You should always be watchful and on alert for others and potential dangers that could happen even in instances when you're not carrying large amounts of money. Also a great reason why online casinos are great, because you can get quick and easy transfers to your own wallet in a matter of minutes in most cases, and unless the site itself or the site's wallet is having problems, you'll be fine.
They have the risk of each and once again to remain cautious even though we use online casino but when we are careless then it is also a loss that we might be trapped on a phishing site. This case is different but basically we have to be wiser in facing every problem arising from gambling so that it doesn't make more losses in the end.

Walking out of a land casino with a stash of cash is very dangerous and will attract the attention of the criminal element. The safest course of action is to ask for a check.

Even most these casino's do have an option of deposits into various bank just to avoid attack from those criminally minded individuals. Most of my winnings are been done through deposit after I win the game. When there is money, there is likely going to be elements of criminal's around.

I don't know any casino gambling sites provides bank withdrawal directly but maybe in future expect such services.
Scams are there at everywhere we only needs to be careful while you are investing on any gambling sites. They may add it as centralised gambling site and add the payment and withdrawal API on their site.

You're right but am discussing the traditional method of gambling and not the casino's. Many of these ugly event normally happen in the traditional ways of gambling as it had happened to me in person, I was been robbed by my co-gamblers who lost to me. Sometimes these robbery can lead to death, so, many of these traditional setting of casinos provides more easy way to keep you and your funds be save.

That's what happens when gambler choose to behave abnormally after winning a huge amount of money from the casinos. Personally I wouldn't take such risk but would have possibly make a winning secret.

Recently, a Korean National has been robbed here in my place while riding the Taxi going home and lose the money that he won in the casinos, Its around 4Million Pesos or $75,000. This is not new in gambling industry since many incidents like this before. Do you ever think its a real accident or its just an inside job where the employees of casinos are involve or the casino itself?

This is a once in a lifetime opportunities to become a millionaire, and yet it is being taken easily by a more greedy people. Now I’m wondering if its still safe to go to casinos or better to play online? What’s your thought about this?

Here’s the link for your reference (it’s not translated in english but I’ve already share the summary of this news):
https://www.gmanetwork.com/news/balitambayan/balita/679284/koreanong-nanalo-ng-p4m-sa-casino-hinoldap-sa-pasay/story/

We never know there so many people roaming around the casinos, for all we know there are syndicates here, he must have been targeted because of his huge winning, but in the first place why ride a taxi with that huge cash, The korean is very unfamiliar here, maybe he always do that in his own country, but not aware this is very much different here.
Greed is not good at the casino,no matter how strong hand gambler has. That's why privacy matters, it alone is able to prevent such situations. For eliminating these possibilities, gamblers should avoid to talk the strangers at the casino and having a casino industry experience will solve this problem.

What if people are already tracking you, already following you even before you go in a casino? It is true though that most of the gamblers ask for a check or cheque, what you prefer. I guess we just really need to be careful around and this is the reason why I prefer online gambling sites since no one will follow you and if you know a good way to secure your computer, you are safe.
Not totally safe yet online casinos would potentially able to stole money from you but in terms of criminality then it is really

lesser compared on playing into a physical casino.Malicious intent on the very first place is anytime possible specially if someone

do knows your information and the money you do had even before or after playing into a casino.How much more if they do see that you do have big winnings.

You should really think off about your security and dont be careless if you do know that you are holding or win some huge amounts.
Be aware and be alert because people are just lurking in the shadows and just wasting up for someone to be victimized.
Its non-surprising for these kind of crimes as long money is involved there's always a tendency.

I'm really surprised anyone would just hop on a taxi with that amount of cash in hand. I still wonder if there was anything that he could have done differently aside from being "more careful". Don't these casinos do bank transfers for their customers? I mean, I know he likely don't have an account in a Philippine bank but still...

if its online then its possible but if its offline then chances are he will have its winnings in the form of cash but bank transfers are more safer and should be implemented on offline casinos just to be safe when you leave the place because you wont know if there are robbers that are spying on you but to be honest this was my first time to hear a gambler that is being robbed , i think what happen to him is only a  co incident because robbers dont usually choose thier target  . robbers can attack randomly whenever they see that thier victim is too careless enough or unware of its belongings  .

In many of the casinos that I have visited, they have a system to deposit money directly in to your bank accounts, in case you win a large prize. Obviously some people prefer physical cash instead (helps with tax evasion), but most of the gamblers go for this option. In case the gambler prefer physical cash, he may be armed or may be in the companion of armed bodyguards.
That sounds more like a first world option, it sounds like this took place in Mexico where I doubt either of those were an option.
We have so many options in this regard; we can get safe with just little care. Use wallet for your money transfer, in market so many people are just waiting for other people who wins money and comes outside of the casino so they can rob them, so better do something for your safety better play online it gives online transfer.

As long as you can save the check in a safe place in your pocket, you don't have to worry about the bad things. But to hear a gambler was being robbed make us careful, especially if we are play gambling in the real gambling places and we win big money. Maybe we can ask them to hire their guardian to protect us to our home so we can be saved.

It's still not safe even if its in a check.  Criminals can force you to encash it by threatening your life. It's better if its via bank transfer then withdraw it to a bank in a crowded place. Get someone who will accompany you, don't go alone and don't make it obvious that you have large amount of money.
Much better idea if possible, wired transferred will not obviously see you as target, it's safer than any other options you can walk away from the house without any worries not unless the house itself is the criminals behind or the house itself is a major player inside the syndicate then you are really having a lots of troubles.

Do not take big amount of money in cash and use bank transfer or other online way to transfer the money.


That's necessary, especially if you are in a country where the crime rate is very high, especially for robbery.
I'm sure a decent casino would offer an online transfer or deposit, or some would even allow you to just take a check, don't know why he haven't thought of that.
Of course when you have so much money after winning so people will surely try to robe you, as there are so many bad people in the world, just try to avoid having so much money with you, if you will go to some professional casino they will surely give you safety and will give you proper money transformation to your account so no one can harm your money.

^ Just adding some ideas, A person who enters a casino must make sure that he has enough asset to fight against robbers. Because winning in gambling would make him a target of the robbers that are mostly syndicated. A connection is also a must so they would help you with these kinds of troubles. And if they are the one in charge, they won't target you since you are also on their side as a friend. Hiring a security guard would also cost you less than a hundred dollars for a day so if you are carrying a 75,000 usd, a hundred is not a bad thing to invest it on your security.
