Slot machine scam, North Carolina men charged with computer crimes
The Brief Prosecutors say three men are accused of using a jamming device on slot machines in a West Allis Bar. They have all been charged with felony computer crimes. Groups of people, mainly from North Carolina, have been using jamming devices at both Milwaukee County and suburban bars. WEST ALLIS, Wis. - Slot machines are supposed to be games of chance, but prosecutors accuse several people of trying to game the system across counties. "When the machine 'went down' after they broke it, and found out I was coming, they left," said Jake Sibler, owner of the Network Bar. Silber and his family have been in the bar business for generations. So…he's seen a lot.

Somebody else tried to come in and print their own receipt. But that did not work out," Sibler added. "This is the first time this has actually happened to me." What we know Last Wednesday night, April 9, prosecutors say three men and a woman came into the bar. Two of the men went to machines, while the third and the woman started a fight. As it was going on, one of the men said he wanted to cash out, while a second man said the machine froze. "I told her to keep them there, pay them. $100 is worth catching these guys, if this is the crew that's been doing this," said Sibler. "This is a first. I don't think I've seen this charge before. But I've been educated today," said Milwaukee County Circuit Court Commissioner Barry Phillips. Three men - all from North Carolina - are charged with felony computer crimes, accused of using or being part of a scheme to use devices to add credits to slot machines and then steal fake winnings. West Allis police say jamming devices were found in Montare Goodman's rental vehicle. "It's akin to a smoking gun," added Phillips. West Allis police say groups of people from out of state, primarily North Carolina, have been using jamming devices at both Milwaukee County and suburban bars. Earlier in April, prosecutors in Waukesha County say two men, Erik Nelson and Lamar McCaskill, stole thousands of dollars from at least three Muskego locations, including a bowling alley and two bars.

Canadian dollar touches one-month high on tariff reprieve bets
Summary TORONTO, March 26 (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar strengthened to a one-month high against its U.S. counterpart on Wednesday before paring some gains, as oil prices rose and investors weighed whether expected new U.S. tariffs would be as far-reaching as previously feared. The loonie was trading 0.1% higher at 1.4260 per U.S. dollar, or 70.13 U.S. cents, after moving above its 100-day moving average for the first time since October. The currency touched its strongest intraday level since February 24 at 1.4236. "Potential dialing back of the tariff rhetoric seems to be helping Canada," said Erik Nelson, a macro strategist at Wells Fargo Securities in London. U.S. President Donald Trump is readying an announcement on auto levies as soon as Wednesday, Bloomberg News reported. On Monday, Trump said automobile tariffs are coming soon even as he indicated that not all of his threatened levies would be imposed on April 2 and some countries may get breaks. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said if the ruling Liberals won an April 28 election, his government would create a C$2 billion ($1.40 billion) fund to boost the auto sector's competitiveness. Canada is a major exporter of autos and other goods, such as oil, to the United States. The price of oil rose 1.2% to $69.84 a barrel, supported by government data showing U.S. crude oil and fuel inventories fell last week. Canadian wholesale trade most likely rose 0.4% in February from January, largely driven by higher sales in the machinery, equipment and supplies subsector, a preliminary estimate showed. Canadian bond yields moved higher across the curve, tracking moves in U.S. Treasuries. The 10-year was up 2 basis points at 3.100%, after earlier touching its highest level since February 24 at 3.142%.
