The efficacy of Victoria's gambling self-exclusion program was questioned by a woman who has personally experienced the devastation caused by problem gambling and was even sentenced to almost a year in prison in 2020 for using fraud to support her problem gambling.
The woman acknowledged that she abstained from gambling for several months after enrolling in the program. At first, she believed that if she had gone into a gambling establishment, she would be asked to leave right away.
