The fake notes of new currency were already in the market and using the same, school students in Madhya Pradesh, managed to cheat a milk parlor operator.

The kids who were on their way to school, stopped at the shop of Gopalkrishna Yadav at 6am on Thursday and purchased milk products worth Rs. 200, with the photocopied note of Rs 2000 and walked away with Rs. 1800 change.

The shop owner became suspicious in the afternoon and went to a bank branch, where the officials revealed the actual fact. Yadav then lodged a complaint with the Kotwali police.

Inspector Verma said the victim could not identify the perpetrators, but claimed that there were four children with school bags on their shoulders. "We have taken up the matter for investigation. No case was registered as legally, one requires at least 5 fake currency notes to proceed with a case of counterfeiting," Verma added.
