Beware! Thefts from Pulltab Machines Increasing.

A number of clubs have recently reported pulltab thefts from their pulltab machines occuring in their clubrooms.

Apparently, two men have been spotted entering private clubs (mostly VFWs). Once there, they eventually head over to the pulltab machines, turn their backs to block the view, and using some sort of an electronic device, trick the bill acceptors into dispensing pulltabs. They are described as two big men driving a jeep with Ohio VFW cards.

Perhaps it's the state of the economy, but we've also heard of some robbery attempts at bingos recently. This would be a good time for every private club and every bingo to review your security policy (if you have one), and keep your eyes open for anyone acting strangely.
