Fake =P= 1,000 Bills in ATM??

[edgeknife]

---

My friend called me thru the cellfone and around 9 PM at Equitable PCI Bank in Fuente, he withdrawed 1500 pesos, which is 1 pc. 1000 bill and 1 pc. 500 bill. After withdrawing that money, he went to Shell in Lahug to have his car gasolined worth 250 pesos. He paid the 1000 peso bill and when the gasoline boy carefully examined the 1000 pesos bill, he found out that it was FAKE. My friend was so shocked knowing that the money he withdrawed is FAKE. It was not intentional but my question is: What should my friend do to report that the money dispensed is indeed FAKE?

I wrote this because this would not only victimized my friend but all of us. Please have your opinion. Thanks!!

i don't think its possible.....ang ako duda kay ang nagbinuang ang gasoline boy..gi-ilisan iyang money with a fake one....he can report it directly s bank....para ma aware pud ang bank ana...

digay naman ni na issue, na mo dispense og fake money ang mga atm's i dont know if na resolve nani nila na problemaha. better report to the bank, owner of the atm machine.

kakuyaw ani ba. di ra ba lalim mangita ug kuarta karon panahona. may unta ug ilisan.

usa sad sa ako na notice, kasagaran sa mga businesses pag mobayad ka ug 500 or 1000 bill, ila ilista ang serial number kay para siguro magukod ka nila ug fake pero pag ikaw ang mo receive ana nga mga denomination dili jud nila ilista. unfair, di ba

if even these machines doesnt recognize which one if fake, what becomes of us?

as what i my metrobanker friend told me this morning, he told me to report that immediately to equitable pci bank. or if not, you can complain it to bangko sentral. mao ni iya advise. Para lang nako, grabeha sab aning mga taga bangko uy, wala jud sila maka-detect sa fake money?? sila man dapat sweto ana. tsk tsk

Encountered same case. Me and my wife withdrew P15000 (all in 500 bills) in Metrobank Consolacion Branch. We put the money in a small envelop as the bills are too thick for my wallet. We proceeded to Supermetro Metro and bought some groceries worth about P1500. We paid P1500 (took from envelop) to cashier but she noticed that one of the 500 bills is faked.

We immediately went back to the bank and informed about the fake 500 bill. But they declined to accept it. They said all bills are checked before they load into the ATM machine and there is no way that it can dispense faked bills.

We're both shocked, where we got this fake 500 bill?
