Just out of curiosity, how would you know if you had seen counterfeit money?

  That's a good point. I should say I've only seen the "low quality" counterfeit money once. The one I saw had similar texture as real money, but the paper was either thinner or thicker than the real one. I can't remember the details since it happened years ago.

  You can crinkle the paper money in your fingers. Real money makes a unique sound. It is perfectly acceptable to test the money in front of the person you got it from. I had to use cash instead of WeChat a few times and the vendor also did this as a test.

  There is a metal strip in the real 100 RMB notes that most of the copies don't have.
