WIVB reports that the cashier said the bill felt inauthentic before noticing the text, which indicated that it was prop money.
Local police and U.S. Secret Service were notified of the incident, and police said Fox was charged with possession of a forged instrument, then arraigned and released on her own recognizance.
Cheektowaga Police warned local business to carefully inspect high-value bills and noted that prop bills should feature markings noting their counterfeit status.
