Cyber police dismantled the "gsa9game" gambling network, arresting a 30-year-old man who benefited from the site, which had an annual turnover exceeding 120 million baht. The site was pinned on Google Maps as the "Top Gambling Office in Thailand" to enhance credibility with its gambling customers.
At 1:00 p.m. on 24 Nov 2025 GMT+7, at the Technology Crime Suppression Division headquarters in Muang Thong Thani, Pak Kret District, Nonthaburi Province, Police Lieutenant General Suraphol Prembutr, Commander of the Technology Crime Suppression Division, along with other senior officers, held a press conference on the operation that dismantled the "gsa9game" gambling network, which had an annual turnover of over 120 million baht and was pinned on Google Maps as the "Top Gambling Office in Thailand."
Police Lieutenant General Suraphol stated that officers from Division 1, Technology Crime Suppression Division 5, discovered the "gsa9game" online gambling network illegally operating and enticing youth to gamble, with over 20,000 registered members. Financial investigations revealed a turnover exceeding 10 million baht per month, or over 120 million baht per year. The operation was based in Chiang Rai Province and nearby northern provinces bordering neighboring countries.
Police gathered evidence and obtained arrest warrants from the Criminal Court for 22 accomplices. Previously, they had arrested nine individuals, including administrators, financial managers, advertising personnel, and owners of mule accounts. Authorities are continuing to pursue fugitives and investigate further up to the beneficiaries.
Evidence showed a 30-year-old man from Chiang Rai Province was the beneficiary of this gambling site. Police obtained a warrant from the Criminal Court and executed search warrant number 6792/2568 to search a house in Muang District, Chiang Rai Province. They arrested the man and seized evidence including one white Honda Accord, 11 mobile phones, one desktop computer, 15 baht of gold bars, 5 baht of gold jewelry, branded jewelry, and six bankbooks, with total assets seized valued over 5 million baht.
In initial interrogation, the man confessed he had been involved in online gambling for 6-7 years. He started by working as a marketing employee for an online gambling site in a neighboring country, receiving a monthly salary. After some time, he decided to own his own gambling website, investing his savings to create one. Currently, he owns seven online gambling websites.
Investigators also found that the suspect had pinned his residence on Google Maps labeled as the "Top Gambling Office in Thailand" to build credibility with gambling clients.
Police initially charged him with jointly organizing or facilitating gambling, enticing, advertising, or soliciting others directly or indirectly to gamble via electronic media without official permission, conspiring with two or more persons to commit offenses, and money laundering.
