Counterfeiting Gang Caught

Police have smashed a massive counterfeiting operation in the UK, run from a home in London.

More than £5 million worth of cash had been forged in £20- and €50-notes. The cash, produced in several locations throughout the UK, could be rolled out at up to £1600 per hour, and was almost flawless.

Police arrested eleven men in connection to the scam. Three have been acquitted, but among the charged were a 29-year-old, a 46-year-old, and a 52-year-old. But wait! There's more!

Police also charged men aged 58, 59, 60, and 69. But... wait for it - the operation's headquarters and main printing area was in the home of Dennis Hancox, aged 83.

Money can't buy youth, boys.
