Fake 10oz Gold Bar Found in Manhattan 9-2012
Funny how this happened at this time because a few days ago I was talking to a friend and he asked... "how do you know you are buying real gold or silver?" My reply to him was to buy it from a reputable mint! There are many reputable mints out there and since they make the bars, you know what you are getting. This fake bar in the video was from a reputable company in NY and they even got scammed! You can't get screwed buying from the mint.

Joe Han that joke was “gold”!
i brought a tungsten, i opened and it was filled with gold. im speechless
Wouldent it be funny if you bought a gold bar with an intent on holowing it out and selling the core just to find that it was already done.

shave a little more off around the inside and pack some tungsten in, we can still break even on this, there's plenty left that they missed!
Secret Service should go bust the Federal Reserve for printing money out of thin air...

please explain what value gold has? what makes it so "valuable" one could argue that the value of anything is in the perception of the one who values it.

I suppose it's because we got no "way" of creating gold, implying the quantity of gold on the planet is finite. It could be an other "rare" metal, but i suppose it's mainly because of our history (human).

Shane Delahunty gold doesn't have a value dumbass
Who the hell told you that they hollow it out and poured tungsten into it? You know because they couldn't possibly just have a die to just stamp the numbers back on to the fake bars then just give it a thin plate of gold around it
OK, so did the so called "reputable merchant" refund the man's money? If not, then I would say reputable isn't the correct word.
Bet they would be happier if it was chocolate instead of the tungsten

Don't let this distract you from the fact that Hector is going to be running three Honda Civics with Spoon engines. And on top of that, he just went into Harry's and ordered three T66 turbos with NOS... and a Motec system and exhaust.

The design of the gold bars should have say 5 holes drilled through to make this impossible. Sure you could make a tungsten core with that shape but good luck taking the core out of the original and wrapping what's left onto the tungsten.
I was waiting for this exact idea to pop up somewhere. Not surprised in the least.
That's why you test it at the back of the store by drilling a very small hole in it
Next time someone tries to sell him a gold bar, he’s gonna have his power drill ready to check if it’s legit
Bring a magnet, the next time you go to buy gold.

Tungsten is not magnetic so it won't do you any good.
Damn that happened to me with a aluminum i cracked it open and there was pepsi in it wtf
Funny how some businesses on money from air grow exponentially while other businesses on air are considered a crime.
Man i feel you.... I bought 27 gold coins for around $560,000 and then i found out they were chocolate.. :(
I can't even begin to assess the level of FURY that I would be feeling if this happened to me!! Nothing pisses me off more than being robbed, scammed, or otherwise ripped off... and with something THIS serious?! My head would probably explode...
Old video but did you get your money?
I wonder how many of the gold bars in state reserves/private collections are fake?
they dont cut them open silly, They melt it down and make their own!
Tungsten doesn't have a similar weight to gold! it has a similar density!
seems like the only safe thing to do for the venders is to melt and reforge the gold bars. That sounds tedious but it beats being scammed out of a few thousand.
Serves him right.
Did anyone else think the thumbnail looked like chocolate getting unwrapped?
how ironic, Shifty Jews Being Greedy with gold.
You could even sell gold that's been drilled. Then electro plate the tungsten center, and then it looked drilled but still gold.
I LOVE IT i always thought of doing this exact thing hollow out gold items and fill it with material whose average density would equal that of gold (like an alloy)
It is currently under investigation... Which means, we got your paperwork and we filed it away somewhere where no one will ever look at it again.
Turns out that 3,000 Dollar Counterfit only costs 20 dollars.
This is why I only buy government gold coins, they're harder to counterfeit, and they do, but you can tell better in a coin.
This kind of problem doesn't exist with Bitcoin. One of gold's weakness is indeed, that it exists in the physical world where certain constraints apply, eg. space.
They should have done this with platinum bars, filling them with tungsten. The difference in color might not stick out.
why do people buy a bar of gold ....whats the point - what do they do with it ?
straight finessed
That dude was like, yeah... the FBI is looking into it 😉 Good luck seeing a dime of your money back.
BRILLIANT!
Not only in Manhattan in Europa and Asien.... Found in Chains and Barons
THE PAIN 💔on his face 😢
Plot twist he actually did it so he could cash out on insurance.
This is why you should never buy gold off of eBay.
I got that fire, hit me up during the apocalypse.
thats why it is still safer to buy bitcoins, each coin is as solid as real, no counterfeting
One more reason to stick to 1 oz bars.
I think the reporter is wrong. I think the gold bar is not hollowed out but the tungsten bar is first electroplated with gold then put in a rubber mold and gold is poured in. Go to castaldo.com and check youtube for castaldo videos.
That small piece of gold cost 18k?
at least they didn't get a gold covered chocolate bar...
🙏 Thanks for informative video 🙏
So that's what they did with the gold in Fork Knox? Gotcha!
It's Sad, the world is soo corrupt
So now the best way to deal with fakery is to drill into every bar you are buying to ensure genuine product.
Use Ultrasonic Thickness Meter to verify your caliper measurements. If more than 60% difference, THEN you may want to drill it. UTM is cheap.
Brilliant.
Almost a century ago tungsten were valueble strategic material.
reporter should have said tungsten has almost the same density as gold.
Just use a magnet. Gold will not be attracted to a magnet while tungsten will.
Funny on how no other fake bars popped up
Its why you never go for more than 1oz bars.. its way too thin to fill.
Only solution wld be to bring up the price of tungsten to equal the price of gold.
Annnnd you went on the news?! i would have left the rest of the bars alone and resold them
Damn gold finger is back
This is why you buy gold stocks and not physical gold. Don’t ever play yourself 😎
Fake it till you make it.If there is anyone who can make those,get in touch.
that guy probably watched a few youtube videos and made that bar
so is Germany's gold being illegally held by the u.s. treasury

I don't know about you guys but this is fucking brilliant
What's the point of owning a gold bar? Isn't that the whole point of currency
Here are the facts of this the segment missed. 1. Ibrahim Fadl is a gold dealer. He is from Egypt and very likely not a jew as he has a cross hanging in his office. 2. He bought the gold from a dealer from Russia. He has not disclosed he Russian gold dealer's name.
heads will roll for that shit.someone has big balls.
How much treasery gold is like this :D
yes but why is this recommended for me
That's why you do the bite test...
Yes...yes... Do not buy gold, g-guys. Let the demand sink, let the price sink. We will buy this bad, bad gold you don't want. (rubs hands)
He own hundreds of gold bars and where suppose to feel bad that one is fake? And still work 3k wtf
Reported to secret service ?? How thy find thm
why do you think all those commercials for buying gold are on tv'''scams
The guy who bought the bar is named Ibrahim Fadl. Fadl is an Arabic name common in Egypt. He is not a jew and is probably a coptic christian judging by the cross in his office.
that's a bummer
that's why i prefer gold pressed latinum
Buy from the mint direct and you're good to gold!
reminds me of those nasty ass chocolate coins wrapped in gold foil.
THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD IS CROOKED NOW
Pretty sneaky, sis
Every µg of gold on earth is sold 200 times over.
So you're saying buy and sell tungsten? :) Though in all seriousness, that's a rough one, but as long as you're dealing with reputable sellers even if they sell you fake it should be easy to recover the loss by throwing the law at them.
