WARSAW — The Warsaw Police Department has received numerous reports of counterfeit currency being used at local stores.  The $100 bills that are being passed are either marked with “Souvenir of America” on the left side of the bill or, “FOR MOTION PICTURE USE ONLY” on the right side of the bill.  These bills have been passed at numerous stores in the Warsaw area and a suspect has been identified. 

The Warsaw Police Department wants to remind everyone to stay vigilant of counterfeit currency during the holiday season.  If you receive counterfeit currency, report it to your local law enforcement agency.
