Counterfeit bills discovered in Arlington, Vt.

Posted: Updated:

ARLINGTON, Vt. – Vermont State Police are asking for the public's help in tracking the source of counterfeit bills in the area.

An employee at the Stewart's Bread and Butter Shop in the Town of Arlington contacted Vermont State Police after they discovered the store had received two counterfeit $20 bills between November 24th 8:00 p.m. and November 25th 12:00 p.m.

The Berkshire Bank in Arlington confirmed the bills were fake.  Counterfeit bills often feel different than actual US currency and also lack some of the unique characteristics.

Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Vermont State Police at 802-442-5421.  Information can also be submitted anonymously online at www.vtips.info or  text "CRIMES" (274637) to Keyword: VTIPS.
