Участник:A large number of High Roller housewives made more than CA$14 million in bets and 87% of these deals were questionable.
The situation is pretty much the same for High Roller students who spent more than CA$2.3 million in cash in the River Rock VIP betting room. This raised the important and disturbing question of the true source of this wealth.
An internal review examining the background of many of River Rock Casino's high-roll players aims to determine whether a player's job can bring about a stable income. This is why VIP gamblers don't turn a blind eye to dropping millions in one bet. According to the document, the most common job among high-roll players is real estate. He reportedly used more than $1 million in cash deposited at Rock Casino in 2015.
The second most frequent job among casino VIP customers was 'business owner'. High-rolls in the construction industry followed. But what was most surprising was that there were 75 housewives and students among the casino VIP customers. In 2015, the total amount of cash transactions spent to purchase cash chips at River Rock Casino was 420,000 won.
Among casino customers, "student" was another most common job. Thirty-six students spent CA$2.3 million on betting. A student reportedly used C$819,000 in cash to buy a chip. Speaking of the revelations, Attorney General David Evey commented that housewives and students are a group of people without a particular source of income. Therefore, the source of the money they deposited in casinos gave ample reason to use "money" to large-scale gamblers.
Canada's crackdown to reduce illegal cash inflows Last fall, Mr. Evey promised to strengthen anti-money laundering measures. The move came shortly after the newly elected B.C. government released a scandal report exposing alleged money laundering at River Rock casinos. As a result, Mr Evey appointed Peter German, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, to conduct an independent review of the Lower Mainland Casino's anti-money laundering policy. The Germans have already made the first recommendation, but it will be submitted in March 2018.
