(Jamma) The operational activity carried out by the financiers of the Tenenza di Castellaneta made it possible to seize an entertainment machine of the "Totem" type from a commercial establishment in Laterza, without the required authorization and not connected to the telematic network of the administration of the state monopoly.
The terminal, which looks very similar to common entertainment devices, was actually a device connected to the Internet which allowed "remote" access to the remote collection of games on the network. It differs from regular devices in the presence of an optical banknote reader and a card equipped with a microprocessor.
The yellow flames discovered that the device could be used as a "video poker" and "slot machine", with single games of amounts equal to 25 and 40 euros.
Three people were reported to the Judicial Authority for violations of the provisions of the consolidated text of public safety laws and the Penal Code.
