How this risk score is calculated: we sum (log-scaled fine amount + action-type severity) for every published action against this entity, then apply 1-year exponential time decay so older actions weigh less. Range: Low (<5), Moderate (5–15), High (15–40), Severe (>40). Risk reflects regulatory exposure on the public record, not internal compliance posture.

Promotion d’une offre de jeux d’argent illégale : blocage du site Polymarket

ANJ had previously warned ADVENTURE ONE QSS INC. about its Polymarket sites and found insufficient user identification and geo-blocking workarounds; an inquiry into potentially manipulated markets was opened by Paris prosecutors in May 2026.
