Controversial issues:
As a

matters that affect the quality of our lives. The
most effective and least offensive manner to get
your point across is to stick to the issue

opinion. Letters that deviate from focusing on the
issue may be rejected or edited and marked as such.

To the editor: I thought I would inform you of some newsworthy
information in order for consumers and merchants to be aware.
About a week ago, while making a Legends Billiards Bar bank
deposit, it was discovered that one of the 50s was possibly
counterfeit. The bank sent it off to the Fed for verification. I was
told yesterday, the Fed confirmed it was. The customer who gave it
to us, very well could have received it from any other location or
another person who had no idea it was counterfeit. We were just out
the $50.
[to top of second column in this letter] |
However, since this has happened and going forward, we are taking
special precaution to check the currency. Even though this was just
one bill that may have slipped through the cracks, I thought it best
to let you know so you may want to give a "heads up" to everyone
else out there, especially through the holidays. Merchant and
consumers, "beware."
Thank you.
