After overdrafting your credit card due to gambling, if you are unable to repay and are overdue for a long time, you will most likely be sued to court by the bank for malicious overdraft of your credit card and fraud. Gambling is an illegal act and should be strictly eradicated. Gambling has caused many families to be broken up and separated from their wives and children.

According to the "Criminal Law" Regulations stipulate that if a cardholder overdrafts beyond the prescribed limit or period for the purpose of illegal possession and fails to return the money for more than three months after being called upon twice by the card issuer, it will be deemed as a malicious overdraft. Malicious overdraft of 10,000 to 100,000 yuan will be sentenced to less than 5 years; if 100,000 to 1 million, the sentence will be 5 to 10 years; if the amount is more than 1 million, the sentence will be more than 10 years or life imprisonment.
