Coin-rolling related scams are a collection of scams involving coin wrappers (rolls of coins). The scammer will roll coins of lesser value or slugs of no value, or less than the correct number of coins in a roll, then exchange them at a bank or retail outlet for cash. To prevent these problems, many banks will require people turning in coins to have an account, and will debit the customer's account in the event of a shorted roll. Some banks also have machines to count coins. ==Penny and dime scam== The con will wrap pennies into a dime-roll wrapper and try to exchange it, this is known as "penny rolling" in slang. Sometimes the con will also exchange other legitimate rolls of coins at the same time to allow himself to make the excuse that he made a mistake should the roll be discovered. Another trick is to put dimes on the (visible) ends of the roll, and have hidden pennies on the inside. This scam can also be done using nickels and quarters. Another tactic is to only roll a few of the wrong coins per roll. This allows the con artist to give plausible deniability in the event the scam is discovered, to say it was an honest mistake. Often a combination of various rolls of coins are exchanged at the same time to allow room for confusion. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Coin rolling scams」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
