The ‘Real Deal’ In Spotting Fakes

When credit cards, internet and phone banking first became popular in the 1990’s many said it would be the death of physical money, that in the not-too-distant future people would use electronic currency stored on special cards. It seemed a natural progression for a concept first thought up 100,000 years ago when people realised that it would be easier to give somebody a handful of shells for a potential bride than it would finding 18 water buffalo and three eagle’s eggs. However, 20 years later, people are still hanging onto physical money as if their lives depended on it and people are still trying to copy it.

It would be easy to believe that the instant money was created somebody started counterfeiting it. ‘Making’ money is an old, if illegal, profession and practitioners are getting better at their craft. US state officials recently warned the world about counterfeit $100 US ‘super notes’ which were so good they could fool experts.

Thankfully there is a long list of products that can now help consumers and traders spot fake bills. Small business owners and normal citizens can now afford to ensure they are not fooled by fake notes. This compact, lightweight device is ideal for small business owners looking to be sure the currency they have coming in is genuine. In the current environment this item is a must have for those working in the retail business and a ‘must carry’ for those servicing that industry.
