About This Session

Illegal online gambling generates low-risk revenue for organized crime, a growing channel for money laundering, brazen local government corruption — and yet it remains undercovered by watchdog journalists. Notable trends include the recruitment of intermediaries for money–hiding “mule accounts,” and a boom in illicit betting networks in Asia. In this techniques-focused panel, journalists will share expert tips on how to track the bets, the networks, and the harms, including useful tools, datasets, and source pathways.All sessions are first-come, first-serve. That means people who arrive first will get seats. Be aware that some sessions are in relatively small rooms and they will fill up quickly.
