假币不仅破坏国家金融秩序、侵害群众经济利益，也会扰乱社会稳定。近年来随着我国公安经侦部门的严厉打击，市面上的假币出现率持续降低。5月13日，江西公安部门就公布了一起印制假币案。
The Economic Investigation Brigade of the Fuzhou public security bureau in Jiangxi province received multiple reports from local vendors in Sep 2023 about counterfeit money being used in rural markets. With five cases reported within a week (far exceeding the previous monthly average of one to two cases), a special task force was immediately formed to investigate.
The investigation faced initial challenges due to the lack of surveillance cameras in the rural markets where the crimes occurred. A breakthrough came when a vendor provided video footage capturing a female suspect's entire transaction process. According to police, the suspect first handed genuine currency to elderly vendors for verification, and then claimed to have smaller change to retrieve the real bills, finally substituting them with counterfeit notes to trick victims into giving back cash as "change".
Further investigation revealed that over 1,000 people across seven counties, including Linchuan and Dongxiang, had fallen victim to the scheme. Through a multi-department collaboration, police identified a couple, called He and Xu, both with prior convictions for using counterfeit money. A raid on their residence uncovered 15 counterfeit bills, printing equipment, ink, and materials for producing fake currency, alongside small-denomination counterfeit notes (5 to 50 yuan) totaling over 200,000 yuan.
目前，江西公安经侦部门已会同银行等金融机构采用“冠字号追踪”固定证据的方式对假币进行追溯，目前该批假币尚未发现流出江西的证据，警方也在持续跟进案件后续相关情况。
The suspects reportedly drove to rural markets at dawn, disguising themselves as regular customers to spend counterfeit money during transactions. They used approximately 300 to 3,000 yuan in fake bills daily, avoiding stockpiling to evade detection. Authorities confirmed that no counterfeit money from this case has been found outside Jiangxi, and the investigation remains ongoing.
