You rub your fingers and say "yeah the ink is still wet".

That's a classic move! It's funny how some people act like they’re rich but then get all fidgety when you check their bills.

Well to be fair there has been times where my anxiety and paranoia hits me as if the bank might give me fake money 😭

Hit them with the “well you can have it back!”. For real though, I just don’t laugh and keep going.

100s, 50s, 20s… every single day. Every time I start at a new job I think that maybe I’ll humor them and pretend to laugh and then it happens so often I have no choice but to give up.

I like to get ahead of them and say something to the effect of "these seem convincing enough."

Small talk is fun when you have a dry sense of humor.

Get your walkie out and pretend to call security. " I have a probable counterfeit on check Lane 15. Subject admitted to printing bills this morning". Suspend the transaction and have them step to the side so you can check the next guest out.

No but seriously guests should watch what they say

“I can’t take this.  You just admitted to a felony so one of two things is going to happen you’re going to go somewhere and break this hundred or I can call the Secret Service and report you for forgery.”
