FinCEN fines hotel and casino $900K for BSA violations

Yesterday, FinCEN announced it has assessed a $900,000 civil money penalty against Sahara Dunes Casino, LP DBA Lake Elsinore Hotel and Casino (Lake Elsinore) for willful violations of the Bank Secrecy Act and its implementing regulations.

As part of its resolution with FinCEN, Lake Elsinore admitted to willful violations of the BSA, including failing to implement and maintain an effective AML program, failing to file currency transaction reports (CTRs) and suspicious activity reports (SARs), and certain recordkeeping failures. Lake Elsinore’s willful violations of the BSA, which continued for over four and a half years, resulted from decisions made by the card club’s management. In addition to the civil money penalty, Lake Elsinore will also be subject to an AML program review.
