The Sandpoint
Police Department has responded to a few
businesses in Sandpoint reference to counterfeit
$100 bills. There are concerns that some of the
fake bills may make their way to Boundary County
businesses. The suspect is washing a one dollar bill and then photocopying a 100 dollar bill onto the paper. If you use a pen to mark the bill it will show that the bill’s paper is valid. If you hold the bill up to the light you will be able to see the word “one” on the bill. The suspect has been described as a white male, age 17-22 and has blond hair. The suspect has been wearing a black hoodie and glasses. The suspect has been alone and buying small items, only spending a couple dollars. Please be cautious when taking in $100 bills. |
