Some notgeld issues were definitely 'swindle' issues - they were not what they appeared to be. This great looking example is from Suederbrarup and was issued by the trickster 'Heinrich Appel':

Today, these notgeld pieces are still highly collected. Some of his pieces are signed 'Loppa' - a made up name close to his real name but reversed!

This piece was issued by Carl H. Lange, a 'Briefmarken- u Notgeld- Groshandler'
Different-Types-Of-'Bodies-/-Authorities-/-Businesses,-That-Issued-Notgeld.

He was making money from buying and selling notgeld, so why not create his own piece!
