Voucher Question

[Cleanupindustry]

As they say FINDERS KEEPERS. Losers weepers    I’ve left machine and said shit my voucher. And it was gone. And I’ve found vouchers that are mine. Finders keepers as your parents tought you as a child!

   I have found them I have lost them. I have never turned one in, none of mine were ever turned in. If they know who the person is and that person returns they will be flagged. They will ask you did you find it and cash it. Then they will say you need to pay this person or they will proceed. Main thing have the cash on you to pay back. If they don't approach you about don't worry about it. My local casino I have seen security approach people about vouchers found. If you don't have the cash they will call police have you arrested. You pay it back no big deal.

Its definitely illegal, same as vouchers found at casinos or money left in machines. But as someone else said, I have dropped or left tickets in the machines by accident and never had one returned to me. So do with that what you will.

   In the state of Illinois it is 100% illegal to keep it. Getting caught is pretty easy, Cameras are everywhere.  Easy to get reimbursed also. They void the voucher and give you the balance. I have lost done and I have found some. Just do the right thing and you don’t have to look over your shoulder.

How is it different from the stoopers that picked tickets off the floor and ran them through the machines to see if any of them were live?

One is intentional, premeditated abandonment. The other is not. I have zero idea how this scenario plays out, but I can see it being theft, and without question being banned from the facility.
