Spirit Mountain Casino is warning the public about deceptive online advertisements falsely claiming that the casino is offering real-money online slots, table games or nationwide remote wagering platforms. These claims are entirely false and unauthorized.
“At this time, Spirit Mountain Casino does not offer any form of real-money online slots, table games, or remote wagering platforms,” CEO Camille Mercier said. “We remain committed to delivering a safe, responsible and welcoming on-site experience for every guest. These misleading advertisements undermine that commitment, and we are actively pursuing their removal.”
Similar scams have targeted other Tribal casinos nationwide where false promotions have misused names, logos and imagery to promote unregulated gaming sites, according to a press release. “These deceptive efforts are designed to mislead the public and may put users at risk of financial fraud or identity theft,” the release stated.
Spirit Mountain Casino urges the public to follow these important guidelines:
- Only trust communications from Spirit Mountain Casino’s official website and verified social media pages.
- Never provide personal or financial information in response to unsolicited online offers or ads.
- Report suspicious messages, posts, or websites directly to the media site where you see the false advertisement.
“We take great pride in the integrity of our operations,” Mercier said. “Any advertisement suggesting that Spirit Mountain Casino offers real-money online gaming is entirely false. We urge our guests to stay vigilant and report these deceptive promotions directly to the platform where they appear.”
Anyone who believes they may have interacted with a fraudulent site or advertisement is urged to report it to Spirit Mountain Casino by emailing info@spiritmtn.com or contact Marketing Communication Specialist David Gray at 503-879-2350 or David.Gray@spiritmtn.com.
