The reporter saw that the color of these “inferior” counterfeit money is much lighter than that of real money. It seems that real money has been washed with water. There is no gold thread or Watermark. It feels very different from that of real money, the edge of some banknotes even has inclined white space. “It is printed out with a thicker white paper.” The police said.
Lin Yibo told the reporter that at 08:45 A.M. the day before yesterday, he bought vegetables and passed the gate of Baima River Park near the famous Lake luxury community. Suddenly, a man riding an electric car stopped him and said that he was his son’s friend, he wanted to pay back his son 20 yuan and asked Lin Yibo if he had any money to find. “I only have my daughter, but I thought he was talking about my grandson.” Lin Yibo said that he usually took more cash when he went out, so he took it out of his pocket. When the man saw the appearance, he claimed that he was going to dinner soon and needed to pack a red envelope. He proposed to Lin Yibo the suggestion of “exchanging 50 yuan for 100 yuan. Lin Yibo was embarrassed to refuse, so he agreed. Unexpectedly, after the man took the money, he put a stack of 50 yuan into Lin Yibo’s hands and left by bike.
“When I counted the money, I found one missing. When I looked up, I saw that he had gone far by bike. I felt something was wrong. Only then did I find that the money was fake.” Lin Yibo said that he was standing under the monitoring camera of the ticket office of the White Horse River Park when changing money.
