Yes it was. I know that raffle ticket purchase was being offered on that facebook group just until around when I made the post you responded to with the payment address being the same as that of "donation address".

Perhaps you were not the one operating it, but whoever operating it was offering it.

The offer had been removed, but I think the unlawful game of chance had already taken place.

This comment remains,
