Customer identification and verification (KYC)
The formal identification of customers on entry into commercial relations is a vital element,
both for the regulations relating to money laundering and for the KYC policy.
This identification relies on the following fundamental principles:

mentioning six random generated numbers. Also, a second picture with the face of the
user/customer is required. The user/customer may blur out every information, besides date of
birth, nationality, gender, first name, second name and the picture. To secure their privacy.

databases. If an electronic test fails, the user/customer has the option to make a manually
proof.
A recent utility bill sent to your registered address, issued within the last 3 months or an
official document made by the government that proofs your state of residence.
To make the approval process as speedy as possible, please make sure the document is
sent with a clear resolution where all four corners of the document is visible, and all text is
readable.
For example: An electricity bill, water bill, bank statement or any governmental post
addressed to you.

It is critical that the origin and legitimacy of that wealth is clearly understood. If this is not
possible an employee may ask for an additional document or prove.
The account will be frozen if the same user deposits either this amount in one go or multiple
transactions which amount to this. An email will be sent to them manually to go through the
above and an information on the website itself.

the earth brazspin.com will categorize every nation in three different regions of risk.
Region one: Low risk:
For every nation from the region one the three-step verification is done as described earlier.
Region two: Medium risk:
For every nation from the region two the three-step verification will be done at lower deposit,
withdraw and tip amounts. Step one will be done as usually. Step two will be done after
depositing 1000$ (one thousand Dollars), withdrawing 1000$ (one thousand Dollars) or
tipping another user/customer 500$ (five hundred Dollars.) Step three will be done after

user/customers from a medium risk region.
Region three: High risk:
Regions of high risks will be banned. High risk regions will be regularly updated to keep up
with the changing environment of a fast-changing world.
Additional measurements.
In addition, an AI which is overseen by the AML compliance officer will look for any unusual
behaviour and report it right away to a employee of brazspin.com.
According to a risk based few and general experience the human employees will recheck all
checks which are done bevor by the AI or other employees and may redo or do additional
checks according to the situation.
In addition, a data Scientist supported by modern, electronic, analytic systems will look for
unusual behaviour like: Depositing and withdrawing without longer Betting sessions.
Attempts to use a different Bank account to for Deposit and Withdraw, nationality changes,
currency changes, behaviour and activity changes as well as checks, if an account is used
by it´s original owner.
Also a User has to use the same method for Withdraw as he used for Deposit, for the
amount of the initial Deposit to prevent any Money Laundering.
Enterprise-wide risk assessment
As part of its risk-based approach, brazspin.com has conducted an AML “Enterprise-wide risk
assessment” (EWRA) to identify and understand risks specific to brazspin.com and its
business lines. The AML risk policy is determined after identifying and documenting the risks
inherent to its business lines such as the services the website offers. The Users to whom
services are offered, transactions performed by these Users, delivery channels used by the
bank, the geographic locations of the bank’s operations, customers and transactions and other
qualitative and emerging risks.
The identification of AML risk categories is based on brazspin.com understanding of regulatory
requirements, regulatory expectations and industry guidance. Additional safety measures are
taken to take care of the additional risks the world wide web brings with it.
The EWRA is yearly reassessed.
Ongoing transaction monitoring
AML-Compliance ensures that an “ongoing transaction monitoring” is conducted to detect
transactions which are unusual or suspicious compared to the customer profile.
This transaction monitoring is conducted on two levels:
1) The first Line of Control:
evogam.com works solely with trusted Payment Service Providers whom all have effective
AML policies in place as to prevent the large majority of suspicious deposits onto
evogam.com from taking place without proper execution of KYC procedures onto the
potential customer.
2) The second Line of Control:
evogam.com makes its network aware so that any contact with the customer or player or
authorized representative must give rise to the exercise of due diligence on transactions on
the account concerned. In particular these include:
Requests for the execution of financial transactions on the account;
Requests in relation to means of payment or services on the account;
Also, the three-step verification with adjusted risk management should provide all necessary
information’s about all costumers of evogam.com at all time.
Also, all transaction must be overseen by employees over watched by the AML compliance
officer who is over watched by the general management.
The specific transactions submitted to the customer support manager, possibly through their
Compliance Manager must also be subject to due diligence.
Determination of the unusual nature of one or more transactions essentially depends on a
subjective assessment, in relation to the knowledge of the customer (KYC), their financial
behaviour and the transaction counterparty.
These checks will be done by an automated System, while an Employee crosschecks them
for additional security.
The transactions observed on customer accounts for which it is difficult to gain a proper
understanding of the lawful activities and origin of funds must therefore rapidly be considered
atypical (as they are not directly justifiable).
Any brazspin.com staff member must inform the AML division of any atypical transactions
which they observe and cannot attribute to a lawful activity or source of income known of the
customer.
3) The third Line of Control:
As a last line of defence against AML evogam.com will do manually checks on all suspicious
and higher risk users in order to fully prevent money laundering.
If fraud or Money Laundering is found the authorities will be informed.
Reporting of Suspicious transactions on evogam.com
In its internal procedures, brazspin.com describes in precise terms, for the attention of its
staff members, when it is necessary to report and how to proceed with such reporting.
Reports of atypical transactions are analysed within the AML team in accordance with the
precise methodology fully described in the internal procedures.
Depending on the result of this examination and on the basis of the information gathered, the
AML team:
will decide whether it is necessary or not to send a report to the FIU, in
accordance with the legal obligations provided in the Law of 18 September 2017;
will decide whether or not it is necessary to terminate the business relations with
the customer.
Procedures
The AML rules, including minimum KYC standards will be translated into operational
guidance or procedures that are available on the Intranet site of brazspin.com.
Record keeping
Records of data obtained for the purpose of identification must be kept for at least ten years
after the business relationship has ended.
Records of all transaction data must be kept for at least ten years following the carrying-out
of the transactions or the end of the business relationship.

else. Only if forced by law, or to prevent money laundering data may be shared with the
