Ukrainians warned of the many fakes in the country

Not all detectors can spot a fake.

In Ukraine there were fake dollars, high quality, who are not always able to recognize even special devices. The leadership of the national Bank sent banks a corresponding telegram, which describes the tricks resorted to by counterfeiters this time. It is that dealers, apparently, having special equipment, could print on banknotes of series 2006A method, to simulate watermarks and special fibers that are on these bills. Also, counterfeiters have managed to forge one of the most complex security features of banknotes — they have ensured that the numbers on the bill can change the hue depending on the viewing angle. However, this bill figures to change the hue from green to dark purple, and fake — on dark green. Now banks are recommended to set the detectors so that they were able to identify more high-quality fakes. In addition, the bankers recommended to carry out explanatory work among cashiers.

The fact that in Ukraine the urgent issue of counterfeit money, confirmed by the statistics of the Prosecutor General. According to the Agency, increased the number of cases where organized groups forged money and other securities. According to the statistics of the GPU during the first 9 months of this year, security forces have recorded 21 fact fakes groups (although for the last year of such cases was only 2). Suspicions of this year, announced the 78 defendants, some of them have been caught in such crimes before. But in General the facts of counterfeiting money and other securities, for example, excise stamps for alcohol across the country identified is less than in the same period last year — against last year’s 822 1023.

“As for counterfeit currency, the most popular denomination of counterfeiters is the banknote in 100 dollars”, — told us in a press-service of the national Bank. From the Ukrainian banknotes, according to bankers, businessmen prefer to counterfeit large denomination of 200 and 500 UAH.

In the Zaporozhye region police exposed a group of three people, which stamped such bills. As reported by the press service of the Zaporizhzhya police, one of the “printers” tried to drown the leaves with printed money in the tub. A search revealed 80 sheets with fake bills. If the fault of suspects will prove in court, to them threatens till 7 years of prison.

As found “Today” in Ukraine annually take out more than 100 sentences of those who sells fake money. However, it is not always about the counterfeiters. Often counterfeit bills sell people who themselves are a victim of fraud, is received for your goods or services counterfeit money, but did not want to be at a loss, and decided to get rid of them. One such case occurred in the town of Bibrka of Lviv region. A local resident sold gas equipment for the car for $ 200. After a while I discovered that two notes for $ 100 (the same series, which is now stated in the NBU) fake. The man decided to exchange the fake hryvnia, but in exchange, was exposed. About the incident the police know, in the end, the case went to trial and the guy got 4 years probation.

“If you, for example, the exchange issued a fake — call the police — said the lawyer Ivan Lieberman. In the presence of cops, you will be able to request the exchange of the receipt of this money and at the same time protect themselves from prosecution”.
