The fraudulent cash was recovered by Gardaí during a search yesterday.

In a post on social media, Gardaí said that “following reports of fake notes being tendered in the area recently”, Gardaí in Mallow carried out a search and recovered a “large quantity of fake money”.

“Businesses are advised to be vigilant as some of these notes may still be in circulation,” Gardaí said.
