This :flag-nl: multiple hit with a :note-500: seems to be quite suspicious. Though it is moderated, I wonder whether it is a public serial or the users know each other, as hits with a :note-500: don't seem to be very common at all.

It's a game. If you find this note on the same day you will get EUR 1000,00 for this note from the newspaper. So many people will buy it.

precision: there is NO HIT in the series, just that user treasure (https://fr.eurobilltracker.com/profile/?user=167883" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) seems to start again to extrapolate a few numbers in a serie of ordinary bills:

It is possible that he took a second account and does not use the first one anymore. He can not have a second hit, because he entered only 1 note with his first account.

Well, if there are two users, one of them is :flag-nl: brianharoldmay88 and the other one is :flag-nl: brianharoldmay1988, then in my opinion it's more than coincidental that we have to do with the same person, or one, that knows the data of the "hit"-note.

Another pair of trackers, who seem suspicoius to me:
:flag-nl: Quickboys
:flag-nl: Olskie bolskie
They do have a lot of hits together, so it might be that they are using the same sources to get their notes. Otherwise, I could not understand why two users entered about 9.000 notes each, but having 39 hits with each other. If you recall, that one of them lives in Leiden, but there isn't a high number of hits with the Dutch No. 4 (and user, who also lives in Leiden), :flag-nl: Elmo, then that's a bit strange to me.

Both are from Katwijk, a (relatively) small town, so I don't see a problem with Quickboys and Olskie bolskie. Okay, there are some hits which are dubious (such as this one), but when such dubious hits are moderated, some unproblematic normal hits between users in a small town remain.

Sorry, why did I think one of them lives in Leiden :oops: ??? Can't explain it anymore.... . Probably, as there were many Leiden :arrow: Katwijk hits. Of course, I didn't want to say, that they are generally faking; but some hits, like the one you mentioned, seemed suspicious. As I have never been in Katwijk, I don't know how likely it is, to have hits with another user, who also entered about 9.000 notes.

As I recall from the early days of EBT, Olskie Bolskie and Quickboys are brothers, that explains their mutual hits..
