I'm surprised this is still allowed - especially in games like FIFA which are played by minors. I actually don't see the difference between packs/loot crates and gambling. It's encouraging people to throw their money away for a longshot of winning something good.Four children spent nearly £550 in three weeks buying player packs to play the Fifa football video game online on the family's Nintendo Switch console.
In Fifa, special players can be bought in packs, but the contents are only revealed after payment is completed.
The children's father, Thomas Carter, had bought them a single pack for around £8, and had not realised they had seen how he made the purchase.
