What will you do if you found duplicate currency(note)
-
I assume you mean "forged currency"? As I see it, you have a couple of choices: 1) Pretend you didn't see it, and pass it on to some other poor sod. 2) Take it back to where you got it, and try to exchange it for a real note. 3) Take it to the police and let them deal with it. 4) Take it to a bank and see it they will swap it for real money. 5) Burn it and enjoy the warmth. Option 5 is the only one where you get good karma rather than bad and get something out of it! Option 1 is morally (and legally) difficult - since you know it is forged, you are open to "using counterfeit currency" charges and have no defence "I didn't realize it was fake".

I don't want anyone to be in same situation like me.

Not preferable as they are very hostile towards this cases.

Give it back where you got it from. Or take it to a bank or lodge a police complaint.

I only read code that is properly formatted, adding PRE tags is the easiest way to obtain that.

So, just walk into the bank and give a written complaint and take a receipt from them. The bank has details of the numbers of all the currency notes they fill up an ATM with. They would be able to verify that this currency was dispatched to you by verifying the transaction number. You'll get a refund.

In many countries forging or contributing to forgery of government issues documents (which in essence counterfit money is) carry a penalty equative to that of murder. I am not shitting you. The way the leagal system views it is that by contributing to forgery of currency you are undermining the trust of the currency in question. Further more; stealing is bad - but stealing from the government is daft. Simply because they WILL come after you with all they got. My advise is hand in the note to the police, stating where, when and how it came into your possession. //L
In English common law tampering with the currency used to be worse than most types of murder. Coining[^] was regarded as treason; a category to which only some types of murder (the killing of a lawful superior) reached. Depending on gender the sentence was either burning at the stake, or to be hung, drawn, and quartered.

Play semi-dumb. You said in another part of this thread that you got it from an ATM... Bring it to the bank, and say something like "Hi, I got this from your ATM, and it looks a little funny." Basically, pretend you're not sure whether it's counterfeit... Leave it to them to make that determination. If you establish from the beginning that it came from their ATM, it becomes their problem to fix, psychologically speaking :) Then again, maybe things are different in India... But that's what I'd do.

We have an issue in the UK with forged pound coins. Depending who who ask some infeasible number (1 in 10 i heard somewhere) are forgeries. While everyone ignores the problem it's happy days but the moment someone starts to do something about the problem it'll be like musical chairs when the music stops and everyone loses out.

Belgium has a jail sentence for burning forged currency!? What do they do if you burn the real thing - burn you at the stake? :laugh:

Actually, you're not allowed to burn money; it doesn't specify forged or real. Things must get complicated when you burn forged money and for your defense you then want to proof it was forged money to start with. And forged money is proof of some crime, destroying proof isn't tolerated. Stake is out; Kyoto, Copenhagen, you know. :)
