“An elderly man has been found apparently trying to smuggle nearly €250,000 strapped to his genitals. He and his wife were stopped during a routine check on the border near Trier, Germany, which is close to the boundary with Luxembourg. His wife also had €8,000 strapped in her clothing. Customs officers based in Koblenz discovered four bundles of cash worth €50,000 each and another of €44,900 strapped to the man’s genitalia, according to The Local. European laws state that anyone carrying more than €10,000 must declare the money and they now face a large fine.”
