Quality of paper, thread observation, sizes and fonts, holograms etc are the primary things which should be considered for checking the authenticity of a note. With the increasing counterfeit currency crime, every country has issued guidelines which you should know while dealing with cash. Check the details below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-feel-the-texture\"><span id=\"feel-the-texture\">Feel the Texture<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>All genuine and original currency note has a distinct feel. Indian currency, for example, is made of cotton and cellulose material. Run your fingers over the note to familiarize yourself with the texture. You can easily feel the difference between original and fake notes by their paper quality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-check-for-watermarks-and-security-threads\"><span id=\"check-for-watermarks-and-security-threads\">Check for Watermarks and Security Threads<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Authentic currency notes have watermarks and security threads. Hold the note up to the light to see these features, which are difficult for counterfeiters to replicate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-verify-the-holograms\"><span id=\"verify-the-holograms\">Verify the Holograms<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Indian currency notes feature holographic images, which change appearance when tilted. Genuine holograms are challenging to reproduce accurately. You can easily check the hologram and spot the same if it&#8217;s fake.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-examine-microprint\"><span id=\"examine-microprint\">Examine Microprint<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Authentic notes have microprint that is clear and sharp. You can use a magnifying glass to check for tiny text that is difficult to replicate precisely.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-look-for-color-shifting-ink\"><span id=\"look-for-color-shifting-ink\">Look for Color-Shifting Ink<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some currency denominations use colour-shifting ink. Tilt the note to observe color changes which is a feature challenging for counterfeiters to copy. Also, those inks are not easily available to everyone and are closely monitored by the government.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-formatting-on-currency-notes\"><span id=\"formatting-on-currency-notes\">Formatting on currency notes<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Through every currency note, a series of unique numbers run which you can easily notice. The size, alignment and gaps between the figures or digits are useful to identify if the note is fake. If the alignment is poor or the numerical figures are unequal then the note is counterfeit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background\"><strong><em>Looking for currency exchange at cheaper rates?

Some fake currency notes seem so genuine that if you are not fully alert you will accept it. Every country has different laws that punish individuals who have been caught circulating counterfeit currency.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In India,&nbsp; if you are making any attempt to circulate counterfeit currency with the knowledge that it is fake, then it is punishable under IPC Section 489C which will attract a fine as a penalty or imprisonment varying from seven years to life imprisonment, or both. Let\u2019s understand how to deal with the situation where you have accepted fake currency by mistake:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Immediately report the incident to the bank or the police that you have accepted fake currency by mistake.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hand over the note to the bank and ask them to provide an acknowledgement for the same so that you can keep a record.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In case the fake notes have been received from an ATM, immediately show the notes to the CCTV camera in the ATM. If there is a security guard for the ATM, then inform the same about it and also keep the receipt of your transaction safe so that you can claim a refund from the bank.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-faqs-on-identifying-fake-money\"><span id=\"faqs-on-identifying-fake-money\">FAQs on  Identifying Fake Money<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1706082887065\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What to do if I have received a fake note?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">If you have received a fake note, immediately report it to the police or any RBI-regulated bank.
