In
Columbia, counterfeit money is on the rise. Over the past two weeks,
police discovered more than 20 cases of fake money. The bills are
mainly showing up at local businesses. Police want workers to be sure
and check any money received carefully by using a specially-designed
marker. They’re asking people to be careful and don’t accept money from
strangers. The bills currently circulating are hundreds, twenties,
fifties and tens. Investigators said they’re pursuing a number of leads
at this time.
