It seems so.
AFAIK it doesn't look like it should be moderated. Marsupilami1000 could have marked the URL on the bill. gerd only entered 10 bills, all on 26/7/2002, the day he joined.
Does someone remember part of the serial number ? I can unmoderate it !

This is the bill in question:

It seems a valid hit to me. What do you guys think?
I vote for to unmoderate it. It should be our 'real' triple hit!

Maybe Odranmartin and Marsupilami1000 are real users? At least Marsupilami1000 has a serious looking webpage. Has Gerd just guessed the serial number or what has happened? I think there was in some other thread something about Gerd. Maybe moderators can tell more.
Maybe serious users get a real hit. Then a fake user (or a gang) find out the serial number by simply guessing. The goal is to get a multiple hit. How difficult it is to guess the hidden numbers (xxx) of a serial? Does the changing colours in advanced entry form help fakers? (I hope you understand what I mean.)

I'm pretty sure that first two entries are purely genuine (I said it, it's my favourite hit

), but I have some suspects on third entry, by Gerd.
Okay, this may sound a bit paranoid, but Gerd entered only 10 notes: maybe he tried to guess the sn in order to hit this bill.

This is was the post you were posting about I think

It’s indeed the same gerd (there’s only one in Koblenz)
Guessing a serial right away has a probability of about 1/111.
