Almost $1 million in counterfeit $1 bills seized by customs

Tin foil hats ON tightly people . . . Better put on a double layer. I'll bet you haven't heard about this! 


Did you know that in January 2020 Customs & Border Patrol seized $900,000 in counterfeit ONE DOLLAR BILLS! That's right, $1 notes. Now who in their right minds would even bother to fake such a low value bill? Fact is the $1 note is the most widely passed and circulated money on the planet.



What a great way to spread a disease . . . . like the flu maybe . . . . like the corona flu maybe . . . .



And what a great excuse to claim that going to a cashless payment system would eliminate that threat. WHAT IF, HUH? One more step along the way towards the mark of the beast.



Oh yeah, those fake bills . . . made in China. → CHINA ← Yeah, the very same China that we've all seen photo's of them spraying their own money with disinfectant during this flu out break.



I will now direct you to some sources for your illumination. The conspiracy theory runs strong in this one for me, folk


Almost $1 million in counterfeit seized by customs — all in single-dollar bills

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials report seizing $900,000 in counterfeit cash – all of it in singles.



The dollar bills were discovered in December at the International Falls Port of Entry in Minnesota in a rail shipment originating from China, per a statement from CBP.



An investigation found 45 cartons filled with singles, which were confirmed to be fake by the Secret Service.



“CBP officers strive every day to protect the United States from a variety of threats,” said Jason Schmelz, a CBP port director, in a statement. “Those threats don’t always come in the form of terrorists or narcotics, but also in the form of counterfeit currency and other goods that have the potential to harm the economy of the United States."



A CBP investigation found 45 cartons filled with singles, which were confirmed to be fake by the Secret Service.

The counterfeit money was seized and will be sent to the Secret Service.



Single-dollar bills, according to the Federal Reserve, have stayed the same since 1963 because the "note is infrequently counterfeited."


There is also a provision in the annual Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Act that prohibits the bill's redesign.



"Thanks to the dedication of our officers and our partnership with the Secret Service, we were able to keep this currency from entering into circulation," Schmelz said.
