A Swedish man has been arrested in the tourist resort of Hua Hin. He tried to change fake dollar and when the police search his hotel room they found more fake money.
The Swede said he was innocent and said he change the money before traveling to Thailand but I do not get why he change to dollar and not the local currency.
There are many fake 1000 THB notes in Thailand right now and people are extra careful with the money. If you find a fake 1000 THB you can get it exchanged in the bank.
