.....................

my OP indicated a man but the main suspect is a woman executive who was in charge of the cash processing

she went on vacation just as the cash disappeared and she has not returned to work

she had to have had help and they managed to erase the security tapes

there is no video evidence of the theft itself

We have dealt with this problem for many years. It has happened at bars but we saw it more often at locations like convenience stores where there is not a person watching the machines. Many years ago we put sound queues in the system to make noise anytime that a door on the machine is open.

I love stories where people steal
from casinos who stole the
money from players. When
my wife loses I consider it
stealing because the casino
has convinced her she can
eventually win a huge jackpot
and get all her losses back.
It does not suck to be me.

I don't know, I don't really like robin hood tactics. Even in a situation like this that's still money that pays the people that work at the casino.

This employee is worse than a common thief

Your story reminded me when i had a winning streak. An old man was sitting next to me and kept saying “break the house break the house.” I was in a positive count and betting 200. I didnt want to abandon a positive deck so i could make back what i lost.

I read that s korean casinos are govt owned. Locals are not allowed to play. She stole from the govt

police now say they have recovered most of the missing funds
they found 8 billion won - $7 million U.S. - in a safe in the casino's VIP room
and another $3.6 million (U.S. value) was hidden in the woman suspect's house
they still haven't caught her or anybody else
and if this is correct she or they still have funds worth about $2.7 million U.S.
she is 55 years old
