I'm guessing it was a real accident because if it was an inside job several cases should've been reported.

Gambling in a casino is never safe because anything can happen but it won't always happen. Even if you're with someone they could easily outnumber you.

Why would he bring that big amount of money in cash, he tooked a taxi bringing that cash, I think it's his fault.
I think there is an option in a casino to withdraw your winning in check, just not sure, but he should be very careful.
You know, money is hot in the eyes of the criminals, so he better know that risks.

It's not entirely his fault for getting robbed. He could still get robbed on his way home even if he didn't brought all of winnings in cash.

How on earth someone would know that you won in casinos if no one from the outside knew that it was you? I'm pretty sure it must be an inside job because they already know where the Korean National riding. Though, we can't exactly say if it is an inside or maybe the taxi driver itself is the one who calls his thief friends. Whatever the reason is, i think it is not safe for any not locals to win such big amounts of money in any casinos IMO.

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?

This is something that has been happening often, it might be an inside job for casinos, or it might be some specialized gangs who goes into casinos snipe easy targets who they just won and have no security just like this guy and just rob them, and they probably can't anything about them, that is why online gambling has become more and more favorable especially in areas where these kind of accidents happen.

Online casino is safe play at home using computer and internet connection the winning bet money are paying through online banking system of it easy if the payment is made through digital currency bitcoin (the safest way no need to travel bringing cash).
but playing in casino house is make enjoy play with the people face to face specially people can enjoy playing with there friends, the incident aren't the owner of money fault because they didn't call help to the trusted relatives to travel their money.

That's why online gambling is becoming more and more popular. I think those guys knew who to hit. There's a chance they were tipped off by someone by casino staff or had their man inside the casino watching people withdraw money. They just needed to make a call from inside the bathroom or something describing the guy who won and that's all there is to it.

Foreigners like this one are the most likely target of these criminals especially if they are not aware of the situation of the country. That is why security personnels are getting popular these days as they always need to be protected from these criminals. But what the hell? Why did they even know what taxi to robbed at? This just sounds to me that even the the one driving the taxi is involve, this cannot be just a coincidence as they obviously know who the target was and when and where they will rob him.

I don't think foreigners are being targeted. If it was a local resident carrying 75 thousand he'd get mugged too.

When someone got big rewards in casinos they got noticed by group of people who maybe insiders or the people watching these kind of people in casinos for robberies so its good to have the money in digital form to save these kind of problems in the future.

While we are playing online we are not getting into these drama so lets decide before going to casino again.

If you gamble online - especially with crypto - on computers not protected well enough, hackers can steal from you too.
If you go to casinos I think that some allow you to deposit your winnings to your bank account. Or you can watch your back, or you can call for some more friends (or hire somebody) to watch your back.

This mean that gambling is not safe at all, in any way so its good to have someone beside us to protect us. And if you are a big time player or won a big amount, its a must to hire a body guard or else you will end like this.

Cant fully agree with the bold statement, safe or not is depending on how you secure yourself no matter gambling in online or offline casino. Indeed aside of the risk of losing money because we lose against the house, there is also a risk outside the casino when we won big. We have to make sure that we are safe enough when we are going out from the casino once we bring too much money.

I don't doubt someone from inside does inform others time to time but if you are working as a taxi driver and willing to rob people than you know who to steal it from. I mean you are basically picking up people from the casinos and if people went into a casino there is two options 1) they made money, 2) they lost money.

I’ve watched the video again and it looks like the taxi driver is innocent. Well who knows right? Because your analysis can be a good reason to investigate the taxi driver. The person involved behind this are professionals and they really plan for this.

Quote from: goaldigger on December 30, 2018, 09:06:05 AM

Ive watched the news before and this is the greatest definition of being safe when it terms of online gambling. Maybe that person was watched althroughout the casino and the crime was planned on that night. Its really disturbing knowing that the persons life worth is only $75K. Lets all look to this article amd maybe this would become a lesson for all of us. Be extra careful even youre going to casino or not.

Luckily he’s safe, and only the money was taken away. We should really learn from this one and make sure you are secured before leaving the casinos. He got lucky in gambling and yet that luck is gone when he step outside the casinos, The message is very clear for me, if you earn an easy money it will gone easily too.

Most cainos allow you to withdraw to your bank so he should of went with that option if available. I'm sure some casino employees were involved and got a cut of the loot.

At least he escaped wit hhis life. The money can be replaced but his life cannot. LIfe is cheap in many places and people will kill over much smaller amounts.

I wonder why he is not rent a security company to guard him to go home. With that money, it's not too expensive, and he can be safe on the road, and I believe he can save his money from the robbery. It's his fault, and it's a good lesson for us to think about our safety, and we can prevent the same thing if we can win much money. I cannot believe that he's underestimating about the safety of his money while he goes home.

I see 3 potential reasons why the guy got robbed and most have already been mentioned here.

1. It was an inside job. Anyone working at the casino could have tipped someone of on the outside that a foreigner has won a lot of money. All they needed to do was follow him and wait for an opportunity to rob him.

2. The thieves had eyes on the inside. This was done by a group of people. One of the thieves saw the person win the money inside the casino and informed his colleagues on the outside.

3. The taxi driver with or without some of his colleagues robbed the guy. He could have talked to him when he entered the taxi and told him that he won a lot of money or just seemed happy and in a good mood. All that the taxi driver had to do was to message the robbers and lead him into a trap.

All scenarios are equally possible.

I think there is an option in a casino to withdraw your winning in check, just not sure, but he should be very careful.

He might not have had a Philippines bank account, and who knows if Korean banks would honor Philippines checks...

He does not need to deposit that check into his account, he can demand from the casino to put a payee into his name and then cash it out in the bank, this way, he can prepare to safely transport the cash.

We don't really know, he could already be a millionaire, and that amount of winning is normal to him.

Both have different excitement it brings to every gambler, and gamblers have its own preference, but what's important is to learn how to safeguard our winnings as we do not win all the time.

I mean you are basically picking up people from the casinos and if people went into a casino there is two options 1) they made money, 2) they lost money.

You can make small chats with them about "how did it went" and if they told you they made money more than likely all that money is in cash because I rarely seen any other method of payment. After that all there is left is to rob that person which is really insane to think about but some people are just ruthless that way I suppose.

In short its quite easy to follow a plan, go to casinos, wait for someone to get out, take them wherever they want, on the road make small talk, if they are foreign and made money just steal it from them. Horrible for someone to actually go out and do but not complicated, simple and quite atrocious to do.

Yes I was aware of that news. Robbers also frequent casino and they look for someone who won big and if yo are not locals, then you are a likely target. One way to prevent that it is to go and check-in the hotels just to be safe and just go home when you think that you are not being followed. What is just a day of relaxing and treating yourself like a King for a day, well at least that's what my fellow gamblers do when they won big.

A huge amount of money was circulating in the gambling field so we definitely be away from all of the bad things going on US yes any field has same difficulties so we need to prevent ourselves more better than all people this will very helpful for the things will not happen again

There are plenty of ways to ensure you don't get robbed - online or offline - and there are plenty of ways to be careless.
So at the end, it's about everybody's preference where to play and how to keep himself (and his wealth) safe.
