As "Allie" pointed out, this happens way too much in the State of Hawaii.
My First and only question is: How much jail time is given to these offenders?
If it is small jail time, then this is a big reason why there is no Deterremt!
Last time I checked, Counterfeiting and/or the passing of "phony bills" is a Federal offense.
Which brings, and should bring, a significant jail sentence!!!
