Lady Vendor Expresses Dismay After Deceived by Fake Money in Sipalay City Market
FAKE MONEY – A female vendor at the market of Sipalay City fell victim to counterfeit money without even noticing.
Fake money refers to counterfeit currency or bills that are not genuine and are illegally produced or altered to resemble real currency. These counterfeit bills are often used by criminals to deceive others into accepting them as genuine currency for goods or services.
It is illegal to produce, possess, or use counterfeit money, and it can have serious consequences for both suspects and those who unknowingly accept it. Recipients might lose money or get in trouble with the police without even knowing they did something wrong.
Recently, a lady vendor was left disheartened after receiving fake money from her customer. She failed to make a profit that day due to the huge amount of cash she lost to the heartless suspect.
Mercy Malacad, the daughter of the deceived vendor, expressed her thoughts on the incident.
“Kalooy lang gd sang ma biktima nila parihas sa eloy ko biskan galain ang pamatyag ga sulay sa initan libud sng baligya ya pra my EBAKAL SNG KINAHNGLANUN pru gin budol lang nila tani ma dakpan na ni sila para wala na may ma biktima pa,” Malacad said.
(It’s really heartbreaking to see them victimize people like my mother. Even though they feel unwell, they try to sell to meet our needs, but these people just toy with our necessities. They should be caught so that no one else falls victim)
Authorities advised everyone to be vigilant and careful, especially when handling money. It’s important to be cautious in every transaction we make, especially in buying and selling at the market.
