Fake money in China

I’ve heard so much about them, but finally I found my own counterfeit 50 RMB bill. I’m not exactly sure where it was passed to me, but now its mine. Cabs are supposedly the most common place to find a fake 50 (solution- don’t pay an 11RMB fare with a 100RMB note). The woman at Hello Pizza was the one who rejected it, but she was very helpful in explaining showing me the incorrect aspects, and even offered me some comparison with a real note. Now I can spot fakes on my own. Actually, this one turned out to be a really bad fake. It wasn’t even the proper size! The next question is whether or not to get rid of it…
