The likelihood of fraud or counterfeiting by speculators or governments outside of Iraq is slim to none, IMO. Our dinar will be verified. This problem is with the currency inside of the country.

It's a big problem, but they state the quality of the counterfeit notes is poor and is not of major concern. Can't find that article... perhaps some one can?

Hey Blue, I was thinking the same thing regarding the quality of the fake notes. The security features on those notes are world class. I can't imagine many have the capabilities to manufacture passable fakes. Do you think the problem may be with the ability for those making legit transactions with these note to identify the fakes? The quality may be poor, but the detection ability may be poor as well. I think there was an article about counterfeiters sticking fake notes in stacks of real ones.

I think there was an article about counterfeiters sticking fake notes in stacks of real ones. If I remember correctly, one the those news articles stated that the 10K notes were being used in the street. The Iraqis are not knowledgeable enough to know what is counterfeit or not. That is where much of the in country problem lies. They're identified when they finally make it to the banks. This is yet another powerful reason why the CBI wants to create new currency and get it distributed. You're right, the current banknotes are pretty much tamper proof. Shabibi has stated the new currency will be as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
