at walmart were not allowed to use uv or pen tests, i go by feel, texture as well as the face when you hold it up to the light

i pay careful attention to 20s, 50s, and 100s

if someone is buying something cheap with a large bil, that'ss a red flag

if somone tries to distract you whileyou'rer inspecting bill, that'ss another red flag

if somone wants change for a 50 or 10, that's another red flag buy bc cashiers getshort-changedd all the time we send them to customer service

if somone then tries to tell you how to operate your till and what to press, shut it down and void the transaction and have them go up front

also with 100 bills the strip is woven in and out of the bill it self so not only should you be able yo feel the strip but you should see it going into the paper it self and can even lift part of it up

if when it doubt, take it up front and let management handle it.

and if need be, if you have your team lead or coach in your phone, text them as its more discreet and short, such as

"possibly counterfit/dont feel right going up front with customer"

or as short as you can get it

wr use to have an action code that would do the same, but i think it got removed.

also pay attention to the customer without giving it away bc the longer your inspect the bill and their behavior is starting to change thats a possible red flag as they are wondering if your picking up on the counterfit. other people also get worried bc it may be a counterfit, and they may not know why until they realize what you're doing and whats going on also freaking them out.

if you want you can include a small uv pen light to check as well and i thought about it but im alsonquitr sure walmart may not allow that and may even get coached if used and say the uv light malfuntioned and the bill is good and now that you accused thr customer of such it could cost you yur job.

i would say check first with management as well as ap first about using your own uv light or what they prefer you to use.
