There are many ways to “get rich quick”. Numerous companies have promised customers that if you follow their guidelines or buy their goods you will be guaranteed to get rich quick. Although many of these methods don’t work, at least they are legal ways to get rich. Unfortunately many individuals prefer to use illegal methods of getting rich quick. There are many illegal ways of getting rich. (23) Printing illegal money has been a method many criminals have chosen to get rich quick.
The printing of illegal money is one of the oldest crimes in history. It was a serous problem during the 19th century when banks issued their own money, at the time of the Civil War, it was estimated that one-third of all money in circulation was illegal, (24) the introduction of U.S. dollars in 1863 was expected to solve the problem of illegal money. However, the dollar bills were soon copied so extensively that it became necessary for the government to take action. On July 5, 1865, the United States Secret Service was established to stop people printing illegal money.
Although illegal printing of money is less of a problem now than it was one hundred years ago, it is still an issue that is being addressed worldwide.
Advanced design, copying and publishing technology are making it easier to produce high-quality illegal money as well as commercial checks, traveler’s checks and money orders. (25) A new generation of illegal money printing came when computerized color copiers became capable of producing highquality copies. This allowed documents to be changed, and false documents to be produced without having the original one. These copiers can easily produce documents that look genuine.
As technology continues to improve, so does the ability of criminals to fool the police as well as the general public. (23) This has become a worldwide method for criminals to get rich quick.
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.
23. What has become a worldwide method for criminals to get rich quick?
24. What did the United States first do to combat counterfeiting?
25. What allows for the creation of false documents without the original one?
