Good read thanks for sharing. I'll have to keep an eye out for these. I wish they showed a close up of the fakes.
Rest in Peace

Interesting article @winterfell, thanks for sharing.

I was not aware the new $100's were being counterfeited. Gluing two sheets together was also new to me.

The only dead giveaway in that picture of the 100s is the fact that it has the signature of a 2006 bill, but the first letter is "F" which was used on the 2003A bills.
