With an unusually large number of 50 euro bills in the car, a man in Dortmund made himself suspicious.
The 40-year-old could not conclusively explain why he had 3,000 euros in this denomination in the car, the police said on Friday evening.
The money was therefore secured.
The aim of the main mission was to prevent the illegal trafficking in drugs and other substances and to confiscate money acquired through criminal offenses.
Dortmund - The 40-year-old with the many euro bills also only pretended to be his brother and did not have a driver's license.
In a kiosk, police officers found sexual enhancers being used, a stolen smartphone and 150 packs of drugs from several men.
The parties involved are now being investigated.
The day before, officials arrested a 49-year-old who was traveling with 98 bags of marijuana and 2120 euros in cash.
