Levi & Korsinsky, LLP is investigating potential claims on behalf of individuals who spent and lost money playing Chumba Casino, an online sweepstakes-style casino.
Many states have gambling loss-recovery statutes and consumer-protection laws that may allow players to recover money they lost on online casino-style games that operate without a gaming license. Whether you may have a claim depends on your state of residence and the amount you spent.
Chumba Casino, operated by Virtual Gaming Worlds (VGW), offers online casino-style games (such as slots and table games) through a "dual-currency" system: an entertainment coin (Gold Coins) used for free play with no cash value, and a separate "Sweepstakes" coin (Sweepstakes Coins) that can be redeemed for real cash or prizes.
Regulators, attorneys general, and courts in a number of states have raised concerns that this model functions as unlicensed online gambling — letting players spend real money for a chance to win cash while operating outside state gaming laws and consumer protections.
Levi & Korsinsky, LLP is investigating whether players who spent and lost money on Chumba Casino may be entitled to recover those losses under applicable state gambling loss-recovery statutes and consumer-protection laws.
