As a life that we live here and deal with a different kinds of people, in work,office,neighbors,sellers,etc.
And we recognize that the money we use had some gangs to fake it and use it in the markets.
For this introduction I will ask you this question which is happen to me and I know if is happen to you too and what you have done with it, the question is:If you got to store or shop or what ever it is, to buy something you need, and when you go to pay the money of what you have got of these things, the cashier man take the money from you and start to test it if it is fake or not, what you should do in this case?
-Be angry and shout in him because he suspect of you?
-Just smile because you realize he should test all the money he get and it is his job and responsibility?I hope you dont get bother by this discussion and give your thoughts about it, thanks in advance.

Just smile, it's his job. They do that in the U.S. also for anything larger than a $20. American money is getting more difficult to counterfeit, but not impossible. If I was going to print my own money, I wouldn't do large bills. I'd stick with $5 and $10. Nobody ever tests those.

Hi alkurishy,
Yes they do that well in our country because they have to there to many fake money around and when I worked in a shop I had to do that as well. No you should not affence as if you gave the over to the shop and they fine its fake then someone has gaven you the fake and cheated you, so if anyone else give you the money you should check as well.

I can remember where I got every bill in my wallet. I know who paid me what, and i one turned out o be fake, I'd not yell at the casier, rater I'd go back to he person who gave it to me. If it was the bank, I'd get upset with them for not looking close. If it was my mother, I'd ask where she got he bill, and maybe we could trace it's path back to the original ower. Maybe someone acidentally gave it o my moher, and she accidentally gave it to me, and I acidentally gave it to someone at the coffee shop, or something like that. I would try to find where the ill came rom, by talking to the people in my past, and getting them to help me trae it's path.

for me, it is ok if the cashier man will check my money which i pay... it is his/her responsibility so there no worry about that... atleast i am sure that i did not pay a fake bill... inoder for him/her to perform his/her duty... because it is such and precautionary measures and i will not get mad because of that... i understand why he/she will do that...

alkurishy hi it is his job and does not reflect on you
personally so just smile and let him check thengo '
about your business. life is too short to get angry
over things like this,its just common sense on the part
of the clerk to be sure he gets no fake or counterfeit money. so just mark it off as nothing personal and go on from there.

It is ok for me, as the cashier man is just doing his job. He has to take responsibility in case he received fake money and causing company's lost. Thus, it is reasonable for him to verify the money.

Hi alkurishy,
In my Country, only very few people are using debit card and there are who used credit card but the number of people who pay with cash is outstanding..Malls and grocery stores experienced in few occasions that they received fake money from their customer. SO, to avoid that to happen, they will really check the money if it's real..I didn't take it personal, I know it's their duty and responsibility to do it otherwise they will be suffering the consequence if ever they will not be able to detect it..
So, normally, I will be very patient waiting until it was checked and my transactions will be finished!

Why get angry at a person for doing their job? It is not a reflection on you that they are testing the money. It is a reflection on society that they must test the money.
This happens in the US as well. It is why I never carry any cash in my pocket of larger denominations. It is also why I usually pay with my Debit card.

hi alkurishy ..
i havent come across a situation like this so far. But there are a lot of fake currencies rounding here.
But if it happens i dont think the cashier is to be blamed. He is just doing his duty isnt it?
We shall have to make out from where we got that note and try to do something practical and positive about it.

I will not get mad at them. They just do their jobs. In my country, there will some currency detectors in the banks and markets. They will use those to test it. If the cashiers or tellers got the fake currency by mistake, unfortunately, they have to pay it by their own money. So when they get the big denomination, they have to be very careful.

Well, you can politely tell the cashier you know nothing about the fake money. You can take back the money and make a police report. Before that make sure you take the cashier's name and particulars. Tell her that you are going to make a police report right away. And you need her to be your witness if required by the police. If you are calm and explain it politely, you can avoid the embarrassment and get cooperation from her.
