Intema announces the resumption of trading in its securities
Intema Solutions Inc. is pleased to announce that its securities will resume trading at the opening of the markets on Monday, November 22, 2021.
“We are excited to have our stock trading again and to pursue our growth plans in the rapidly growing esports and iGaming sectors,” said Laurent Benezra, President and CEO of Intema. “In the coming weeks, we will pursue our efforts to finalize the acquisition of Livestream Gaming Ltd. (“Livestream”), owner of LOOT.BET, and meet the conditions for approval of the transaction, including, but not limited to, obtaining a gaming license from the Isle of Man and filing the required documentation with the regulatory authorities.”
“Since entering the esports and iGaming sectors in early 2021, we have completed the acquisitions of the social and esports platform HypeX.gg, the B2B and B2C esports-related product and service provider The SMACK.gg, and the Team BH esports team, which are all part of the ecosystem we are building. We believe the portfolio of products and services we have cultivated will complement the LOOT.BET online gaming platform and website once the acquisition of Livestream is complete. We have also enhanced the quality and expertise of our management team with the addition of Scott Meyers as CFO, and of our board of directors with the addition of Art Manteris, Marc Brassard and Philip Nolan, all of whom have made solid contributions to our ongoing projects.”
“Once the Livestream transaction is finalized and the final tranche of our financing of up to $15 million financing is in place, Intema will have the tools to pursue the next phase of its global expansion in the esports and iGaming sectors,” concluded Mr. Benezra.
Amendment of By-laws
Subject to the approval of the TSXV and in accordance with the provisions of the Canada Business Corporations Act, the Corporation proposes to repeal the current by-laws of the Corporation and adopt new by-laws 1A of general by-laws and 1B of Advance Notice of shareholder nominees for election of directors (the “Advance Notice”).

Subject to the approval of the TSXV, the Corporation intends to settle a total of CAD$250,000 of debt (the “Debt”) owed to Mr. Roger Plourde, Former President, CEO and Executive Chairman of the Board (the “Shares for Debt Settlements”) in relation to his departure in 2019. The Corporation wishes to settle the Debt by issuing to Mr. Plourde 1,250,000 common share purchase warrants of the Corporation at a deemed exercise price of $0.20 per common share pursuant to a Termination Agreement dated August 21, 2019 and a final Debt Settlement Agreement dated November 17, 2021.
Executive Employment Agreement
Subject to the approval of the TSXV, the Corporation reports that it proposes a share issuance of an aggregate of up to 1,283,018 Common Shares as bonus (the “Bonus Shares”) to Mr. Laurent Benezra, the CEO of the Corporation, pursuant to an Executive Employment Agreement dated March 31, 2021. The Bonus Shares will be issued: i. CAD$150,000 or 283,018 Shares as one-time compensation; and ii. over a period of four fiscal years of 2021 to 2024, 250,000 Shares per fiscal year, subject to certain conditions, or 200,000 Shares per fiscal year should the Corporation attain 80% of the financial projection. The Bonus Shares will be subject to restrictions on transfer for a period of four months from issuance.
A full description of the Amendment of By-laws, the Debt Settlement and the Employment Agreement are set out in the Corporation’s management information circular which will be filed on SEDAR in connection with an Annual and Special Meeting of the shareholders of the Corporation to be held in December 2021 (date to be confirmed) (the “Annual Meeting”).

Casino ATM Scam in Edmonton Reveals Money Laundering and Drug Links

Law enforcement in Alberta continues to search for the last suspect in a sophisticated fraud operation that targeted ATMs in Edmonton-area casinos and resulted in over CAD 1 million ($720,487) in losses throughout Western Canada.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) has confirmed that Hisham Ismaeel, 28, remains at large with a province-wide warrant for his arrest. He faces charges of fraud exceeding $5000 and possessing proceeds of crime. Police have already arrested four other men linked to the scheme. Investigators describe the operation as a well-planned effort to exploit financial systems and clean dirty money.
The accused, Elliot Miao, 42, Van Bau Ta, 39, Hassan Jaafar Haydar Ahmad, 37, and Dennis Jones, 42, showed up in the Alberta Court of Justice last week. They face charges from fraud and money laundering to owning criminal property. Miao also has a narcotics trafficking charge after police found cocaine when they searched with warrants.
Investigators claim the group made coordinated withdrawals at several casino ATMs, timing their transactions to avoid getting caught. This action messed up ATM networks in the area and showed flaws in the systems that banks and casinos use to stop misuse.
The RCMP Federal Policing Northwest Region led an investigation that involved six search warrants in Edmonton. The Edmonton Police Service, the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC), Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis (AGLC), and several banks supported this effort. Officials said the case shows how teamwork between public agencies and the private sector plays a key role in combating modern financial crime.
AGLC representatives pointed out that casino operators in the province must follow strict reporting and surveillance rules under Canada’s anti-money laundering laws. The specific casinos affected remain unnamed, but the Edmonton region has seven licensed facilities. AGLC said its policies helped spot problems and backed the RCMP’s investigation.
Compliance experts say this fraud shows how criminals change their methods to take advantage of weak spots in reporting limits and transaction checks. They claim that casinos, which deal with lots of cash, are still easy targets unless they keep improving their detection systems and teach their front-line workers to notice coordinated actions like several big withdrawals happening one after another.
For now, the case highlights both the money and crime aspects of casino-related fraud. Besides the million-dollar losses, finding drugs during the raids points to a bigger criminal operation where financial crimes and drug dealing overlap.

Bragg Confirms Cyber Attack – Hackers Access Internal IT Systems

Bragg Gaming Group, a leading online gaming technology provider, has confirmed a major cybersecurity incident that compromised its internal IT infrastructure in the early hours of Saturday, August 16, 2025.
The company detected unauthorized intrusion attempts that successfully breached its internal network, triggering an immediate and comprehensive incident response.
Key Takeaways
-
Bragg Gaming Group experienced a cybersecurity breach involving access to internal IT systems.
-
No customer personal data or payment information appears to have been compromised.

The company has enacted full containment and investigation protocols.
Details of the Breach
According to a preliminary forensic analysis by Bragg’s internal security team, the attack was a targeted breach aimed at the company’s internal computer environment. While the exact method of intrusion is still under investigation, early indicators suggest a sophisticated exploit of internal network vulnerabilities.
Fortunately, the company’s customer-facing systems, including sensitive user data and financial information, appear to have been unaffected. Bragg’s existing encryption protocols and access control systems successfully prevented the attackers from accessing customer information.
Immediate Response Measures
In response to the breach, Bragg launched a multi-tiered containment strategy, including:

Network Segmentation to isolate affected systems

Enhanced Monitoring of data flows across its Remote Games Server (RGS) platform
-
Security Audits of critical infrastructure, including the Bragg Hub and PAM systems

Engagement of Independent Cybersecurity Experts to assist in incident analysis and system hardening
Bragg’s Security Operations Center has also elevated its alert level, initiating 24/7 monitoring across all server clusters and network endpoints. In addition, company-wide penetration testing is now underway to proactively identify any residual vulnerabilities.
Business Continuity Maintained
Despite the severity of the breach, Bragg reports that its operations remain unaffected. All gaming services, including iCasino and sportsbook offerings across regulated markets, continue to function without disruption.
“While this incident is deeply concerning, we are confident in the rapid and thorough response initiated by our team,” a company spokesperson stated. “We remain committed to protecting our infrastructure, our partners, and most importantly, our players.”
Looking Ahead
As part of its response, Bragg has also launched mandatory security awareness training for all employees to reinforce best practices and prevent future incidents.
Cybersecurity analysts will continue working with Bragg to determine the full scope of the attack, improve system resilience, and maintain the trust of its users and stakeholders.
Bragg’s handling of the incident highlights both the evolving nature of cybersecurity threats and the importance of robust, responsive defense systems in the digital gaming sector.

AGCO Removes Cap on Seller Commission for Charitable Lottery Products

The Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) has updated several lottery policies to remove the cap on seller commission for Paper Raffles and Media Bingo, along with removing the prohibition on Catch the Ace paper lotteries, to align with other charitable lottery products.
Licensed charities may now negotiate commissions directly with sellers and determine commissions, provided they are reasonable and tied to the cost of service provided by the seller.
These updates further the AGCO’s commitment to adopt an outcomes-based regulatory approach and reduce burden for the charitable gaming sector. Local charitable organizations will have greater flexibility to make decisions that best serve their fundraising objectives.
Important Reminders
• Charities must still receive approval for other expenses incurred under their licence and retain receipts for seller commission paid.
• Licensing authorities will not require documentation to be submitted as part of the application process, however, charities are still subject to audit to determine compliance.
• Charities are reminded of their legal requirement to meet their obligations under the Criminal Code and with respect to conducting and managing a charitable gaming scheme.
• As with all licensed charitable lottery events, charities must take the necessary steps to ensure that they are conducting and managing the lottery event within Ontario.
For charitable gaming-related inquiries, email an AGCO Eligibility Officer at [email protected] or call AGCO Customer Service at 1-800-522-2876, Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
