(Lawrenceburg, Ind.) - Phony money is circulating in Lawrenceburg.

Lawrenceburg Police announced on Christmas Day that they have encountered counterfeit $100 bills in a number of places, on a number of different people and that multiple people have been victims of the bills being used.

Police say the bills feel more like paper than actual money and have some form of Asian symbols or writing on them.

On an unrelated note, Lawrenceburg Police also released a photo of a man rummaging through an unlocked car.
