what a bright lad!

presenting two bills with the same serial number in the same batch at the same time for exchange

it could even form part of his defense

he could claim if he really was guilty of trafficking in counterfeit currency why would he be so stupid as to do that?

I wonder what the chances of being caught if he had simply exchanged one note at a time using different exchange booths? :whistling:

in amongst 5 good bills , he would not have had a problem i guess unless it was a very poor copy

if he was tumbled he could have said that he was duped too when he got them

he would have had to make a better job of hiding the others though at his room and not confide in a Thai

they are hopeless at keeping secrets........

Are you serious that Thais are hopeless at keeping secrets....?

Perhaps, it might not be true in all cases though, right?

Some Thai ladies kept your secrets, did they not, sir? :o

I always tell all my secrets to my lovely daughter.... and every time she laughs so heartily and gives me a big smile too.... as a reinforcer each time....

Just like to reassure me.... I know.... I understand you dad.

And she is only 1.5 yr old.... :jap:
