Counterfeit LE

Post new topic

Queen Cleopatra

All,

News reports indicate that up to 2m LE worth of fake 50, 100, and 200LE notes are circulating in Egypt.  Please alert your financial staff to check any notes they handle.  Some forgeries are crude but many are “high quality” imitations.  Things to inspect include paper, color, watermarks, and serial numbers.

Thanks
