No. Nothing in the AGBET ads shows that Canto-pop singer Eason Chan agreed to work with the platform. The ads use his photos and name, and label him in Chinese as the “AG official international ambassador”.
Readers reported that Eason Chan’s portraits and even his name are used to promote the online gambling platform AGBET.

How to check an ambassador claim
Players can be lured by a famous ambassador’s image, identity and even name, so check the ambassador before you sign up: search for the original photo or video, and look for an announcement on the celebrity’s own official channels.
If something does not look right, double-check it or seek professional verification. Report any use of an artist’s identity without authorization to the authorities or to Ugrado.
