Four stores at West Park Mall accepted counterfeit bills Wednesday.
Finish Line, Macy's, Lids and Champs accepted counterfeit $10 and $20 bills in exchange for merchandise Wednesday, Cape Girardeau police spokesman Darin Hickey said.
Police are looking for two young males, Hickey said. No arrests have been made.
To determine whether bills are counterfeit, cashiers should look to see if the print is squarely on the bill, check for watermarks and closely examine the color of the bill, Hickey said.
Pertinent address:
3049 William St. Cape Girardeau, MO.
