told the that two of the $50 notes were counterfeit.
“He gave over a lot of $50 notes and put the two fakes with two real ones altogether.”
“It was too obvious, (the counterfeit note) was shorter and looked fake.”
Ummm… can we just pause to reflect on the fact that Scots College costs $40,000 a year??? Why would students need to (allegedly) use fake money when they’ve got swimming pools full of the real stuff?
According to Cho, one of the boys returned again two days later and attempted to use counterfeit money again.
“This time it was very unprofessional and too obvious. I couldn’t believe they came back again,” he said.
“He cried as one of his friends waited outside.
“We had a very nice customer who asked if we could leave the kid alone … What can you do?”
Sounds to me like a Karen in Double Bay was trying to defend these privileged young kids. Kudos to the store owner for still calling them a “very nice customer”.
After the second alleged attempt at counterfeit money use, Cho posted the CCTV footage onto YouTube, which is how he discovered the kids went to Scots College. I could have told him as much for free.
He claims teachers from the school visited his store in an attempt to “downplay” the incident. In response, he says he told them that he’d be pressing charges. King.
An official statement from Scots College Principal regarding the incident has been released.
“The business owner has been contacted and repaid in full,” Lambert writes.
“The College is cooperating with NSW Police and will continue counselling the student and working with his parents until the incident is fully resolved.
“The College takes the situation extremely seriously and appropriate disciplinary action will be taken once the full facts have been determined.”
