Before withdrawing cash from an ATM, check for security features on the notes such as watermarks, security threads, and color-shifting ink.
If you have received fake notes from an ATM, look for distinguishing features such as missing security threads, unclear printing, and incorrect colors.
Contact your bank's customer care helpline or visit the nearest branch to inform them of the fake notes received.
You can file a complaint with the police to avoid any legal complications in the future.
Do not return the fake notes to the ATM or to any other person as it is a punishable offense.
Retain the transaction receipt as proof of withdrawal from the ATM.
Be cautious while using an ATM and do not share your PIN with anyone.
