He then explains to the victim that it was the only sample of the chemical he/they had, and that the victim needs to buy more to clean the notes. He may at this stage introduce a second contact who can supposedly supply the chemicals in the quantities required – At a price. What he does not explain is that the trunk box full of black money is only cut-up black craft paper, not money at all.
