Topic: craps casino cheque stolen and cashed Forum: Casino Meister

UK banks are on "red alert" for this since the loss of some 25Million sets of personal details in the post. This makes it highly unlikely this fraud was committed in a regular UK bank. It may have occured at a cheque cashing place, often found in deprived areas, and they would be more easily fooled by fake documents. A cheque that size could easily be stolen from the Royal Mail at this time of year, as this festive season exposes a significant weakness in the Royal Mail, not that things are guaranteed the rest of the time.
The Royal Mail have shed so many etted staff, that they have to rely on agency staff to cater for the Xmas rush, and this is how organised crime gets involved by planting people in sorting offices through the agencies. These people steal items that look to be of high alue, especially cash contained within Christmas cards (the easiest of all to launder and cover up). Cheques come a close second, especially high alue ones.
For a £4000+ cheque, the expense of several hundred pounds for fake passports, birth certificates etc for opening a fake account are well worth it.

This is a major fraud, not a "petty crime", and would attract a custodial sentence. Since the casino defied the player by insisting on payment by this insecure method, they must take responsibilty for what happened, or forever suffer the suspicion that they were somehow involved in the fraud.

Perhaps if the casino were made aware that this was being investigated by police as a serious fraud, they would realise that full cooperation with the investigation is the only iable course of action given that Kahnawake are looking to join the UK whitelisted juristictions. They cannot possibly think a player who has had £4000 stolen will simply "go away" without first applying some SERIOUS pressure.
