    I believe if you were to take this to your bank and tell them that someone tipped you this and you just want to check it it’s counterfeit or real, the FBI would suddenly be involved

      It doesn’t look close enough to a real bill. The person on the counter would probably just say they will get someone involved and then throw it away and do nothing.

        It doesn’t look close enough to a real bill for the bank/Secret Service to care about. I’ve seen someone charged with counterfeit money when they had the movie money that literally says “This is not real money, it is for cinematic purposes only” on the back. Cops and DAs can fuck you twice over.

      US Secret Service is in charge of counterfeiting investigations, not the FBI.
