Fake $100 Notes

Post by Joker Poker »

Was at WA the other night and bought a beer with one of the new $100 notes. Unbeknown to me, the person who had just been served before me also paid with a new $100 note, and there was a lot of screening going on. Turns out his note was rejected as a fake. Sphincter clenched, they checked mine, no problem.

Thought it might be worth posting this vid on 8 ways to detect the real thing. Painful narration but useful nonetheless.

Thanks for posting this, it was very helpful.

I know how to check the old bills but never thought to learn how with the new ones.
The cedar roasted asparagus has good chew. I don't know how to enjoy it, so I'll Instagram it instead.
