5348 baht for four 50$ bills??? 

 

That's an exchange rate of less than 27 baht to the dollar!

 

However, if she actually exchanged three and not four bills (as reported) that would make the exchange rate 35.65, which sounds correct.

During the initial police interrogation, Evgeniia maintained that she was unaware of the counterfeit nature of the banknotes, claiming that her father had given her sixty 50-dollar bills for her trip to Phuket.

Thank you daddy... if you can believe that one...

What an idiot. She should have used them on the way to Phuket. Use them in an area that you aren't going to be in for any amount of time 

Yeah, but then there is the possibility that she was not aware of the fake bills.

If she exchanged 200 dollars

She should have got 7193 baht 

 

show she exchanged four of these bills at a currency exchange counter in front of a shopping centre in Kamala on July 23rd, receiving 5,348 baht in return without attracting any

I know that very well. If you bother to read, my post was related to why she did not change them in another place.
