Boardman clerk receives counterfeit bill

BOARDMAN

Police were called to the BP gas station on U.S. Route 224 Thursday night after an attendant received a $50 counterfeit bill a customer tried to use.

When police arrived, the attendant told them a customer tried paying for their fuel with the fake money. The attendant determined the money was fake and told the customer to pay for the gas another way, according to a report.

The customer told police she was unaware the money was fake and explained that she owns an auto-sales company where she receives cash from people all day long.
