Casino Fraud II

One of the more common types of fraud for casinos is comp fraud.

Comp fraud occurs when employees misuse authoired complimentary transactions for their personal gain. 

For example - if two people are having dinner and one person has a complimentary sevice voucher (comp) and the other is paying in cash.  The party with the comp pays $100 at dinner while the party paying cash pays $300.  A restaurant employee switches the two transactions by closing the cash check with the comp and pockets the $200.00.

More later.

Casino Fraud I

We will spend the next few posts talking about casino fraud.  It may be hard to feel sorry for casinos, but any industry, including the gambling industry, can suffer from fraud and white-collar crime.

Some of the fraud experienced by casinos will be familiar to everyone and applies to all industries.

Another good show on CNBC - this one is peripherally attached with white collar crime, but an excellent show:

Good TV

Most readers of this blog know that I am a fan of the TV show "American Greed" on CNBC.  Aside from being entertaining, the program also has a very good explanation of most white-collar fraud schemes.

So - although I don't watch TV very much, I reccomend this series highly.
