Hello,
I was going through some old bank statements and noticed something strange. The deposits I made with my credit card to Curaçao-licensed casinos didn’t appear as gambling transactions. Instead, they showed up under random company names based in countries like Kenya and Nigeria, with no clear link to the casinos themselves.
What’s concerning is that my bank should have blocked these transactions if they were categorized under MCC 7995, which is the standard merchant code for gambling. It seems like these casinos might be bypassing restrictions by disguising deposits as purchases for unrelated goods or services.
I’m wondering if this is even allowed under a Curaçao license? Feels like a shady way to keep taking deposits when banks are supposed to block them
