legal gambling  

Definición

  • Gambling is one of the classic activities of organized crime, and criminals—who are often pathological gamblers themselves—remain attracted to it even if authorities decide to decriminalize the market and allow licenses to bona fide operators. Generally, three main crime problems related to legal gambling can be distinguished.First, there is the risk of criminal groups obtaining permits for legal gambling operations and using these to generate a legitimate source of income or to gain illegal money by “skimming” taxes or by scamming the players.
