THE MULTINATIONAL FACE OF COUNTERFEITING TODAY

An article on Gulfnews.com pictures six of the eight people arrested
for trying to exchange $800,600 in counterfeit money.  It's a diverse
group, including Africans, Europeans, Asians and Arabs.

"The Dubai Police Department of Combating Economic Crimes received a
tip-off about an Asian man who possessed counterfeit money of $100 in
addition to Indian rupees and was looking for a buyer to exchange
the counterfeit money with original money.

"Investigations revealed there were two men, a Gulf national and an
Arab, who had obtained counterfeit currency from the Asian man. The
Asian had also asked two other Asians to look for buyers of
counterfeit money."

"Investigations also revealed that two African men possessed $300,000
in counterfeit cash for sale for Dh600,000."
