ATM in Sihanoukville Giving Out False Bank Notes ?

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Not sure what the back story is here, but this was posted on the Sihanoukville forum social media page tonight. The ATM is at Otres Beach 2, so it's probably a booth attached to some other business. Does anyone have an update on this ?

IIRC, there are 2 ABA atms, one beside the Mart on the corner and one on the dirt road outside one of the restaurants.

Happens now and then. Ten years ago the ANZ ATMs on riverside were giving out fake 100s. The staff from the supplier from National Bank sometimes get greedy and switch out notes. They normally get caught fairly quickly.

I still have a fake 100 around here someplace. Pretty good fake too, but the security strip does not glow the proper red/pink but black and splotchy.

I used to wave a bag of weed under my dog's nose then put him out of the room and hide it; he'd always find it pretty quick.

Finally we discover where all the Chinese are headed. Sinville was a cover..they're actually headed hundreds of miles away, to Otres.
