Title: Bank of England/Stained notes from Bank Robbery Ink Packs
Post by: Canadian Bill on March 04, 2023, 10:23:16 pm
I found this a little interesting/humorous on the Bank of England website ...

"Dye-Stained Banknotes

We work with the cash industry to encourage the use of dye-staining devices in cash boxes. These devices permanently stain banknotes during robberies, so stolen banknotes are much easier to spot.

If you are offered a dye-stained banknote, we advise you to refuse it. This prevents stolen cash from going into circulation, which acts as a deterrent to criminals and stops them profiting from crime." 

Do we have this in Canada?????
