that it would be so nice to print our own money,
very few of us take it to the next step, but this lady did, the unnamed
woman reportedly walked into the car dealership in the German city of
Kaiserslautern on Monday wanting to buy a used 2013 Audi A3. At first,
everything went smoothly. She inspected the car, took it for a test drive, but
when the time came to pay the €15,000 price, dealership staff were stunned to receive
a number of bundles of €50 and €100 bills that looked more like Monopoly money than actual
currency. One employee told German media that he literally asked the woman if
she wanted to play Monopoly or buy a car, but after seeing that she was
serious, he called the police, when
searching the 20-year-old’s home in the nearby city of Pirmasens, police found
a regular ink jet printer loaded with uncut fake bills printed on regular
sheets of paper, as well as €13,000 worth of fake euros, so what could possibly go wrong? apparently, the bills
were so poorly made that anyone would have spotted that they were fake, according
to Germany’s Federal Criminal Police (BKA), counterfeiting money is punishable
by at least one year in prison,
“We have
experienced plenty of scam attempts before, but so far no one has been this
brash,” a car dealership employee told NOZ. “I just asked her incredulously if she wanted to
play Monopoly.” photograph Pirmasens Police Department, I am only surprised that she did not print a get out of jail free card!
