Attention all business owners!
We’ve received reports of counterfeit money circulating in the area. Please be extra vigilant when accepting cash payments. Here are a few tips to help you spot counterfeit bills:
1. **Check the security features:** Look for watermarks, security threads, and color-shifting ink.
2. **Feel the texture:** Genuine currency has a distinct feel, so be wary of bills that feel too smooth or too rough.
3. **Inspect for consistency:** Make sure the printing is sharp and clear, with no blurred areas or smudges.
4. **Use a counterfeit detection pen:** These pens can help identify fake bills by reacting with the paper used in genuine currency.
