Sydney Shorr, a 30-year-old Levittown resident has made Pa. iGaming history. She didn’t win a record e-jackpot. Or enjoy a lucky run of virtual cards. In fact, her distinction was a wholly negative one, reports Gary Rotstein for Penn Bets.

Shorr is the first Pa. resident to be barred from all interactive gambling.

The action resulted from her 2019 scam in which she created multiple accounts on hollywoodcasino.com and collected the $25 in free play offered to entice new players.

She got the personal information require to register from the records of her employer, an ophthalmologist.

The tip-off to state gaming officials came when the iCasino noticed something fishy: 187 players seemed to be accessing Hollywood Casino’s online games from one phone.

Shorr’s.

If that wasn’t enough of a sign of a poorly conceived scam, investigators also unearthed this wrinkle: Of the $4,675 she amassed in complimentary stakes provided to new players, she cashed out exactly none of it.

She never gambled a dime of the house’s money. Nor was able to cash out and spend any winnings it might have produced.

Penn National saw the occurrence as verification that its internal systems were sufficiently robust to catch the fraud. “Our monitoring system worked as planned,” wrote company spokesman Jeff Morris by email.

As for Schorr, given her ban, it’s a safe bet she’s finding another pastime. And job.
