The Shelbyville Police Department is warning residents about counterfeit money being spread around the community. Shelbyville Police Cheif Dave Tallman says three businesses and one individual have all received a fake hundred dollar bill in recent weeks.

Tallman says the bills being used are intended to be movie props.

The counterfeit bills are only a piece of what Tallman says has been a nationwide problem.

Tallman says if you receive one of these counterfeits, try to remember as much as you can about who gave it to you and call your local police department.
