Sal Piacente, a casino consultant with a long-standing reputation for exposing fraudulent practices in the gambling industry, took to the airwaves on ‘Fox & Friends’ to shed light on the cutting-edge technology being used to cheat in casinos. His appearance followed a series of recent reports about sophisticated cheating methods that have increasingly become a concern for casinos across the United States. Piacente, who has previously worked with major gaming operators to enhance their security measures, detailed how modern cheaters are using everything from microchip-enabled devices to laser-based systems to manipulate outcomes in games of chance.
During the segment, Piacente emphasized that the rise of these technologies has outpaced the ability of casinos to respond effectively. He warned that unless the industry invests in more advanced surveillance and anti-fraud technologies, the problem is likely to worsen. His comments come amid a broader debate about how to balance the rights of players with the need to protect the integrity of gambling operations. While some industry experts argue that these incidents are relatively rare, Piacente’s insights provide a stark reminder of the constant threat to the casino business model.
