Popular Post snoop1130 Posted October 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 11, 2022 Thai police seized counterfeit US banknotes, with a face value of about 34 million baht, and arrested two suspects in Nonthaburi yesterday (Monday), in a joint operation carried out by police from the Technology Crime Suppression Division (TCSD) and the US secret service attached to the US Embassy in Bangkok. The fake US dollars had been offered for sale online to anyone. TCSD police contacted the seller to purchase a substantial amount of the counterfeit US currency, to be delivered in a rendezvous at a condominium in Muang Thong Thani yesterday. TCSD police, disguised as motorcycle taxi drivers, were posted at and near the condominium, to wait for the person who was to deliver the fake money to the buyer.

Thomas KH Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Hmmmm I see some bahts with red fasteners there but not mentioned in the inventory. Probably because those were the only genuine notes and someone had other intentions other than keeping them for evidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocked farang Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 These guys may be the reason that the last time I went to a Kasikorn bank in Chiang Mai to exchange a $100 note, the Teller made a photocopy of the note, my passport, made me sign the copies as well. This plus the knowledge they have about these notes, my God if you know them well, it's impossible to be coned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Korea is a primary source of counterfeit US$100 bill. They have always used SE Asian countries to launder their fake bills. Notice that these notes are all the old style of discontinued banknotes and not the new "blue" banknotes printed in multicolored inks, metallic inks, and incorporating a wide hologram strip. North Korea is unable to counterfeit those. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
