Not only does that put children at risk of being kidnapped, but leaving anyone at all in a vehicle that can get hot and stuffy for several hours can pose a great risk of dehydration, sunstroke, or even death. Not to mention, the temperature in extreme weather could rise to dangerous levels within minutes - hot or cold. And no, a cracked window won’t make much of a difference.

One of the main reasons for the success in the niche is the pandemic that prompted millions of people to find new activities due to simple boredom or desperation during the lockdown. And even those who already gambled at land-based casinos were forced to find an alternative since most facilities closed. Either way, that served as a massive spike in revenue for operators who know the art of attractive advertisement.
