webfact Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Fake 100 baht bills found in Lampang LAMPANG, 14 April 2017 (NNT) - Vendors and people in Lampang province have been told to look out for fake 100-baht bills after the counterfeit money was found at Kao Chao Market. More than 200 vendors at the market have been told by a market public relations officer, Paiboon Aodkeng, to examine 100-baht banknotes every time they receive one. The counterfeit notes have the following serial number 0E 4647409 printed on one side. Anchalee Luangbutr, a florist, said she did not realize she had received a fake bill until she noticed the same serial number on another 100-baht bill. By then, the customer who gave it to her had already gone. Achalee also described that the fake bill was thinner than usual and the watermarks were unclear. Lampang provincial police are now identifying the suspect(s) captured by surveillance cameras. -- nnt 2017-04-14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those red pieces of paper are BANK NOTES, as the story goes on to say. The BILLS come later when you've had a spend-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that. I recall a few posts where people were complaining about their mail to Thailand being opened and of course any money or even money orders were found missing. So the guy started mailing fake US bills to Thailand. NONE of the mails go to their destination! The sender of course hoped the mail theifs got busted trying to pass the fake notes.

scottiejohn Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Can anyone explain what posts 6 & 7 above are on about. Who is 'Boris', what is a 'UM', what has a 'nomad' got to do with this thread? If there are fake bills going about then it is a serious subject as none of us wish to be arrested by the BIB for passing dud notes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a combo of typos and no punctuation. #6: "Fake UM that maybe as the rest of the pace is just the same from last observations" Translation: Fake! Ummm, that may be as the rest of the place is just the same, from (my) last observations. #7: Refers to UK's Boris Johnson in El Gordo's Avatar.
