Stealing money or item is very different than circulating counterfeit. If he had just robbed the place, stole item or money from the cashier etc, the crime would stop there, the loss would stop there. But he is using counterfeit, what's more a relatively small bill. Which means the same counterfeit might be used as a change to unwitting customers too.

Stealing is stealing. It all adds up. He is not the only thief out there stealing and it causes prices to go up which we all pay for. I know that won't make much sense to your childish, immature, entitled Tic Tok generation.

As someone who used to cashier i am absolutely not looking at little serial numbers on a bill if there’s a bunch of people in line. Not when people will yell at you and spit on you for it. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’ve never been paid enough or had enough time to also be focused on fraud protection Edit: As cashiers, we are trained to NOT defend against robberies. That isn’t our job. It never was. I have no idea who gave y’all the idea that a cashiers life is worth less than $100. Reading the replies only makes me realize how little we value life as a society. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

@@dunjun9937 "Nobody owes each other anything, that’s entitlement." Above that you stated: maybe company’s should pay more for the employees to care. The principle you exhibit through your comment is the embodiment of entitled thinking - something many Americans are plagued with. They could get paid $10 more dollars an hour, but the reality is, that's not going to magically change the work ethics of an individual. One with good moral standards always does their honest best no matter how much they're being paid. Why? Because it was the job they were entrusted with. Someone with poor principles, work ethics, and an attitude of indifference is always going to be a poor worker no matter how much they get paid. "& yes this world should be all about yourself & your time." This is the selfish kind of thinking that has been conditioned into the population which contributes to the downfall and breakdown of society. The notion of goodwill is fast becoming a rare quality.

[@user_1abc]

10 bills of the same serial number? I don't think so. Most of the times it's just one bill passed on at convenience stores, pharmacy or food trucks. Plus you can see in the footage that there wasn't like a big queue or anything...and the cashier even gave a cursory glance at the bills before counting them. I mean you could miss that if they were just two or three bills. And he/they did this at multiple Walmart stores within the same week. So basically Walmart is also slow at alerting cashiers or reacting to such incidents. More about stupidity/laxity than fraud.

[@user_1abc]

@Treedom Vellacroix Care to share evidence that it happened "EVERY DAY" in every city? 10 bills of the same serial number used at a large retail store? No way. Talk about exaggeration. A thousand fake bills being in existence (albeit with same serial number) and THEY BEING USED at a large retail store are not the same things.

The first cashier probably knew something was fishy because she turned the last bill over and looked at the back.

the brief look on the story there is a 10 printed on the back. Better to hold them up to the light and look at which water mark they have'

@@olwe1000 or you can just look at the microglitter on the bottom right 10(or any domination above 10) That microglitter is easy to see under the lights in the store and its super hard to copy, I've personally never seen a copy with microglitter... they do exist, but they will generally be 20 or higher and generally get checked with a marker and more highly scrutinized.

[@hiphop2u]

@@Fstop313 you act like acquiring something like that is difficult, you just get a vpn on tor browser, hit the dark web, find a vendor with good reviews, pay for counterfeits usually 5-15 cents on the dollar, and get em mailed to you in 2 days. There is literally almost 0 risk too, if the cashier says sumn, walk off and go home. I’d say the only reason he’d get flak at all is purely because he was on the news and he may get recognized, but this is a super rare case.

If he made those bills with different serial number, would they ever even know they were fake? As long as they don't put them into a atm or bank they wouldn't know right? And I don't think stores put their money in the bank every day. Also, he shouldn't had returned the items, he should had just brought the stuff he wanted with the fake cash. Sure he wouldn't be able to put it in the bank and buy stuff online with it but he could by a lot of stuff with cash at stores and they wouldn't notice until they put it in the bank. As long as he is spending it slowy, and making sure each bill has a different serial number, it would be a lot harder to track him.
