Jeff Turner counterfeited over $1 million in US currency. He forged the 1996-series $100 bill and later the 2013 "blue note." He was indicted on federal conspiracy charges in 2019 and cooperated with the Secret Service, eventually serving 10 months in prison. According to Turner, the Secret Service said the bills he was manufacturing were the highest quality they'd seen in over 25 years.
Turner speaks to Insider about the materials and processes required to make fake money. He talks through how to spot a fake bank note. He also discusses cartel forgeries from Colombia and Peru, and the "supernotes" the US has accused North Korea of making. Nowadays, Turner works as a printer in Knoxville, Tennessee. He speaks about spotting fakes and frauds on his RU-vid channel.

I'm not surprised that his bills were higher quality than the cartel ones.

Yeah exactly my thought. He wasn't even making $2m a year assuming he had worked every single day of that year. The cartels will move that much in drugs in a matter of a week or two. Sure i imagine much of his process could have been turned into an assembly line of people to do, but its just not really scalable for an illegal activity to require so much manpower to create.

I’ve read the longest running counterfeiter in the US was just a guy in NYC. He’d make basic amounts of money (no $100s; too suspicious). He’d make, back in the day, like singles ($1). And just use it to buy a subway ticket, and get the change. Do that a couple times a day; there’s a crowd, everyone’s busy: the perfect situation. If this guy had done $20s nobody would’ve blinked.

That's why the government left him off. He did absolutely nothing compared to the bigger criminals out there -- the government. He actually had to work hard to make fake counterfeit money. The government just adds a few zeros electronically, and play the shell game with bonds and suddenly, the money exists out of thin air.

Forever ago, I was at a gas station and paid with cash. The lady said it was counterfeit and she pulled out a stack of "counterfeit bills" and slapped it on the stack. I told her to give it back, but she said she couldn't do that. I was pissed. I asked her how, and she said she couldn't see something you are supposed to see. And I showed her she didn't know what she was talking about as I could see it. And I told her to give it back or call the police. So an officer came out and said it was real. And so she gave it back, but the whole ordeal took like an hour. So she had been confiscating people's money saying it was counterfeit. Though her explanation is someone took a counterfeit bill, and the owner said they'd be fired if they took another counterfeit bill.

@@natashaonis Let's get down to reality here! It didn't matter if he revealed his illegal operation to someone else or not because, he would've been caught anyway. A criminal NEVER have a low risk of getting caught. There is no such thing! When a person is breaking the law, they are definitely going to get caught sooner or later. It's just a matter of time. Law enforcement have the resources to investigate and apprehend even the most intelligent, underground criminals whether if it's white or blue-collar crimes. How do you think Frank Bourassa (the world biggest counterfeiter) was caught? Even the criminal themselves doesn't know the person(s) who they're working with may be undercover FBI or DEA agents. So therefore, nobody can outsmart the law because, they are always two steps ahead of you. That's why crime (in general) doesn't pay because, everything that a criminal has accumulated illegally in their bank accounts, and possessions they have purchased with suspected drug or counterfeit money is seized, confiscated by law enforcement, and the Government and they will lose everything, in addition to incarceration. They are left with nothing but the clothes on their back.

We then sent it off to the secret service which I always thought was weird. Why would the secret service be in charge of counterfeit currency instead of the federal reserve who issues the currency?

Who do you think taught him how to read and do all this? -the gov. And the gov already supports everyone who doesnt make a certain amount of money, especially if you got kids The only thing the gov didnt do in this case is just hand him over a million dollars to support his drug use, which is what you''re suggesting the gov should have done I dont know about you, but I aint gonna be paying taxes so that the gov can support someones drug habit. I aint working just so someone else can stay high on crack

It isn't the governments job to take care of people. I'm not sure where this mindset even came from. The federal government being involved in your life, in any form, is not a good thing, they are not your friend. That's a very slippery slope. Once you have a society dependent upon their government, they have total authority. See China or North Korea for reference. We as a society need to realize we're purposely being divided, distracted, & pushed to depend on government assistance more & more. Once we realize that, we can ignore all the division & distraction tactics and come together as one people to stomp out the corruption & greed so that we can all have much, much easier lives and so many people won't need to depend on the government in the first place. Its all one big ponzi scheme and no one sees it. I understand people all around the world need help but America shouldn't be the welfare office of the world. We the people need the money ourselves we pay in taxes and yet its being spent on everyone except us, which takes us back to coming together as one people to end the corruption & greed in DC & Wallstreet. We the people hold the power but they've done such a good job at dividing & distracting us that we've seemingly forgotten that & normalized depending on the government for assistance when if we would come together and end their BS once and for all then the majority of folks wouldn't even need that assistance in the first place. Corruption & greed are what have drove the prices so high here and yet instead of the people coming together to put our collective foot down and take back what's ours we just continue arguing amongst eachother and pointing fingers at eachother. It's absolute madness that we've gotten to this point and people still don't see it.

actually, the problem was his drug addiction. He was cashing thousands of dollars worth a day he said! Had he not had the drug problem, he could have stuck with just 1-2 bills a day at a range of stores in a range of areas & it never would have raised any red flags. 2 per day, 5 days per week is $1000 a week income, from 10 minutes work (plus the time in going to the stores, which is still far less than with your proposal). There was also that tv show with the mothers who found a laundering method of buying & returning items, if he did that, he could buy items worth a few hundred & get the money back in real cash, which would mean only a couple of purchases a week for the same amount. Even go on a holiday & buy a couple of laptops & iphones from a few different stores, then return them to different stores in the same chain, within the same area & then be gone & don't return to that area for another 5 years or so & no-one's going to have enough details to be onto him

They did it so carefully that, before they give out the fake bills, these cashiers would look at the wallet of the customer when they pull out their cash, and see if they have a some more 20s in there, just to make it hard for people to know where the fakes are coming from.

Some time ago the engineering company I worked for got an assignment from a bank to detect counterfit money. The samples we got had all the fancy safety features, but the poor quality of the watermarks was a trivial indicator which bill was real and which was fake. Even if you'd never seen a real bill from that currency, the watermark would tell you whether it was fake or not. Watermarks in dollar bills suffer from a bad design as they have little contrast (compared to other currencies). Watermarks are - a.f.a.I.k. - impossible to fake, as it literally requires you to make the paper from scratch and these processes are kind of technical and kept secret. Maybe, if you throw a lot of money and time against it, you can solve it, but it is extremely unlikely you can do this 'out if your garage'.

Back in the 1980's I worked at Burger King and worked all positions, including the cash registers. One of the things that we saw a lot of was that people would tape the corners off of different $20 dollar bills onto a $1 dollar bill. They would use four (4) $20's and cut one corner off of each one. Then, they'd tape all four onto a single $1. It looked hokey, but during the lunch rush, the cashiers would miss them. We'd see one to two per week. The people would buy the cheapest thing on the menu, so they'd get a large amount of change back. I never got burned, but plenty of other cashiers did. We saw that and a lot of quick-change artists that would try changing up what they gave you to pay mid transaction. Those people were usually more successful at getting a lot more back than what they paid. I never got burned on that either.

And of course in tourist areas a lot of businesses will accept U.S. Dollars. In Asia they pay less for older bills, and older style $50 bills no one accepts. I guess the super counterfeiter in Thailand that got busted well over ten years ago had made a lot of these and they're still in circulation. So if you travel with U.S. cash get your bank to give you only the newest bills.

Yep, also do not fold or exchange the bill with stain or marking. The currency exchangers in the SEA are notoriously strict.

You bank probably has a service for ordering foreign currency super close to the true mid-market exchange rate. Its best to grab cash before you leave your home country.

@@thesmallterror Banks in my country have all closed their services for travel cash. The largest banks don't even deal in cash at all anymore. Nothing to do with the world's situtation, just what we call "progress".

Yeah, I just get my foreign currency from an ATM now. I have a good bank that uses the actual exchange rate and reimburses me for the ATM fee. I keep a couple hundred Euro and UK Pounds at home so I have some cash when I get there, but I get the rest from local ATMs.

They don't mention it here but counterfeiting isn't always just about the money. The reason we have a secret service for the treasury department is because if you get enough counterfeit money into circulation you can have an impact on an economy. That mattered a lot more when the US was a smaller nation but it was a way a foreign power could destabilize the country so it's really a matter of national security. I think some years back China actually attempted to do that on a smaller scale because we got FLOODED with chinese counterfeits for a while.

Basically inflation. That's what the fed and every other central bank does, create money, in order to transfer resources from the public to the institutions that create the new money.
