You can tell a fake bill from a legit one from touch alone once you've run a register for a while. The security strips glow under a blacklight and can be seen by holding the bills up to the lights overhead, too.
That's how it is for everything. You either pay with time or money. Time when you don't have money or money when you don't have time. Like you either fix your car yourself or save enough to have a repair shop do it for you.
Oh Mike is so savage.. Good call Mike. Give back the $150 and in the long run, cause more then $150 in damage. I wish we could of seen a picture of it when Karen got to where she was going.. hmmm.. NICE...
Oh man, especially those glass tables. I really hope they hit every pothole they could possibly hit too. It probably came tumbling out like in a cartoon too. Gotta love Mike. Cancelling the job like that. If she did try to sue him, his defense would be, "Uh, we cancelled the job due to the blizzard and never moved her stuff. Here's the proof."
Oh I have the unfortunate geographic position of being in between two Secret Service offices. I had gotten in to counterfeit $20 bills when I worked retail. They passed all the tests for the chemical burn the fibers all the stuff that you would see on a normal bill. Spent 12 hours in interrogation going over the exact five minutes about 40,000 different ways with 20 different people. What happened was someone smuggled out the real note paper from the Philadelphia printing location for the US Department of treasury. Which explains why everything was correct the ink the strips the watermarks the chemical property. Everything was correct except for they only had 10 serial numbers which these were not sequential. EDIT: PLEASE forgive the grammar errors this was done like 7 times on my iPhone and no matter what I typed it F'd it up.
Except that the bill still shouldn't have passed ALL the tests unless they had access to more than just the paper...even the INK used to print currency is a very special, HIGHLY Guarded Secret so just getting some of the paper won't let you make a perfect counterfeit bill because no ink you can get for your printing press will pass the chemical tests (I think the testing pen checks the Ink, not the Paper)...
@@HappilyHomicidalHooligan I don’t know what all they had but everything that we had to test bills anything $10 or more this was pre-watermark like the current bills app think 1998. But it had the ribbons the threads and the ink they used was probably counterfeit but it for test under the light of the UV scan lamp we had and of course the ink marker which chemically tested the paper.
Why in the world didn't they call the police on someone trying to pass off counterfeit currency? And I would hope they have video of her and the license plate of the car.
The minimum sentence for counterfeiting is like 10 yrs. It doesn’t even have to be a large bill or amount of money. Also, it doesn’t go to just the police, it also goes to the federal government. It’s just easier to deal with it directly than to leave it to the authorities
Anyone who has seen a busted car side glass can get a pretty good picture of what awaited that Karen when she opened the truck. Furniture glass is similar shatter safety glass!
I worked retail, we were told not to use the money check pens because they don’t work on the new bills. So I held them up to the light as you did. US paper money also has small red & blue threads running throughout. There are only three companies that make the rag paper. The ink never completely dries so criminals will wash the ink off & print a larger denomination on it. So holding it up to the light to see the watermark & denomination strip. The lines & print should be extremely sharp & clear on real ones. The weight & feel (rough not smooth) of the bill is important too. Our boss showed us some someone took in our store. They were smooth, a tiny bit glossy & the weight of a page of a magazine. Sigh... unfortunately our store didn’t think it was important to educate new employees. I tried to as much as possible. But when you have a supervisor say you’re wasting the customer’s time.....sigh
Darcy lying about the truck, the storage unit, and basically treating OP and his boss like pieces of sh*t... that "woman" is the type of customer who deserves to be squashed by her items. Horrid woman
I had one of our younger cashiers, also in a hardware store, come up after the transaction and after the woman left and ask me if the $50 bill she handed him was real. The moment I touched it I knew it wasn't. Never seen a counterfeit in my life but I just knew it didn't feel right. Lol
I had a guy come in with a $20 bill printed on some kind of paper towel material. It was a hot day and he was trying to buy some cold sodas. He handed me the bill, and it was so warm and soggy that it was falling apart. I didn't even need to pen it (although I did to follow store policy). I just gave it back to him and told him to take that crap somewhere else.
As to the first story it would have been good to get the plate number of the car and turn it over to the police and have them arested and jailed for what they tried to do. As to the last story Mike handled that perfectly. As far as bad revews that are baseless a buisness should be able to dispute them and sue for slander.
Still don't understand why the USA doesn't print notes in plastic. I live in Australia and i've never had to deal with money getting damaged and unusable. It's also much harder to counterfeit them.
The Mover's Karen got what she deserved, but story teller chose to pack her goods to intentionally damage her stuff, i.e. placing heavy items on glass. If this stuff shifts and falls on it, oh well, but to intentionally cause it to break, that's another level.
Less of potentially damage her property and more of moving as much crap as they can without concern that they might get damaged once the truck gets moving.
@@shirleysenkler781 Yes, a dead giveaway!! If she said "I accidentally took my kids' Monopoly money out of the wrong envelope," it could've worked!! But when you smell and look like desperation, it has to be a confession!!
Trying to load a truck in -2F and blizzard conditions??! WTF?! I'd have offered hot coffee or cocoa AND a meal with the extra $$. I couldn't do that myself and wouldn't under those conditions,
First story.....why was the police not contacted immediately while the lady was in the store and waiting for "someone else to check the bills?" Delayed reaction of catch the criminal in the act while they are there and waiting for police to arrive? I guess not everyone thinks the same.
If you have a theft problem, you get to know the police reaction time. You know how long it will take the police to get there versus how long it takes that person to leave. Often times, you know it's not worth calling the police.
Honestly the movers were just dumb . They can still be sued . They should have just walked away from the beginning because it wasn't what they agreed on .
Yet another repeat. I've heard this story, though admittedly, it was a couple or 3 months ago, but from this channel. I guess I'll see if I can find a different one.
Does no one ever edit these videos? When most people make a mistake, they re-record it, then EDIT OUT THE MISTAKE. Y'all just keep on going like it didn't happen. But it did happen. And it keeps happening. Is anyone gonna fix it? Ever?
You can’t counterfeit bills by photo coping them. There are things on currency that the printers recognise and WILL NOT PRINT THEM GOOD OR CLEAR ENOUGH TO FAKE ANYONE, EVEN REMOTELY! They also inform you that it’s illegal to copy currency. This has been installed since the very first printer! It’s called EURion Constellation, and there’s a couple other things too. Self checkouts WILL NOT ACCEPT counterfeit currency either! The 4-$100 bills story is BS!
I worked the main cash office for a large nationwide corporation and we had counterfeit bills accepted through our self checks. Which I know shouldn't have happened. We still don't know why it did. We had some major storms come through and had lost power but when power was back on is when it happened so nothing is fool proof
You can tell a fake bill from a legit one from touch alone once you've run a register for a while. The security strips glow under a blacklight and can be seen by holding the bills up to the lights overhead, too.
That Karen in the moving story learned a tough lesson.... "You can have it done fast or right, not both!"
That's how it is for everything. You either pay with time or money. Time when you don't have money or money when you don't have time. Like you either fix your car yourself or save enough to have a repair shop do it for you.
No, it's fast, cheap, and right: pick 2 out of 3: can't have all of them.
"cnt leave a reciew if the job was canceled" lmao i love his tactics, well played
Oh Mike is so savage.. Good call Mike. Give back the $150 and in the long run, cause more then $150 in damage. I wish we could of seen a picture of it when Karen got to where she was going.. hmmm.. NICE...

For the mover story, that boss is very smart and a great boss. And the Karen in that story will have learnt an expensive but valuable lesson.

Any one who has delt with cash for any length of time can tell 90% of the time phony bills.
Correction. Counterfeit money is never destroyed. It's kept on file, in case other similar bills come in.
Most people think it is destroyed but only real money is 🤷🏼♀️😂
Only a few bills are kept as examples.
Why in the world didn't they call the police on someone trying to pass off counterfeit currency? And I would hope they have video of her and the license plate of the car.
Last time someone did that it lead to riots in all our major cities.

I'm so ROFL of the counterfeit bills made of construction paper. What, she had her kindergarteners make them for her? LOL

@@MiseRaen Right! Move it out NOW!!! The bitch insisted on it.
love the last story with the movers, that story is pure gold
Moving story (any job, really): You can have it fast, good, or cheap. Choose two.
Dilly-dallying is a very common phrase in use in England!!
Or use a good quality paper, like a linen blend, to make your copies.
I have real money in the car!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Call the po-po right now! Funny as f***!
I have real money in the car sounds like a confession to me.
@@shirleysenkler781 Yes, a dead giveaway!! If she said "I accidentally took my kids' Monopoly money out of the wrong envelope," it could've worked!! But when you smell and look like desperation, it has to be a confession!!
please do this as podcast too. RUclips drains battery when taking a walk
Had at least once a year denied a purchase because of counterfi bills, oh the stories.....
hey OP your boss Mike is a FREAKING ROCKSTAR
Last story; WOW Great job. Loved it. LOL
Let's go
Good day RW from mid Tn. I hope everyone is having a great day.
Trying to load a truck in -2F and blizzard conditions??! WTF?! I'd have offered hot coffee or cocoa AND a meal with the extra $$. I couldn't do that myself and wouldn't under those conditions,
That's sooooooooooooo funny. The Karen learned who is owner of the property, and did not like the consequences! 🤡

Hi redwheel have a good day today
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Good evening RedWheel

2 ! Have nice evening
You can NOT possibly PHOTOCOPY any paper money.
Older copiers do not have the safety feature to stop counterfeit printing. Prior to 2000 machines can.
Second one l'm calling B S , if it was two below zero l really doubt that it was snowing that hard. -2* the air is pretty dry.
The teaser-writer is hung up on privates. . .
