22 Oct 2024 Sahara Dunes Casino, LP (Lake Elsinore Hotel and Casino)FinCEN: 900,000 USD against Lake Elsinore card club over missing reports €831,716
The US Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) imposed 900,000 USD on the Californian card club, which admitted wilful infringements over more than four and a half years: no effective AML programme, missing currency transaction reports (CTR) and suspicious activity reports (SAR), and record-keeping deficiencies. The infringements stemmed from decisions by management.
Even small casinos and card clubs must file currency transaction reports and suspicious activity reports without gaps – management decisions to the contrary are considered wilful.
