Be wary of counterfeit money circulating in Newberg area

Financial Affairs reports that some counterfeit money is being handed out in the Newberg area. We had one in our deposit today and have no way to know where it came from. What we had was a $10 bill, but others could be around also.

The best way to tell is by holding the bill up to a light. There should be a narrow strip running from top to bottom of the bill and a picture of the president (only seen when held up to the light) on the side of the bill. We do not feel this was passed to us intentionally, but it should be something we all watch for.

If you have any questions, please contact Jan Amerson in Financial Affairs at ext. 2164.
