They were advised to gamble within their financial limits, never risking money they cannot afford to lose. Community members were encouraged to establish clear personal boundaries before playing and to avoid chasing losses, as officials cautioned against trying to recover lost money by continuing to gamble.

In addition to promoting responsible personal habits, the campaign raised awareness about the dangers of illegal gambling. Officials urged the public to avoid unlicensed gambling sites, warning that these entities operate outside the law and offer no legal protection to players.

The NWGB urged members of the public to assist in combating illegal gambling by reporting any suspected unlawful operations.
