

On 9 October, two men were brought before an investigative judge in France and charged with organising prohibited gambling, operating as part of an organised gang, illegally offering online gaming and money laundering. They remain in pre-trial detention.
