Fall is here and the busy holiday season will soon be upon us. Remember to take a moment to authenticate questionable cash received during the holiday season. Counterfeiters strike when retail businesses are busy and crowded with customers.
OfficeMax, the strategic partner for office supplies of the Eastern Services Category Management Center (CMC) — Windsor, has the solution in its eBuy catalog: The Counterfeit Detection System (item number A41620400) activates ultraviolet (UV) ink found on U.S. currency, credit cards, drivers’ licenses, travelers’ checks, money orders, and other UV impregnated items.
The units are easy to use and provide a quick answer about the credibility of the item in seconds. Remember to follow the guidelines in Publication 348, Window Services Crime Prevention Booklet, when confronted with suspicious currency. You can find that booklet at http://blue.usps.gov/cpim/ftp/pubs/pub348.pdf.
Counterfeit Detector Systems are in stock for next-day delivery, and are only $31.95 each. Use item number A41620400 in the eBuy OfficeMax catalog.
