Gambling News · 11h ago

Macau's Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau again rejected viral claims circulating on mainland Chinese social media that casinos use rigged electronic card shoes to manipulate baccarat outcomes, calling the allegations false and noting that all gaming equipment undergoes strict regulatory testing. The regulator also flagged a secondary danger: scammers are reportedly approaching players who believe they lost money to rigged shoes, offering to recover funds through unofficial channels. The bureau urged the public to ignore such messages and report any gaming disputes only through official channels.
