There's a couple of things you should know about: Australians We love a good barbecue. We love having fun in the summer with all our mates that is patriotic members of the Commonwealth. There's one thing we love above everything else. We love our Queen Now not many people know this, but Australians are the biggest gamblers in the world.

Is it a number? So how did the college at? Australia Millions The machines at the Barn show? My favorite way is slot machines. We have 60 times more machines per person than any other thing. We love them so much that we give them cute little names. They're like instead of calling it a poker machine, we call them Pokey The Foggy.

These cute little pokies hypnotize so many gambling addicted Australians and drive them to poverty and suicide. And while they make billions of dollars for the gambling bosses, they also have another superpower. Pokies are one of the main ways that criminals launder their money. You put dirty bills in the machine and you get brand new, clean ones out of it.

You know it's super convenient, both for organized crime that's always looking for ways to clean their money, and our giant, unregulated gambling industry that's always looking to boost their insane profits by letting criminals use their machines. Now, the last time a YouTuber pointed this out, they were criminally prosecuted, threatened with prison, and their house was mysteriously firebombed. A fiery mess. message that's hard.

This was a deliberate attack. It's the second time the property has been firebombed in a week. Surely this is all coincidental. These clubs don't just willingly let criminals launder their money.

So we decided to meet up with friendly Geordies the now homeless YouTuber and test how much money the Aussie casinos will actually let us launder before we get kicked out. So we're here in one of the poorer suburbs of Sydney which coincidentally happens to have one of the most lucrative Pokey clubs. Now there are 743 of these machines in here and we've got ten thousand dollars in this suitcase. So we're going to try to turn this dirty money into clean money using these machines.

But first, yeah, now this is Troy stalls. If anyone knows how to launder money, it's him. He was hired by clubs New South Wales The giant Lobby group for the gambling industry. Now his job was to inspect venues for money laundering and he's seen some pretty wild things in his time.

The worst one I didn't tell you was um so I went to Reeves they got control of boxes like a hard drive for your computer down in the dark. It happens to me everybody good at the casino. Okay dude, if you if you have money money amounts are like a little bit higher than that or even that. Okay and you have like high transactions they would send a floor Guy They'll rush to you and it'll ask for like tax documents.

uh taxpayer number? uh yeah, he's in this room. Summer news summer just been re-tuned and pulsed and ready to go and the duty manager said we'll probably go through 20 or 30 of them tonight in the parkies. No staff have got to clone them up. And what did they just say? Bring me a new chair.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, and they keep Pine But they could climb. They've done their business on the stool. they just keep playing. So now, apart from the Poo chairs, he also discovered that one in five percent of clubs were willingly letting money laundering happen.

But for some reason, his bosses didn't want to hear about it. I'd been rattling on about it for about five years. Um, various emails with managers who swept under the carpet. Why do you think they don't want to stop the money laundering at all? Look, it's it's too much money coming into the industry.

Let's forget that it could be from Child exploitation or prostitution? Let's not worry about any of that. it's about the Mighty Dollar Unfortunately So Troy became a whistleblower and leaked his shocking findings to the public. Now his bosses weren't very happy about this. You know, being in charge of gambling in the most gambling addicted state in the most gambling addicted country, very rich and Powerful these guys have taken down politicians before and Troy quickly realized he pissed off the wrong people.

They decided to punish Troy with a never-ending lawsuit. So far Troy's had to pay nine hundred thousand dollars in legal fees. He sold his house at and during the whole process, he was also diagnosed with terminal cancer, which you know also costs a bit of money. Now along with all this, we've also got the fact that Troy is simultaneously stepping on the toes of organized crime in Australia look like I'm not sure.

Um, that's a really good question. Um I don't mean to talk you out of it now. Yeah, I'm going now. So what we've got here is a terminal cancer patient being brutally punished by one of the most evil and Powerful institutions in the country for daring to do the right thing.

Now look, we don't really care about that kind of stuff, but they crossed the line when they went after a YouTuber for the crime of interviewing Troy on his channel. Now it's personal so we decided to meet up with Friendly Geordies and Troy to test just how easy it is to launder money on these Pokey machines. You know, before they both go to jail. I've got my bag pack ready for jail so it's all good.

If you guys going to jail, no, we'll win it. Well there is. There is a possibility we're gonna confident. Thanks again! Let's go a lot of someone.

Yes, our first stop is Liverpool Catholic Club. Now you'd think if you've got a large group of people walking into a club with fifteen thousand dollars filming themselves committing a crime, it's going to be some kind of high stakes. Adventure But after feeding bills into the machine for 10 minutes, we realized it wasn't much fun at all. Oh, we're gonna be here for ages.

this is. can you please launder the money quicker? Yeah, boring. YouTube Video: It's in the world. I'm like Blitz Well, the money is so fun.

This is not funny because you haven't sold ice early. Yeah, that's true. We should have done the crime first. It made it an interesting video and then done the boring stuff.

Alex Stepped in thinking he had a better strategy to speed things up. Oh, that's a fast system. Oh the technique. Now eventually he got bored too.

Is it amazing how quickly you get them? That sounds boring just chucking in thousands of dollars and just like, come on, hurry up! This is a lot of money. Imagine being Mr Beast and filming his videos? You just oh yeah. I Put a million dollars in a Pokemon Troy Wanted us to put his membership card in so he could collect loyalty points from all the money we're stuffing into this machine. You know, with enough points, you could get some free stuff.

Oh, we could scan the system. get a free toaster. Yeah. I Might get a toaster? Sure.

Yeah, you're just gonna take it. Yeah, in order to combat money laundering, these machines are limited to five thousand dollars. so we thought we'd let Troy put in the final bill. Oh yeah, you put this one in.

Well, you do the honors. Give it a kiss for good luck. Don't just money. There's no limit so it's back to work for us.

We've been doing this for about half an hour and no one has come to stop us. I'm so tiring. Yeah, they're boring and also very low limits. There's no point playing them, just crowding around watching someone just put money in.

There's so we don't blame. They don't care at all. It became pretty obvious that the staff wasn't going to intervene. The only thing that could stop us now is the machine running out of space.

And we did it. the the tray for 50 bills was clogged up. No. Apparently the money launderers usually do a bit of gambling so they can blend in with the gamblers and not blow their cover.

So now it was our turn. Well, I'm terrified to press anything because I've never spent that much money on anything in my life. I'm shaking. Yeah, you should be.

Oh my. God no, Do 10 cents. What are you doing? One cent. Come on.

I Worked hard for this money. Look at this. He's addicted. Until what does that mean? Apparently nothing.

No, no line. Should we take it out? Yeah, this is boring. Chad How much would it feels between the diamonds there? Yeah. Take win.

The card might be outside. all credit. Zero. That was an X What? Wait, What if it's gone? at least we've got video proof that we put all those notes.

This is terrifying. 7500 has just disappeared. I'm just hoping it'll be on our card when we cash out. So we're going to take our car to this machine that lets you cash out into brand new, clean bills without having to interact with any annoying humans who might ask you annoying questions like where'd you get all this money or I didn't even see you gambling.

Another great thing about this machine is that you technically receive gambling prize money, so whatever you get out is completely tax-free Now hopefully our 7.5 K didn't just disappear failed. Zero credit? What? No, No no, No no, No No No No No No No No No No No no no no no no no no no Oh my God. Where's Troy on the phone too? What has he done to us? No, let's go get a person. But what are we going to say? Excuse me.

We were trying to prank your club and you pranked us and we don't like the way that this turned out. I'm freaking out here. Where? Where did our money go? We wanted to ask someone for help, but how do you do that when you're breaking the law? Oh, there's no money on that machine. Yeah, we put that in we put.

Yep. So how do we get the money? Onto this card? Detail: acquaintances of the members card, playing chance or not. or maybe it's on Troy's one. Okay, so you must have been that one.

It must be on the members. so it's on your card now. so to take it out, we need you at the counter. So um, if I was to run fast I got a good day's takings.

Yeah, after that quick scare, the process wasn't too hard. The only issue is the maximum you can take out in cash is five thousand dollars and the rest has to be on a check. And since it was on Troy's card, the check has to be in his name. But we got our money cleaned in the end and we might have lost like 2.5 000 depending on how much we trust this.

Shifty whistleblower all along. But look at this though. look at this clean, clean money. It's all that money you made making child born not true.

edgy man tax free as well. It was surprisingly easy to launder 7.5 000 so we're gonna try again, but raise the stakes. Surely if we launder money in these shirts, the staff are gonna stop us. Maybe it's a launch of money and here we go again.

These men were just standing here for 20 minutes feeding hundred dollar bills into a machine and no one stopped them. Guys, you know how many times like staff walked past and read it? It's just like they don't care. Really. Yeah, the little did the boys know there was a professional laundry compliance officer hot on their Trail Been off the job for three years.

Are you gonna be able to spot them? I Hope so. Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness. Foreign.

Excuse me? You guys look like money launderers to me. How could you tell? I thought it was something I'm so official. It turns out the boys had bigger problems than being pranked by a whistleblower. They had to call an attendant to help them launder money and hope they didn't notice the shirts.

I put my card in. but I Yeah, yeah yeah. Eventually another staff member came to help and another one. Soon enough, the entire Club was here helping these money launderers take an absurd amount of money out of a machine without gambling.

Yep, yeah, sure. Thank! You Against All Odds They let them through. without any question. this unbelievable success was obviously making Alex a bit cocky.

Yeah, it's not going past the amounts that they get like flagged for I'm making a lot of time with my money. it's usually above like 10K what steer it is like. the rules were very clear in North Korea We didn't feel like we're doing anything wrong and just as they mentioned, North Korea The Secret police came in. Yeah, thanks for watching.

Things are going surprisingly well with the Geordies fans working in security until their supervisor realized what was on here. We just found them funny. So the shirts weren't a problem and neither was the money we were actually laundering. it was the camera.

If you want to learn about gambling systems, Apart from that, we're all good. Uh, we're gonna pay you guys out to see cool. Thank you. And just like that, we've laundered another five thousand dollars.

Shout out to the staff here! God They were helpful like just bent over backwards who made us feel as comfortable as possible. I Have to say seven people are around. One poker machine isn't suspicious at all, all with cameras. so if we weren't making a YouTube video, we could potentially launder.

it's legal to film a machine because he knows because there's like a there's a there's a billion Securities Yeah, but maybe the shirts weren't as obvious as we thought. If we wanted to start telling attention to the crimes we were committing, we'd have to look like an actual Criminal Where do I even put the cash? there's no pockets. We also decided to change venues as we got a tip off from one of the workers that the managers realized Jordy's and Troy were filming a prank in their Club So we moved to Bankstown Sports Club. now at this point Troy Pulled the classic terminal cancer patient trick where they're too tired and have to go to sleep I Would assume it is because of their their own security like you filming like the rounds, the camera placement, what they do like, you can do it all.

Today this costume was immediately much dodgier. A couple of civilians spotted me as soon as what happened. Nancy It's a patient trick where they're too tired and have to go to sleep in the middle of the day so we're on our own now. Whatever.

Now this costume was immediately much dodgier. A couple of civilians spotted me as soon as I got in the elevator. Y What makes you say though? putting it as a completely normal blade address? es here. Oh yeah, fine.

I think you should record us on the menu here. Drink: Oh yeah, actually I deserve one philosophy. Or maybe hopefully the Vietnamese iced coffee I ordered will calm my nerves because not only was this costume much more obvious, but it also didn't have anywhere to hide our money. It's hard not having Pockets you've got to hold a lot of cash in you.

but unlike the civilians, the staff didn't care at all. Nothing like freedom. I Guess there was nothing suspicious about what I was doing. So much more money.

Not suspicious though. No, this is just normal behavior at the casino. We decided not to waste any time by trying to gamble and fit in because I Obviously this place is much easier to launder money and you didn't even need to put in a cart. Well, that was very easy.

Got five thousand dollars in my hand so do I need to order another one through here. Thank you I Had a long day. Thanks so much! would you guys like a drink? Yeah yeah! I know I'm meant to be laundering money here, but the amenities and the freebies are just so good. We were getting distracted by how much the staff pampered us.

How much easier is this place than than? um yeah, this one's got the money laundering tick of approval. Shout out to Bank Stand! Sports Club Money Wander is Paradise It was about time to put down our free drinks and go and finish laundering our money. Stop ordering me I Want my money I Feel like everyone ordering drinks doesn't understand how scary it is holding five thousand dollars of flims and paper I Want to cash this in because this side, well, it's red. Yeah, it was time to get the cash out but you can never be too careful.

you know I had to be real Sly I I didn't want to get caught? What? What do you remember? It's crazy getting all these clean bills without doing any gambling at all. Looks like clean. They weren't suspicious at all. it was honestly getting a bit boring.

All I could really do to pass the time was make awkward small tool. Do you reckon this shirt's a bit too small for me? Oh dude, there's a little bit. Maybe I should roll the sleeves up. Yeah, that's a good look.

Okay dude. Congratulations! Oh thank you. Yeah! I'm a lucky man and we did it. We laundered another.

5K Congratulations Okay chap, a little extra. um yo this is X x on this video. Anyone knows that boy I don't know. he's just so sorry.

anyone knows that boy I don't know. he's just so sorry.
