The Dutch gambling regulator Kansspelautoriteit (KSA) has imposed a €4,228,000 administrative fine on Starscream Limited for offering illegal online gambling to Dutch players via Rantcasino, AllstarzCasino, and SugarCasino. The case underlines what FinTelegram has been documenting for months: these are not “minor violations,” but systematic breaches—and the payment stack enabling them is part of the risk surface.

Following FinTelegram's December 2025 exposé on the Winning.io / Scatters Group network, a whistleblower has provided documentary evidence confirming that the economic ownership and control structure traces directly to Starkeast Management B.V., controlled by Menno Jordaan. The whistleblower states: "The owner of these sites (all of them) is now, starkeast service owned by menno jordaan. he is the director of starscream aswell." 

This report provides a compliance analysis of DEPASIFY S.L., a "Crypto-as-a-Service" provider registered in Spain. Our investigation reveals that despite its status as a regulated Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP), Depasify’s infrastructure serves as a critical backend for anonymous payment gateways that facilitate illegal online gambling transactions across the EU.
