AI Fraud
The AI fraud wars: Slotegrator shows operators how to fight back in new report
Is there anyone who isn’t using AI to boost results? Sales managers, executives, lawyers, content creators — and, unfortunately, cybercriminals. Slotegrator’s new downloadable report covers how iGaming brands can protect themselves from the new generation of AI-powered fraud.
Online casinos and sportsbooks have always been a favorite target for cybercriminals.
Fraudsters view bonuses and other welcome offers as an opportunity for free cash. Abusing the offer seems like a victimless crime; they don’t view themselves as thieves, but as modern-day versions of Robin Hood, gaming an unfair system.
And in the age of AI, scammers have new tools at their disposal. Many brands have traditionally relied on stringent KYC measures to weed out potential threats, but even liveness checks can be fooled by a good deepfake. There’s also synthetic IDs to consider — fake identities stitched together using pieces of real data, stolen from real people, often purchased on the dark web.
These are just the techniques the industry is aware of. Once there’s a guaranteed method of screening for deepfakes, scammers will move on to something else; fraudsters are always on the lookout for new strategies. Operators will only figure out what they are in retrospect.
In short, you have to assume that your first line of defense can fail.
So as the fraud landscape changes, you’ll have to change with it.
As cybercriminals find more ways to use AI to sneak through your ID checks and start scaling their operations, you need to focus on AI-powered defenses. AI tools are no longer extras or bonuses; they’re essential features, and need to be treated as such. The problems that casinos and sportsbooks face today simply require a level of processing power that human teams aren’t capable of.
“In the long run, the law of survival of the fittest will apply,” says Slotegrator COO Olga Ivanchik. “Brands that adapt to the new reality by integrating AI tools will survive the same threats that sink their competitors who tried to keep doing things the old way.”
AI tools are already being implemented in adaptive UX, real-time marketing, predictive LTV modelling, and risk management. Slotegrator proposes in a new report that it’s time to center these tools and take their capabilities to the next level so that operators can identify and respond to threats as quickly as they need to.
Slotegrator’s new report breaks down the threats that online casinos face and presents a look at tools they can use to protect themselves. Download the full report here.

Evoplay rolls out Season of Legends campaign with €512,000 spring prize pool
Evoplay has launched Season of Legends, a year-long network campaign built around four seasonal phases, starting with a spring edition carrying a €512,000 prize pool. The spring phase launched in March and runs across March, April and May.
The studio said the new format follows its previous Big Adventures network campaign and is designed to drive sustained engagement through a more structured seasonal approach. Each season runs for three months with new mechanics and prize pools.
A new mechanic, Infinity Prize Drops, will run daily throughout each month and is not tied to tournament windows. The spring edition also includes a Tournament and Wheel of Fortune, each operating in four monthly phases: 1st- 5th, 9th- 13th, 17th- 21st, and 25th- 29th.
Evoplay said the €512,000 spring prize pool will be distributed across the three-month period via a consolidated leaderboard spanning participating operators. Players earn points through qualifying spins on selected Evoplay titles including Hot Triple Sevens, Piggy Bank: 3 Pots Bonanza, and the Penalty Shoot-out series.
Diana Larina, Head of Marketing at Evoplay, said: “Season of Legends marks the next evolution of our network campaigns. With Big Adventures, we saw just how effective long-term engagement can be, and this new format takes that even further.
“By introducing seasonal structure and mechanics like Infinity Drops, we’re giving operators the tools to maintain consistent player activity, rather than relying on short-term spikes. This is just the beginning, and we’re excited to build momentum throughout the year.”
