Counterfeit bills floating around Unalaska

According to KUCB-FM (via APRN), "an unusual amount" of counterfeit cash is circulating around Unalaska/Dutch Harbor. Just last week, two fake $100's and two fake $20's were found by a local bank, and businesses and residents are keeping a close eye out for more. The fakes are reportedly "very good," and given the unusual volume, the Secret Service may send someone to investigate. At this time it's not clear whether the fakes have made it anywhere beyond Unalaska Island. Listen to much, much more, here.
