ISLAMABAD– Famous model and showbiz personality Mathira, known for her boldness and outspoken style, has landed in hot water after her alleged involvement in an online betting and gambling promotion scandal.
According to sources, Mathira has been working as the official brand ambassador for MostBet, a Cyprus-registered online betting app. The revelation has sent shockwaves across the entertainment industry, especially after the arrest of well-known social media influencer Ducky Bhai by the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA). Sources hint that more social media influencers could be next in line for the legal action.
Investigations have revealed that dozens of illegal online betting platforms are luring thousands of young Pakistanis into gambling habits with the promise of huge earnings. These platforms are allegedly illegally transferring billions of rupees abroad every month, with many local YouTubers, TikTokers, and social media influencers acting as front faces for the gambling mafia.
Sources further disclosed that the digital web of these gambling networks stretches across the border into India, raising serious concerns about cross-border financial crimes and sensitive data breaches.
Authorities warn that the scandal isn’t limited to financial fraud alone. Sensitive personal data of citizens — including mobile numbers, bank account details, and even real-time locations — is reportedly being harvested and transmitted overseas without consent, posing a serious threat to national security and individual privacy.

The revelations have triggered a wave of public anger. Social media platforms are flooded with criticism on these celebrities and influencers, including Mathira, accusing them of glamorizing illegal platforms and exploiting the youth for the illegal financial gain.
As the NCCIA widens its probe, more arrests of popular models, TikTokers, and influencers are expected in the coming days. The nation now watches closely to see whether the powerful gambling mafia will shield those involved or if the law will finally catch up with them.
