I was looking at the list of cities in the Province of Antwerp :flag-be: , there was this strange profile: someone entered the serial number as city.
Strangely, this profile was assigned as "correct profile" and put in the municipality of Kasterlee.

In that list, I've seen more mistakes, but I'll post them in the other topic.
But what's the normal procedure here? Deletion of the note, or merging into the city profile of Kasterlee ?

The normal procedure is in such a case to replace the serialnummer with the city name. I have done this now. Can you please delete now the link in your posting to the city profile with the serialnumber!

Please, its never a good idea to link a city profile or a note report, where someone entered a serialnumber in the fields for the comment or city. Better make a general support request or inform a moderator, so we can solve this problem without making the serialnumber public.

if note has no hologram it is probably a counterfeit one , and if it is fake there might be many bills with very same number :(

It could be, that I am wrong, but somehow I have the feeling that :flag-nl: johnson1966 is not exactly playing how he should.

The user got 3 hits in Spain today, all three with the Netherlands. Nice to see them, but what makes them suspicous for me is the following:
Cervera del Río Alhama 2 notes entered by the user :arrow: 1 hit
San milan de la cogolla 2 notes entered :arrow: 1 hit
Lardero 2 notes entered :arrow: 1 hit

For me, there are (at least) two possibilities:
a) He received them in the Netherlands but changed the location, knowing that it's wrong.
b) He received them in the Netherlands took them to Spain and entred them there.

As far as I know, there aren't are lot of Dutch bundles of :note-5: delivered to Spain. And even then you're very lucky to have three hits out of six notes.

perhaps it's normal, perhaps it's suspicious, i really don't know.
a very important number of hits between masalla10 : http://en.eurobilltracker.com/profile/?user=176376" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
and 2llsll : http://en.eurobilltracker.com/profile/?user=174990" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; , both users from :flag-es: .
It appears that masalla10 has 124 hits, 2llsll has 145 hits,...... but they have 114 hits together... 8O
Please investigate.
And this surprising hit ratio has already been mentioned by azalareal, groucho, LArdennais, vermeer, dserrano5...

If it makes them happy. If they are not members of this forum (or/and this topic); they do not know we are talking about them. Suspicious maybe not; interesting hits not always. But to be honest; i do not care.

Same user (entering twice):

users: hoffie and hofief.

The second user started entering at the same day as the first one entered the last note, so I think this user created a new name to enter boomerang-hits (which isn't meant to be done).
At least, the 3 hits between each other should be moderated.

I'm not sure, but perhaps those 4 hits (made the same day, hour, minut, second, between JARDO™ ( Euro-Collector aka "Jarči" ) and Tigrik ) , could be "collector's hits", no ?
4x :note-10: Europe, Y/Y - T/T - X/X - S/S .
They give to Tigrik a wonderful hit ratio : 18 notes for each hit.
Please investigate.
