Match Play Coupon Counterfeiting
How it works
Fraud involving the creation or misuse of casino promotional match-play coupons, which the casino treats as cash equivalents at table games. Cheaters counterfeit match-play coupons using high-quality scanners and printers, collect discarded coupons from trash bins, or use photocopies at inattentive tables. Some exploit casinos that fail to properly cancel or track coupon issuance.
On the record
Counterfeiting forced some casino perk programs to discontinue match-play offerings. Coupons have been a persistent target for low-level fraudsters.
