Counting the Money is good but how often you check the Genuineness of Bank Note?

If you are dealing in Cash, it is a good thing to make sure the count is correct. Well, since Bank Note is a legal tender of a country and surely bearing the respect due to certain factors. I do admit that I count the cash before paying or accepting but seldom check currency note (fake or genuine). But some live instances of encashing the fake currency made me to think upon the genuineness too. How often you check the currency for genuineness, while dealing in cash? Is it good to do so before the person who is paying to you?

australian dollar - australia has used a modern technology for the bank note
Hello,aliasad,honestly i have never check whether a bank note is genuine or not,i believe there are not many falsified bank notes in our country,australia may be the only country in the world which the bank note is like 'plastic',it may be hard for people to make a falsified copy,i just simply just this modern technology,how about you? have you sorted out any fake bank notes?

Hi! I am a student Well, what I feel is that accepting money or dealing in money is not bad but even then one must keep the plastic money like a debit card or credit card, a tension free transaction :) But it doesn't mean that you must deny the importance of money. I do buy lot of things by money. I don't check the fakeness as I don't have much money to deal with. hehehe Thanks for discussion Aliasad!

No its okay friend. I know most of the countries are using secure currency notes and people usually ignorant of even that thought of checking, isn't it? Thanks for response.

I've not ever checked for counterfit paper money, but often the clerks do. The new U.S. currency is apparently more often fake.

I sell things on ebay... and I don't accept personal checks. It's too common that they can bounce, etc. I only accept paypal payments, because paypal backs those payments and I CAN'T lose out.
