Police Warn of Fake $100 Bills in Huron

Huron Police are warning businesses to be on the lookout for fake $100 bills. 

Several weeks ago, the Huron Police Department (HPD) received reports that counterfeit bills were being circulated at local businesses. HPD detectives spent several hours talking to witnesses, interrogating suspects and watching surveillance video, which resulted in an arrest in connection with those reported incidents. The HPD is once again receiving reports of counterfeit $100 bills being passed in town at local businesses.

"Please be extra careful when accepting any $100 bills at this time. Even be cautious of accepting these bills from friends and trusted associates, as they may have unknowingly come into possession of a counterfeit bill during a transaction," the Huron Police Department warned in a Facebook post on Tuesday.

Here are some things to look for that distinguish these counterfeit bills: 

  • Small red Chinese writing printed on back side of the bill.
  • Counterfeit Money Detector Pens will leave a brown mark.
  • Holding bill to the light you will not see Franklin’s face in the watermark portion.
  • View pictures of a counterfeit bill.
