Read full article: Michigan man accused of counterfeiting $100 billsPORT HURON, Mich. A Michigan man is accused of turning $1 bills into $100 bills. Benigno Santana, 47, was just released from prison in March for controlled substance violation and operating an illegal lab. The complaint against him alleges that he was bleaching $1 bills and reprinting them to be $100. What tipped off federal authorities was that when they examined the counterfeit $100 bills, the $1 on the upper right corner of the genuine dollar bill was still visible. He is expected to be arraigned on a secret service criminal complaint at a later date.
