batampos – It is believed that the circulation of counterfeit Singapore Dollars in Batam has not touched money changers. Because, some money changers have never received fake money.

“Never got it. "Indeed, he said there were fake dollars," said Lucy, a money changer employee in the Bumi Indah Complex area, Nagoya, Thursday (1/2)

He admitted that he had to be more careful in examining fake and genuine dollar bills. Such as checking the texture of the money, thickness, and quality of the money printing.

"There isn't one yet, if there is, I'll definitely report it to the boss or the police straight away," he said.
