The PM said that people should be careful in the money they accept, reported INN. Severe penalties exist on the staute books for offences relating to the forgery of currency including life imprisonment under Article 240.

Sure, let counterfeiters print millions of bogus money and only face 20k-40k in fines, i'm sure those guys are trembling with fear in their fake Prada boots by now... 6 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ArcticFox Posted August 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 28, 2021 Talk about a "warning" that is completely devoid of details. The obvious question would be - "What notes are being counterfeited and what are the signs that the notes are not real." Instead - a message that has no substance other than being in the category of "another another scary government issued message." 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RubbaJohnny Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 (edited) Fake news, fake romance, fake bum detectors I'm sure some will use these for special surfaces, sorry services . Will this mean they check my 20 baht 3 extra times at the ? Luckily my late model LTD wife got a Ferrari for her birthday , she was a little surprised at the size of the box for the 1:12 scale model.I promised her the insurance , tyres and maintenance would be cheaper.
