There is more potential for misuse than the well-intentioned good use. When a counterfeit has the likeness of a legal tender, it is hard to check where transactions (like donations) are done en massé.
Edit: This comment is about the general likeness, where counterfeit can be mixed with regular notes. Guys, stop getting touchy about your currency & downvoting without a reason.
- mohanmcgeek 5y agoThis looks nothing like the real tender for one, even from one side. This is from 2010-2012, when large scams mobilized common people against corruption in India.
- srvmshr 5y agoI haven't seen one but The Guardian's reporting does not agree with your abject dismissal: > They look a lot like the 50-rupee notes: They carry a picture of Gandhi and are a similar colour. FWIW if these need a moment of inspection, I would still say mixing such in a stack/pile of notes - typical of charities and donations - is still a vile act thats easy to pull. Technically, the ZR note becomes an instrument for siphoning or fraud. Wherever loose money is collected in large quantities & sorted manually, money counters dont spend inordinate times to sift currencies. They are sorted by color. e.g. in major temples & churches. Places where petty stealing is also prevalent. Be tolerant of counter views if they don't agree with yours.
