If you can get out with the Chips and not be caught?
They are just as good as cash and useing a good fence?
You could get 50% face value pretty easily.
So you stoled a Million, you get 500 thousand.
Not bad.
Those Chips are covered by Insurance so the owner gets a Million back.
Then the Chips are easied back into the system.
Not a bad scam when you really think about it.
