Besides all the generic DM-Scam shit happening, talking about market level:

1) I can sell shitty printed notes with a glued on security strip from Alibaba & maybe even pen-test proof it. And probably would win a few disputes till ban since the product is "as offered". Most likely can extend that period b4 ban with a few alt buys.

2) Actors buying that shit are on the lower end of the IQ/age scale. And unknowingly open themselves up to charges that are far heavier than bulk importing synthetic drugs in most western countries.

3) The vendors of those half-assed notes are retards and/or scammers in the best case. Worst case they are literally paid informants operating a honeypot for their juicy narc-money.

4) Talking about retards:

4~ years ago there was a UK guy on Dread that actually even sent out a few real pounds, combined that with a few shills and made a nice exit.

After that there was /u/XXXXTentacion with his various alts (just search for the term "alsow" on Dread) that did not get banned even when writing an extensive summary to Paris with proof of Alts. Hug did the deed later though because him shilling himself with Alts got out of hand.

Guy came back as /u/MrXXXT, even officially stated that he was the old account. And Paris gave him the /d/FakeMoney Sub back after the fact.

Bonuspoints for that he roughly disappeared 1,5years ago for a year at the same that a .NL based fake money vendor was arrested.


Welcome to my TedX Talk

PS:

There is no reason not to just word-ban "counterfeit/fixe* match*/note*/etc". And that is only a small retarded piece of this shitshow, do not get me started about the whole fraud/carding stuff.
