An Garda Siochana in Letterkenny have asked business owners to show vigilance after a counterfeit €50 was reported in the town.
Gardaí took to social media to share the appeal. They said: “It was been brought to our attention that a counterfeit €50 note was taken in by a business in Letterkenny town yesterday. We urge all businesses to be aware that these fake notes may be in circulation and to advise staff to thoroughly check all notes received.
“Some of these notes can be produced in a very professional manner and the best way to ensure that it is genuine currency is to have staff use a counterfeit note checker pen or similar methods at the points of payment. Please be vigilant and advise your staff and share amongst your contacts.”
