Fake $100 bills passed in Boardman
BOARDMAN — Township police are looking for someone who managed to slip counterfeit $100 bills by employees at two local movie theaters.
The manager at Cinemark Tinseltown USA on Market Street said he called police at about 5:30 p.m. Sunday after noticing a $100 bill in the cash drawer that looked unusual.
He told police he held the bill up to the light and saw the president’s likeness was Abraham Lincoln, not Benjamin Franklin.
The manager said he talked to the cashier who accepted the money, and was told the bill passed the counterfeit pen test. She said only two people paid with $100 bills that evening.
Police inspected the bill and discovered it had been bleached and reprinted to look like a $100, but the security strip was still intact.
