Jake’s 58 Warns of Scam Offering Online Gambling

Officials at Jake’s 58 Casino Hotel are warning Long Islanders about a fraudulent online post, attempting to scam locals through an online gambling scheme. The casino-hotel team posted this important notice to the website:

“We’ve recently been made aware of a fraudulent online post claiming to offer online gambling services affiliated with Jake’s 58 Casino Hotel. Please be advised Jake’s 58 does not offer any form of online gambling, and we are not affiliated with any websites, apps, or platforms claiming to offer such services. These claims are part of a scam designed to mislead and potentially harm users.”

In New York, although it is legal to place wagers on sports, horse racing, and play the lottery, online casino gambling remains illegal. Casino officials are urging individuals not to click on any suspicious links or download any related content.
