The General Directorate Combating Organized Crime (GDCOC) has reduce a criminal group that cheated casinos and gaming halls across the Bulgarian country, taking out large amounts of money by hacking their gaming machines.
The criminal group composed by four individuals had a modus operandi through a planned and particularly sophisticated scheme for obtaining remote access to gaming machines at casinos and halls.
They were able to manipulate the outcome of slot machine games and generate large profits in the process.
The four of them had a specific role, the first had to simulate playing on slot machines, while the other accessed the machines remotely to meddle with the games’ outcome. The third member of the organized crime group had to secure the remote access and thus control the gaming devices.
The fourth person was responsible for crafting the different and various electronic devices that manipulated remotely the gaming machines’ software.
The criminal band will be judged under the Bulgarian law and its out of the game for now…
