LeFlump Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 If you got home from a night out and noticed you had a counterfeit £10 note, would you: A. Throw it in the bin. It was my fault for not checking at the time and is my problem. B. Try and spend it. If it was accepted then it would be their fault for not checking.

LeFlump Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 C. Report it to the police. That's a form of A. They'd take it off you as evidence and you'd be £10 down. My point is that counterfeit money is worthing nothing, so doing the good thing here will cost you. It'll be your loss. You should have a £10 note, but you've got a meaningless piece of paper. d) go out next week and spend the £10 in the same place that gave it to you You went in more than one place, and don't know which one it came from. Could've been the pub, the take-away or the taxi home. Do you try and spend the fake note? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epiphany Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 The true value of fiat money rests on our faith in its exchange for goods. Therefore, if I took the counterfeit money in good faith, why wouldn't someone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
