CSGO Lounge was one of dozens of sites that allowed CS:GO players to make online wagers.  The popular sites have also been accused of allowing minors to gamble online. 

"We are going to start sending notices to these sites requesting they cease operations through Steam, and further pursue the matter as necessary," said Valve's Erik Johnson, in a statement released on July 13. "Users should probably consider this information as they manage their in-game item inventory and trade activity."

Game developer Valve had previously issued warnings to over a dozen of its skins.
