Seminole Gaming is warning its casino guests about “extensive illegal gambling” across Florida, highlighting the dangers of unregulated gaming operations that have proliferated throughout the state.
In a letter signed by David Hoenemeyer, COO of Seminole Gaming, and the presidents and general managers of the company’s Florida casinos, the gaming operator reached out directly to customers about illegal gambling establishments.
“You are one of our most valued Casino Guests and Unity Members, and we are reaching out to make you aware of extensive illegal gambling that is taking place in Florida,” the letter states. “You may have seen news reports about the proliferation of gaming arcades, or slot parlors, or internet cafes that have popped up in many parts of Florida. Regardless of the term, they are all unlawful gambling operations, and they are a threat to everyone — not just the unsuspecting customers whom they attract.”
