Casino industry urges federal prosecutors to crack down on illegal operators

Casino industry urges federal prosecutors to crack down on illegal operators. American casinos, gaming companies and lawmakers are calling on federal authorities to investigate illegal offshore gambling sites. The push comes as sports gambling has quickly expanded in the U.S. in recent years. More than 30 states and Washington, D.C., allow it. Online searches for offshore sportsbooks rose faster than searches of regulated operators last year. More half of gamblers still wager using offshore sites like Bovada, MyBookie and BetOnline. Legal operators spend billions on licensing, marketing and lobbying for the legalization of sports betting in new states.
