Europe Now Has Its Own "Most Wanted Fugitives" Web Page (eumostwanted.eu)

Posted by timothy on from the needs-to-merge-with-tumblr dept.

New submitter ffkom writes: European police organization Europol was probably jealous of the fame and popularity of the FBI's Most Wanted site, so they finally launched their own, European version. And if you want to know what a peaceful place Europe is, just consider this: You don't even have to kill anyone to get on the current "Most Wanted Fugitives" list. A mere fraud worth 12€ is currently enough to get you into this "Hall of questionable fame."

    ISO 31 specifically states that both "," and "." are valid separators.

    If one cannot infer what the number is in this particular case, they have no business writing anything at all. Confusing 12€ with 12 523€ is a new level of stupidity.
