All sorts of social engineering going on. I’m sure the employee was told by the supposed owner (but scammer) they are the ones that their cage boss Mr. X was told they could trust most. But that this had to be done on the down low and quick with cash because the casino messed up and were non compliant the last 2 days with fire code and could get shut down…and they don’t want the fire department or governors office to know that they weren’t compliant.

How this cash then could just get taken out of the cage without any further question outside of the employee saying “Mr Stevens said to do this” is an issue, but casinos arent thst naieve either, so maybe there is some code word used for this type of situation that the scammer knew and thus was verified when the employee used it by whoever else let the money out the cagr.

Finally, it sounds like not a totally uncommon thing for cash to leave the cage like that in general for various payments which the IRS may take issue with and casinos may not fully like to report all those details as part of a story line this.

At the Four Winds Hartford Casino an employee bagged 700,000 and walked out. She made the delivery in Gary, IN and was arrested shortly after on July 30.

There are controls in place already. These women decided that a phone call was enough to override all controls??. Unbelievable

I blame the public schools.

And the casino should have a policy that any money transfer or payment over a certain amount, say $10,000, has to be approved by a manager or supervisor, no matter what time of day or night. This would help eliminate huge thefts life this scam. Can’t believe how easy the bad guys have been able to pull this off multiple times.

Just routine procedure. It’s normal to get a call or text, put $300K in a bag, and give it to a courier. Like it happens all the time. So, yeah, I’d say the investigation is in progress. Large payments to safety inspectors didn’t even raise an eyebrow. Yikes.

What lady? This happened at several casinos. There were many who fell for it. This is basically a ransom scam. They’re not new. However, I am a bit taken aback by the fact that a cashier can just put $300-500k in a bag, walk out the front door, get in a car and trot on down to a drop location like it’s just a trip to the grocery store. That part makes no sense.

It’s called social engineering. I work in IT and we have security lessons on it all the time, as it’s very rampant. I’m sorry but this lady didn’t have common sense. From what I read she was take money OUT of the casino and deliver to RANDOM places across the Las Vegas Valley. At some point before doing this did she not think, hmmm let me run this up the chain to see if this makes any sense (it totally doesn’t). So yeah she should be fired for not using COMMON SENSE. A thing that is unfortunately lacking in today’s society.

(further information unavailable pending investigation) — Las Vegas Strip, Downtown Las Vegas, Boulder Hwy — some Corporate owned, some not, and a well trained Group knew what they were doing (and now 1 more Casino in Denver Colorado could be added? these have to be serious Federal Felonies charges!) — thank goodness Circa has top notch Security! Because of how sophisticated this theft scheme, I would neither terminate employment of / nor arrest the Casino Cage Manager (I would retrain the whole Cage Staff, that way this doesn’t happen again).

This story recounts the ones that got caught, meaning they were the bad ones. Do not underestimate the ability of good actors being absolutely convincing. As other say, be skeptical when money or property changes hands. Always always always have >1 person involved. Someone that works a cage should know no one handles money alone. There’s. A. Procedure.

I think about this every time a car rental company invites me to return a vehicle at their “drop box.” “Put the keys here and we’ll do the rest.” Yeah, bullish*t. Then I get a bill for the “damage” they find later. Or the car is “stolen.” No, I want a receipt, with an employee name and number. And I take a picture of the car, and a video with that employee in it. Might be not be a slam dunk, but at least I have some evidence.
