1. Counterfeiting Money by The Jolly Roger

Before reading this article, it would be a very good idea to get a book on photo offset

printing, for this is the method used in counterfeiting US currency. If you are familiar

with this method of printing, counterfeiting should be a simple task for you.

Genuine currency is made by a process called "gravure", which involves etching a metal

block. Since etching a metal block is impossible to do by hand, photo offset printing comes

into the process.

Photo offset printing starts by making negatives of the currency with a camera, and

putting the negatives on a piece of masking material (usually orange in color). The stripped

negatives, commonly called "flats", are then exposed to a lithographic plate with an arc

light plate maker. The burned plates are then developed with the proper developing

chemical. One at a time, these plates are wrapped around the plate cylinder of the press.

The press to use should be an 11 by 14 offset, such as the AB Dick 360. Make 2 negatives

of the portrait side of the bill, and 1 of the back side. After developing them and letting

them dry, take them to a light table. Using opaque on one of the portrait sides, touch out

all the green, which is the seal and the serial numbers. The back side does not require any

retouching, because it is all

one color. Now, make sure all of the negatives are registered (lined up correctly) on the

flats. By the way, every time you need another serial number, shoot 1 negative of the

portrait side, cut out the serial number, and remove the old serial number from the flat

replacing it with the new one.

Now you have all 3 flats, and each represents a different color: black, and 2 shades of

green (the two shades of green are created by mixing inks). Now you are ready to burn the

plates. Take a lithographic plate and etch three marks on it. These marks must be 2 and

9/16 inches apart, starting on one of the short edges. Do the same thing to 2 more plates.

Then, take 1 of the flats and place it on the plate, exactly lining the short edge up with

the edge of the plate. Burn it, move it up to the next mark, and cover up the exposed area

you have already burned. Burn that, and do the same thing 2 more times, moving the flat up

one more mark. Do the same process with the other 2 flats (each on a separate plate).

Develop all three plates. You should now have 4 images on each plate with an equal space

between each bill.

The paper you will need will not match exactly, but it will do for most situations. The paper

to use should have a 25% rag content. By the way, Disaperf computer paper (invisible

perforation) does the job well. Take the paper and load it into the press. Be sure to set

the air, buckle, and paper thickness right. Start with the black plate (the plate without

the serial numbers). Wrap it around the cylinder and load black ink in. Make sure you run

more than you need because there will be a lot of rejects. Then, while that is printing, mix

the inks for the serial numbers and the back side. You will need to add some white and

maybe yellow to the serial number ink. You also need to add black to the back side.

Experiment until you get it right. Now, clean the press and print the other side. You will

now have a bill with no green seal or serial numbers. Print a few with one serial number,

make another and repeat. Keep doing this until you have as many different numbers as you

want. Then cut the bills to the exact size with a paper cutter. You should have printed a

large amount of money by now, but there is still one problem; the paper is pure white. To

dye it, mix the following in a pan: 2 cups of hot water, 4 tea bags, and about 16 to 20

drops of green food coloring (experiment with this). Dip one of the bills in and compare it

to a genuine US bill. Make the necessary adjustments, and dye all the bills. Also, it is a

good idea to make them look used. For example, wrinkle them, rub coffee grinds on them,

etc.

As before mentioned, unless you are familiar with photo offset printing, most of the

information in this article will be fairly hard to understand. Along with getting a book on

photo offset printing, try to see the movie "To Live and Die in LA". It is about a

counterfeiter, and the producer does a pretty good job of showing how to counterfeit. A

good book on the subject is "The Poor Man's James Bond".

If all of this seems too complicated to you, there is one other method available for

counterfeiting: The Canon color laser copier. The Canon can replicate ANYTHING in

vibrant color, including US currency. But, once again, the main problem in counterfeiting is

the paper used. So, experiment, and good luck!

2. Credit Card Fraud by The Jolly Roger

For most of you out there, money is hard to come by. Until now:

With the recent advent of plastic money (credit cards), it is easy to use someone else's

credit card to order the items you have always desired in life. The stakes are high, but

the payoff is worth it.

Step One: Getting the credit card information

First off, you must obtain the crucial item: someone's credit card number. The best way to

get credit card numbers is to take the blue carbons used in a credit card transaction at

your local department store. These can usually be found in the garbage can next to the

register, or for the more daring, in the garbage dumpster behind the store. But, due to the

large amount of credit card fraud, many stores have opted to use a carbonless transaction
