LEMOORE, Calif. (FOX26) — Tachi Palace Casino Resort is warning the public about a series of fraudulent online advertisements falsely claiming that the casino now offers online gaming and downloadable apps with large welcome bonuses.
Casino officials say these deceptive ads, often appearing on Facebook and Instagram, misuse Tachi Palace’s name, logo and imagery to lure people into providing personal or financial information.
“These scam ads are not affiliated with us in any way,” said Rojelio Morales, Director of Marketing at Tachi Palace. “Tachi Palace Casino Resort does not offer any online gaming platform or downloadable app for use in other states. Any post or advertisement that claims otherwise is a scam, and we urge our guests to avoid engaging with them.”
The fake ads have been linked to entities like “Game Lucky” and commonly promote offers such as a $1500 welcome bonus or free spins. They often mimic the look and feel of legitimate promotions, increasing the risk of confusion among consumers.
Tachi Palace is actively working to report and remove these fraudulent ads through Meta’s platforms and encourages the public to remain vigilant.
Here are some ways the casino says you can protect yourself:
- Do not download apps from unknown sources claiming affiliation with Tachi Palace
- Do not provide personal or payment information through suspicious links
- Report scam ads directly through Facebook or Instagram
- Always verify promotions directly with Tachi Palace via official channels
If you believe you have encountered a fraudulent ad, please report it directly through Meta’s platform by clicking the three dots in the top right corner of the ad and selecting “Report Ad.” This helps reduce the visibility of the scam and alerts the platform to take action.
