I worked on the supply side to the slot machine industry. IGT/Aristocrat
IGT had a test guy who modified the code and burned a prom, installed it in a machine. wrote down the serial number. Tracked the machine down on the casino floor. .. and played the correct sequence of coins he programmed in to hit the small Jackpot.
Then he and his playing partner got greedy, did the same thing to a $100k machine in Atlantic City, he and his buddy showed up, won. But his mistake the Hotel room was in his name, that;s how they got caught.
This was early-mid 90's After that all vendors had to change the code to prevent it.
once I was offered a Job at Autotote, newark Del; at the time. I turned it down, pay was way too low. Then I got into Horse racing a few years later the IT guys tried to take down the breeders cup Pk6 changing the ticket. remember that?
Dude if I took that Job I would have never been caught.
