On Oct. 31, at 3:05 p.m., a frontline Trail and Greater District RCMP officer received a report from a financial institution about the discovery of a $50 and $100 counterfeit Canadian bill found in circulation in Trail, according to RCMP Sgt. Mike Wicentowich.
“Both bills were believed to be used at a local business and were discovered when they were deposited into their account at the financial institution,” Wicentowich said.
The investigation is ongoing.
“We encourage local businesses to check high valued denominations like $50 and $100 to ensure they are authentic before accepting them as payment,” Wicentowich said.
