Iraqi Dinar investment.... DON'T DO IT!
Just wanted to put the warning out, if you get someone trying to talk you into investing in the "new" Iraqi Dinar, do not listen. 9 times out of 10 it will be a scam, and there is a consumer alert FROM THE GOVERNMENT specifically about this:

I have friends with thousands of dollars tied up into the dinar, hoping for some big payout "Oh, as soon as the dinar hits we're going to..."

Well, I don't see any problem with buying like maybe $10 worth... having traveled to various countries, I really enjoy bringing back samples of everyone's currency, and I do have what I think is a $10 dinari note that I brought back from a trip to baghdad (as well as yen from Japan, and some dollars from the Grand Caymans). But unless you really know what you're doing, investing large amounts of money in foreign currency is really risky.

Before the war one 25,000 dinar was worth 75,000 us dollars. I bought 10 of the new 25,000 for 100.00 off Ebay awhile back. See what happens I guess.

As with any investment or speculation, only shell out what you're willing to lose....
Alot of my buddies that came back from Iraq (military and contractors) have quite a bit. |

Man o' man, don't tell me that the good ol' Dinar ain't what she used to be. Say it ain't so!!!
It's always been the Rock of Gibraltar whenever the Dollar or gold were shaky, there was the solid Dinar. |

Uhhhh so I guess I'm going to have to empty my safe deposit box and cash my retirement in Iraq! Is it still worth something if sadam's face is on the bill?
Atleast I sent those thousands of dollars to south Africa to expidite my long lost relative fortune! They left us everything! As soon as those guys that contacted me in my email get that wire transfer I'll be rich! Who's laughing now! |
