Arrested with 70,000 fake euros when buying cryptocurrencies in a tourist apartment in Atocha: the sale ended in a brawl with injuries and the windows of a portal broken. Counterfeiting currency and stamped bills is a serious crime that the Penal Code punishes with sentences of eight to 12 years in prison and a fine of up to 10 times the apparent value of the counterfeit currency.

The sale ended last Wednesday with two detainees by the Municipal Police after paying for this digital currency with 70,.000 euros in counterfeit bills.
