The Use of slugs -
With the implementation
of coinless slot machines,
there are fewer slugs out
there. This does not mean
that they do not exist.
Fake or Shaved Tokens
- Players should
be on the look-out for these
types of tokens, especially
at higher coin denomination
machines.
Devices Used To
Deceive Electronic Coin
Readers - Be aware of
illegal devices that aid
cheaters in emptying slot
machines by disturbing the
coin counting mechanisms.
These can even be bought
right off of the Internet.
Some dishonest people will
rent them to cheaters right
off the street outside of a
casino for a very hefty fee,
of course.
Employee Impersonators
- You should also
be aware that professional
thieves will act and look
like they work at the casino
you are in. They will try to
be dressed similar to what
the real employees look
like, they might even have a
stolen uniform. They usually
take money to make change,
then come up with some sort
of excuse for having to
leave the floor or go to the
change area and never come
back with your change.
Whatever the scam, be
aware of your surroundings
when you are playing the
slot machines. If you keep
an eye on what's happening
around you, and look for red
flags, you are bound to
become a better, wiser
player.
Also, not everyone that
looks dishonest is
dishonest. Treat everyone
with respect, but also keep
your eyes open. Most of all
have fun!
