Gamecheck has identified over 10,000 fake online casinos since it started operating last year, 5,000 of which have been found in Brazil. We're publishing a ten-part weekly exposé series, with one drop every Monday and 50 fake online casinos named each week. This is the second exposé in the series, with a new batch of 50 fake online casinos identified in H1 2026.
Gamecheck has identified the following online casinos operating fake games in the Brazilian market. Gamecheck profile links are provided for each site.
This list will be updated weekly as Gamecheck continues its investigation into the Brazilian market, with a new batch of fake sites exposed in this series every week.
Each site above was assessed using Gamecheck's standard process. A sample of games was tested, evidence was gathered, and the original game providers were asked to confirm whether the games were real. Where a provider could not confirm this, the site was added to Gamecheck's database as "Fake Games Detected" and is now under ongoing monitoring.
The pattern in Gamecheck's data holds steady from week one. Most of these operators favour short, numeral-heavy domain names, cycle through near-identical branding, and lean on the same handful of templates to look established. Brazil's online casino market has been growing quickly, driven by wider smartphone adoption and improved internet access, according to Statista. Gamecheck's data suggests this same growth is what makes the market attractive to rogue operators: more players searching for new sites to try means more opportunities to pass off fake games as real.
Brazil's government is also tightening the advertising rules for online betting companies, with new requirements covering warning labels on addiction risk and financial loss, and a ban on presenting betting as an easy way to make money. But that scrutiny addresses how betting is marketed, not whether the games behind an advert are real. A well-labelled advert can still sit in front of a site offering fake games.
None of the 50 online casinos above should be trusted with a deposit. When a site can't show its games are real, the sensible move is to avoid it. If you want certainty, check the site's URL on Gamecheck first.
Jack Crabtree, Head of Sales, Gamecheck, said: "With this number of fake online casinos identified in Brazil, we are encouraging Brazilian operators to apply for the Gamecheck SEAL. It gives players a signal, backed by Gamecheck's checks, that the games on a site are real."
Lizzie McDermott, Partnerships Manager, Gamecheck, added: "Players should not have to guess whether an online casino is real before they deposit. The Gamecheck search tool takes seconds to use and gives players a clear answer before they risk any money on fake games."
Fifty more fake online casinos have been exposed this week, and the pattern remains consistent: rogue operators continue to target Brazil's fast-growing online casino market with fake games. Players should not assume a site is trustworthy just because it looks polished or professional. The safest approach is to check before depositing, not after.

Gamecheck tests a sample of games on each online casino site and checks with the original game providers whether those games are real. Every site checked is added to Gamecheck's database, and any site found to carry fake games is listed as 'Fake Games Detected' and monitored on an ongoing basis.
Brazil's online casino audience has been growing quickly as more players go online, which makes it an attractive market for rogue operators looking to pass off fake games as real.
New advertising rules address how betting is marketed, not whether the games on a site are genuine. A compliant advert can still sit in front of an operator offering fake games, which is why checking the games themselves remains essential.
Yes. Gamecheck is exposing 50 fake online casinos in Brazil every week as part of a ten-part series, with new sites published each Monday.
