 It shouldn't be allowed! - zippy
One we stumbled across was to do with fruit machines.

Many are electronic now.

A criminal gang threatened the family of a programmer of one manufacturer to code the machine to pay out on a certain pressing of the buttons - think of the "SIMON" computer game from the 80s.

They then went around the pubs emptying the machines without their usual practice of smashing them up.

The abnormal pay out statistics were adjusted as well so it took a little time to notice that the machines were paying out too much.
