I saw my first conterfeit bill to day. I was paying for a couple of air filters at a local hardware store and payed with a 10 dollar bill. The old lady marked it with the pen and almost pissed her pants. I watched her do it and thought "oh sh!t"
She turned to me and gave me a look like I was gonna kill her and then radioed the owner who turned out to know me. He checked it with a light and couldn't find the metallic strip. He said he was supposed to call the police but just told me to take it home.
I was shocked to find out he gets at least a couple a week, mostly 5 dollar bills!!??!!
I took it home and the more I look at it the more you can tell how fake it is,,,,,I mean real fake! The ink is off, the color is off and the paper it self is like printer paper with no color threads.
He seemed so calm about it but honestly I think I need to let the law know! I'll try to scan it at work and post the pic.
Talk to me...........................
