Counterfeit Money,Abilene Police Department,Abby's Bottles & Brew

A local Abilene business, Abby's Bottles & Brew, was recently scammed with a counterfeit $100 bill. The incident has prompted warnings from the police department about the importance of checking currency carefully and being vigilant against counterfeiting.

"Well, on Monday we had a gentleman come in and purchase some liquor here at the store and used a counterfeit $100 bill to purchase it," partner at Abby's Bottles & Brew, Debbie Glen, said. "We didn’t realize it right away, there are measures to use, you know, such as the pen to be able to check the 100 dollar bills, but at that time we didn't do it. However, we did take the $100 bill and found out the next day that it was a counterfeit.

"So you’ll see a difference between counterfeit money and motion picture money, or fake money," Detective Hambright said. "Many of them, like here on the $50, it says motion picture money. But what will happen is whenever somebody pays with this, they’ll fold it, or they’ll have it in a way, and the cashier is trying to hurry. So we just, kind of, employ people to take their time, open the bills, check them all, use a pen like this.
