SESSION DESCRIPTION
Fighting Back Against the Epidemic of Comp Fraud in Slots
Casino promotions and player re-investment programs are the backbone of successful casino slot machine operations. With the expansion of gambling across the world, casinos are doubling down on offering free play in order to gain and retain valuable players. The incentives have drawn the attention of fraudsters who have created and established well organized syndicates of players who through deceptive or illegal means set up multiple accounts to exploit loopholes in the casino’s comp system. In this session, three innovate surveillance departments share how they’ve pivoted their protection strategies from reliance on JDLR and tip-offs to developing high-tech digital alert systems to successfully take down comp fraud syndicates and save millions.
