Lawsuit filed against the operators and directors behind Qbet
Nederlandse Loterij is launching a lawsuit against the operators and directors behind Qbet, currently the largest illegal gambling site in the Netherlands.
These companies are located in Curaçao and Costa Rica. To protect players from illegal, risky practices, Nederlandse Loterij wants to get this site closed down. After Lalabet’s summons in March 2025, this is the second legal procedure of Nederlandse Loterij against an illegal gambling site.
Arjan Blok, CEO of Nederlandse Loterij, said: “Players can still easily access illegal gambling sites, without age checks and playing limits and with irresponsible bonuses and misleading payment methods. Meanwhile, 200,000 Dutch people gamble illegally. It is precisely these players who run the greatest risks, because they play more often and with more money on illegal sites. That is why Nederlandse Loterij takes its responsibility and is taking the largest illegal gambling site to court, not only the direct offender, but also everyone behind it who facilitates this site.”
Last month, Novatech, operator of Qbet and 55Bet, was already fined more than 24 million euros by the Gaming Authority. In addition to the administrative action taken by the regulator, Nederlandse Loterij is initiating civil proceedings to hold operators, trust offices, letterbox companies and their directors liable.
It is the second lawsuit filed by Nederlandse Loterij against an illegal gambling site. In March last year, Lalabet was also summoned. The first hearing in this case will take place on Thursday 9 April at the District Court of The Hague.
