Dear Editor,
Counterfeit is stirring in Guyana. I have detected this twice in my business while doing business transaction with customers.
Therefore, I urge business owners to check their money properly before collecting from customers. Please check for distinguishing marks or features that the real currency might have, such as the thousand dollar($1000), which has a macaw that can be detected when put close to the light. This feature distinguishes the real from fake.
The counterfeit money range from five hundred ($500) and bigger notes. Counterfeit money can cause nothing but a loss to businesses and is a crime.
Please report to the Police if you received large quantities of counterfeit money immediately.
Counterfeiting is the illegal reproduction of money, products, or services with the intent to deceive.
Yours sincerely,
Amanda Sawh
