According to the post, the bills were not revealed as counterfeit until they were deposited in a local bank. One of the bills was tested by a standard counterfeit marker and passed that test.
At last report, the funny money had only been reported in the Bridger Valley area of Uinta County, but it s entirely possible that whoever is passing the counterfeit bills has moved on at this point.
Anyone who thinks they may have been given a counterfeit $100 bill should contact either the Uinta County Sheriff s Office or their local law enforcement agency. The Uinta County Sheriff s Dispatch Center can be reached at 1-307-783-1000.
UINTA COUNTY The Uinta County Sheriff’s Office has been notified that residents are receiving calls notifying them that they have warrants for their arrest. The caller then tries to obtain a payment.
According to a recent Facebook post from Uinta County Law Enforcement Services, “the person is identifying themselves as a local officer, using the names of some of our real officers, attempting to get payment for the warrant over the phone.”
“We would like to remind everyone we do not notify of warrants over the phone and never request, demand or receive payment for the warrant over the phone,” the post states.
