Who could have thought a bank ATM could also give you a fake note? At least, I have never given that a thought until it happened today. A Pan-African bank machine dispensed a fake note to me and I didn't realise this until a couple of hours when I went for a deposit at a GTB ATM station. The two machines I tried for the deposit declined the particular note while the first accepted the other notes for deposit. When I went back to the bank where I made the withdrawal, I was able to get them to confirm if it was fake or not and the reply was affirmative. And of course, they denied it was their machine that dispensed the note.

I was grateful it was just one of 40 notes and that the note wasn't among the money I had deposited minutes earlier in a UBA banking hall, where I saw a note about to be deposited by someone perforated by one of the tellers.

Ofcourse what do you expect this is Nigeria. You have to count the money before leaving the ATM sef. Even the machines aren't trusted in Nigeria

I used to count before o. But I had to stop doing that since I never had issues of incomplete notes and I was starting to look funny doing so. The fake note, to me, cannot be attributed to the machine; I see the action of a bank that's trying to cut its loss.

Wassup U1,
