Well like the title states I believe I got a fake one from the ATM. I took out a good amount to go make a store payment (GAP, Sears, Macy's) type of card. I told the lady I would like to make a payment of this. She punched it in and started checking the money under the black light. I guess they are suppose to change colors. All of them were good except 1. I know I didn't have any other money on me because I hate to carry cash.
The weird part about it is that it has the water marks, has the little strip and the paper feels like any other 20 did. I am over here scratching my head trying to figure out if it's fake or not. I called Chase because that's where I took out the money and they put me on hold a couple times and finally came back and told me I have to take it in to get it tested. The only other thing that came to mind is that it's a rare mess up from the printing press.

If it's truly fake (and he didn't do anything about it other than to use it), then he can be arrested for using a fake bill.

Although it might have the strip and watermark, it might NOT be the right one. There has been a lot of 5 dollar bills being bleached and then reprinted as 20's. You really have to look out for those counterfeits.

Phil is right, a store owner is suppose to check the bill and if its fake they're suppose to call the cops and try to hold the person who brought it in until the cops come in....

To check if the bill is a authentic 20.00 bill, you can feel the dude's suit because it has a rough texture, look at the water strip( twenty should spelled out, and every other one will be backwards). Then check for the normal watermark head

why not just take it into the bank, tell them you pulled it out of their machine, and you'd like to verify its authenticity?

afaik they have the serial no. on file?

if he takes it to a bank and they do verify that it is a fake they are required to take the money and he will be **** out of luck, go buy some gas....

the bank is suppoed to exchange it for you if it came out of their machine

But from there, wouldn't it just turn into a question of a person's integrity or credibility if he were to do that? Some banks just don't trust their customers anymore...Just saying.

the bank will take the money from you if indeed it is a fake, youll get a letter from the treasury dept for a deduction credit on your taxes, it happen to me with a $100, go to the titty bar and just get a dance LOL

Yup, if it's a fake you don't get to exchange. They take it and that's the end of story. You lose out. It sucks.

Listen to the guy! haha

The bank has no way of verifying that the OP got it from the ATM.

I also think its unlikely that you got it from the ATM (if it really is a fake) most ATM money comes directly from Downtown Vault
