What is the coffee paper trick?
1 comments

It must be attached such it tears when opened, tamper-evident- similar techniques are common fro doors, either across the frame or more stealthily near the hinge. You want it to be a little stealth because an informed adversary could break the seal, remove it, and be prepared to replace/recreate it when they're done (like faking a new wax seal)
Maybe overspray some spraypaint on the paper first and take a picture of the droplet pattern, so it can't be replaced easily.
spot on, but they used coffee to make a unique pattern.
