Indonesia warns against misuse of bank accounts for online gambling

The public has been alerted by the Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture to the risks associated with lending their bank accounts carelessly, stressing that this could result in its misuse for purposes related to online gambling.

He asked people not to accept any offers of borrowing fees in return for their bank accounts during a press conference on Tuesday.

He emphasized that, as illegal gambling is a crime in Indonesia and is subject to punishment, this practice helps to facilitate it.
