RCMP are asking businesses to check any U.S. bills they handle very closely after getting reports of counterfeit cash.
Between Jan. 17 and Jan. 25, a bank in Middleton and four Kings County businesses reported they received fake American $10, $20, and $50 bills.
Mounties have released photos of the funny money.
The $10 bills all have the serial number MD 62800780 B, all the $20s have the serial number MF 22775612 J, and the serial number on all the $50s is MG 85488595 A.
“If you unknowingly accept counterfeit currency as legal tender, you cannot be reimbursed,” say police.
Investigators have charged two suspects with possession of counterfeit currency and uttering counterfeit currency.
Tessa Lee Davidson, 24, of Kentville and Brandon Drew Corbin, 22, of Berwick are scheduled to appear in Kentville Provincial Court Thursday.
