have there been some notes entered by users Kaarstermichel, KARR and zoz which have been detected as fake entries?

Or what exactly shall these "hits" on Eurotracer tell us?

As I can remember, it is not allowed on EBT to enter known fake numbers just in order to mark them as fake.
Doing exactly this on ET is called a strategy?

MM enjoy exotic hits (remember Cyprus??) :| :| :|
Judging from the time of the hit and schmunzel006's last note entered time, I think the hit was his/her first note. 8O
I brought this note and about 270 other ones from San Marino back to Germany, left a few of them in Frankfurt and about 250 notes in various places in Erfurt. After the notes left my hands I obviously have no control or knowledge of where those notes circulate, so I'm afraid I can't explain how this hit happened besides stating that schmunzel006 has an amazing beginner's luck.
As for presidente's statement, I think we all enjoy exotic hits. Obviously in hindsight going to Helmbrechts during the return home from Cyprus wasn't the best idea and you could make a good case that the Cyprus-Helmbrechts hits should be moderated, but I don't see Helmbrechts as the problem here. The fact that most places in the Eurozone aren't more like Helmbrechts is unfortunate (in my dream world every town and city in the Eurozone is at least as active as Helmbrechts in terms of notes tracked per capita: About 10,5 notes per person. That would give Germany about 860 Million notes tracked and Italy about 630 Million notes tracked. :lol: ). The issue here is that I travelled with a lot of notes from one place to another, which doesn't fit many definitions of "natural movement of money". My question here is what you suggest restricting or forbidding and how that would affect other tracking activities like dothunting or going to an EBT meeting.
I'm looking forward to reading your suggestion, not in the least because I'm flying on Wednesday to Mallorca and returning on 2 May to the German EBT meeting in Düsseldorf (in a region with a very likable hit ratio).

It seems quite strange locations for and user just entering 303 notes so far.... :?
Another possibility -- there are many flights (oddly enough) from Zurich to Cape Verde. Perhaps he gathered the three Cape Verdean bills during Easter vacation last week, and is now spending some time in Switzerland en route back to Finland. I notice from his profile that Zurich is "greener" than the other dots... But maybe I'm just too trusting :?

An user currently active in the USA (ikbenwalter) has found a remarkable number of sequential bills in a city of 89,000 people in Oregon of all places. And almost all of the bills of them are "P" bills from the Netherlands -- where the user is from...or am I reading too much into this? :roll:

Fair enough.

For the record, I once got a series of new bills in Libreville (Gabon), but I bought those off a visitor from Italy just to have some cash, since I was about to move to Austria. So it is possible -- just wanted to put the information out there!

Well, the information was valuable !

But, once checked, it does not need more attention.

it is very common for us to have a lot of brand new foreign currency. Sterling and USD are a very common case.

Who says A must also say B! (German saying) :P

Was it the True Cleaning Girls Commando who entered the notes at ET? Are the entries pointing to users Kaarstermichel, KARR and zoz or are they now only victims of a misconception of the secret stragety?
