Wynn Resorts to Forfeit $130.1 Million in DOJ Settlement

Sep 7, 2024, 12:35 AM

Wynn Resorts has agreed to forfeit $130.1 million to settle a Department of Justice (DOJ) investigation into unregistered money transfers by casino patrons. The settlement allows Wynn to avoid criminal prosecution. The investigation, which spanned a decade, focused on transactions facilitated by former employees of Wynn Las Vegas. The company admitted to using unregistered money transmitting businesses to circumvent the conventional financial system. This non-prosecution agreement resolves the DOJ's concerns about illegal transactions involving foreign customers.
