Yeah; I was kinda waiting for this sorta story, myself. Some thoughts: > By definition, the discovery of a counterfeit note means an attempt > at fraud has been thwarted. Hardly. It's certainly possible, but it's also likely that an employee has already accepted the bill as payment, and a manager, etc., detected this after going through the till. > "We see this every time there's a new note put into circulation -- > people try to challenge the system," Not just that. Even (or especially) when people know that the new bills are coming out, if they haven't yet had a chance to inspect a real one yet, it's quite possible that they'll think, "Oh, it's different, but it's *supposed* to be different, so it's ok." ===== -- David Beroff ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Founder/CEO, note.com LLC P.O.
