Ind. Law - "Avon police seek talented counterfeiter"
At first glance I thought the headline was for a want ad ...
But no, someone is passing fake Benjamins, according to this story from WTHR TV:
Police are hoping you can help identify a man passing what they call some of the best counterfeit bills they've ever seen. * * *There are security camera pictures of a man Avon police hope you can help identify. He's passed several fake 100 dollar bills at businesses in Avon and the Indianapolis area. The fake 100 dollar bills are made with real 5 dollar bills so they would pass the marker test you see cashiers do at the check out.
But when the fake bill with Franklin's portrait on it is held up to the light you can see the watermark portrait of Abraham Lincoln.
