I remember being up in manchester a few years ago, and a friends father had about 2,000 euro worth in 50 notes. well actually they wouldnt have been that considering they were fake more like 1 euro, but anyhow they looked really authentic the line was very light so it only got more visible as you put it up to the light.
anyhow the only real difference was the feel like, they were too crisp, because they are made from paper(obviouslly) they never sorta crinkled or that unlike real money.
Smaller notes draw less attention and are easier to pass in a busy shop, bar or night club.Quote:

Most retailers don't have proper note-checkers and even if word got around that fake 5 and 10s were about they still wouldn't take time to check each one.
The fake €10 aren't very good. Anyone who handles a lot of notes regularly (ie works in a shop etc) would notice!
Never came across a fake €5!
Or maybe you did and just didn't notice !! :eek: :pQuote:

i have to say i got a fake 20 euro once, but it was given from a niteclub in mayo or roscommon, anyhow, i used the same 20 euro in another nite club, there is no way i was getting stung. anyhow the best way is nightclubs and a 20 or 50 where they dont have enough time to check is the safest option.
just dont use more than 2.
Some guy was arrested in the Los Angeles on forgery charges. Apparantley, along with a pile of other forged notes, he had some $1billion notes.
i remember seeing on a show, dumbest criminals, actually it should have been named americas criminals, where he had changed a $20 to a $1.. fcekin dope.
Word has it that OB is very interested in this racket - anyone no anybody in high places :eek: :D
