6: The Ring of Counterfeiters

  • Summary

  • The story of one of the most serious cases of counterfeit money production ever seen in Denmark. The counterfeit American currency was worth about 200 million kroner - roughly 24 million pounds. A small gang of three people, with the help of a fourth partner working at a distance, managed to print a huge amount of dollars that looked so similar to the original notes that even American special agents were impressed by the quality. This case also involved international drug trafficking, a Danish sailing boat transporting millions, and a Swedish paper mill that delivered the paper to the gang, which was used to print counterfeit dollars to buy heroin in Thailand for importing back to Europe.

    Cold Blood: Nordic True Crime is a series based on a hit Danish podcast, exploring startling true crimes from Scandinavia - crimes that made headlines and gripped the region. 

    Research and text by Martin Hylander. Produced by Roboto for Podimo. New episodes are published every Thursday.
