Police in Letcher County are investigating counterfeit money that is being used in the city of Jenkins.
Everyone in Jenkins and the surrounding area is being advised to carefully examine any cash they take, especially $20 bills.
In a social media post, the Jenkins Police Department reports that the fake dollars can state “For Motion Picture Purposes” where “United States of America” is denoted or “In prop we trust.”
The fake money will also feel slightly thinner.
If you have received fake money, call Jenkins City Hall during business hours or contact law enforcement.
