It involved forged postage stamps that were applied to telegraph forms and it was only detected over 25 years later. ==Description of the fraud== In 1870 the telegraph systems of the United Kingdom were nationalised and run by the Post Office. The development of the telegraph systems had been of great benefit to the Stock Exchange as stock prices could be quickly communicated. If those working at the Stock Exchange wanted to send a telegram they would write their message on a telegram form and take it with payment of one shilling or more to a clerk who would then give them a 1 shilling green postage stamp to apply to it, if necessary with other stamps to make up the correct fee which depended on the number of words. The clerk then cancelled the stamp with a dated postmark to indicate that the appropriate payment had been made. A fraudulent clerk supplied forged stamps for the forms in order to steal the expensive one shilling fees without depleting the stock of genuine stamps which were subject to audit. The fraud was successful because the forged stamps were only used on certain days and the stamps were convincing forgeries that were not retained by the customers who only handled them briefly. After the telegrams had been sent the forms were filed before later being put in a bag for disposal. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stock Exchange forgery 1872–73」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
