Hello everybody.
The topic is known, but i want to raise awareness for it once again.
The user araneus keeps entering small extrapolated series of banknotes, producing fake hits repeatedly - because he didnt have to face any consequences by now.
I attached several screenshots of fake hits i noticed - one of the hits today even was with myself - with a note i entered and deposited in Germany, only four days ago.
I really hope that his account gets deleted soon, so the database of our hobby is a little bit cleaner again.
Thank you!

I saw this Hit, which was submitted by user gerrit83 in Westendorp, the Netherlands, but the note says the bill was found in France:
https://nl.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=258125808

This user often submits bills under the place name Westendorp, but in the subject line are most of the time other place names were it was found. Can this user be contacted about this? He doesn't seem to really understand how it works.

It's not suspicious, just stupid (in my humble opinion). I have tried (and failed) to bring his attention to his erroneous place names; see for example these hits:
https://en.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=236564175
https://en.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=227251917
and
https://en.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=209644330 (where he actually changed the place name after my comment, but just not to an existing place (rather the island and municipality))

It is about time that some firmer measures are used with this user. At least moderate the hit and I think deleting a note like that would be a next step.
As Crazy Bob said: he has been told time and time again how it is supposed to work.

Apparently a new tracker jerry sas has yet again arisen from tricksters-plentiful :flag-fr: Roisel, one that looks very suspicious with very great amount of notes entered and already 5 hits (one of them a triple)... They registered in 2026-07-10 around the time the infamous codi . got expelled from the roster.

Please consider also that his first hit was with olivier h, yet another user from Roisel, yet registered only three days prior to jerry sas own registration.

https://nl.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=165918207
https://nl.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=165918208 (*)

As you can see, both bills are of the type :note-10: Pxxxx2268xxx, only the second one was entered by me before.

Please moderate and investigate.
Just a friendly reminder about this HHMP460 user. (s)he was previously subject of a deletion due to hits into consecutive series. The 'hit' quoted above is still in my moderated hit list, and a closer look at newer entries reveals that this is also a hit into (mini)series:
https://nl.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=255433013 (*)

See the following note:
https://nl.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=255433014
which has the same format Yxxxx9095xxx

Not the biggest fake user, but just one that has been bothering me for quite some time (due to the moderated hit).
