“So the total number of accounts blocked at the request of Kominfo and law enforcement officials from January 2023 to June 2024 reached 214 accounts,” BNI President Director Royke Tumilaar said in a statement in Jakarta on Thursday.

According to the company, the blocking of accounts against hundreds of online gambling-related accounts is a real manifestation of BNI in supporting the government's efforts to create a healthy digital ecosystem free from gambling practices that disturb society.

In the fight against online gambling, Royke explained that BNI implemented a special detection system to identify accounts that are indicated for online gambling. The system uses special parameters designed to detect suspicious transaction patterns.

By implementing this system, BNI can proactively prevent and deal with unlawful transactions while protecting uninvolved customers.

On the other hand, BNI also urged all customers to be careful in transactions and not to use banking services for online gambling activities.

Royke said the measures taken by BNI not only reflected compliance with applicable regulations but also demonstrated the bank's commitment to maintaining its reputation as a responsible financial institution.

BNI's commitment to fighting online gambling is also in line with President Joko Widodo's directive to eradicate online gambling that disturbs the public.

“Through consistent efforts in addressing sensitive issues such as online gambling, BNI strives to create a safe and trusted banking environment for all customers,” Royke said.
