Declaring the amount of upcoming grand prizes in the nation's two largest weekly lotto games - Viking Lotto and Bingo Lotto - can be compared to gambling advertisements, Kadri Kauksi, spokeswoman for the agency, told uudised.err.ee.

According to the Advertising Act, ads may not encourage people to participate in gambling or suggest that playing games for money could increase a person's social status.
