A Nevada man is facing charges after allegedly taking part in the theft scam of a casino for over $1 million.
On June 17, someone called the Circa Las Vegas Resort and Casino in downtown Las Vegas at approximately 4:30 AM and said that they were the owner of the establishment. The caller said he needed $320,000 from the casino vault to make a payment for fire safety equipment.
The cage supervisor was told to deposit the funds into a Bitcoin ATM located at a local Terrible’s gas station. A while later, she was instructed to meet someone she was told was a Circa lawyer at an auto parts store and give them $350,000.
