Former Compliance Director Sues Resorts World | Las Vegas News

A former compliance director at Resorts World Las Vegas is suing the casino, claiming he was fired for reporting a high-stakes financial scheme involving international gamblers — dubbed the “Argentina Scheme” — that allegedly involved unverified funds and credit fraud. Despite Resorts World’s recent $10.5 million anti-money laundering fine and new leadership including Jennifer Roberts as chief compliance officer, Banks says executives dismissed suspicious behavior as “cultural,” then swiftly banned 28 patrons and sought to recover $12 million — all within days of his report. He was terminated just 27 days after submitting his findings, with management allegedly citing the “Argentina Scheme” as the reason. Banks also alleges his report to the Nevada Gaming Control Board was altered before submission and has filed complaints with federal agencies, seeking reinstatement, back pay, and damages for wrongful termination and retaliation.
