Scam alert!
Fresh from mbl.is:
Paid with a bill with Davíð on it
Police in the Greater Reykjavík Area are now investigating a unique case of counterfeiting. A man walked into a convenience store on Monday and paid for his purchases using a ten thousand króna bill. On the bill was a picture of Central Bank of Iceland Governer Davíð Oddsson.
Staff at the shop paid no better attention than to give the man change for the bill, just under seven thousand króna. The police now has possession of the bill, along with footage from the store's security camera. Finding the counterfeiter should therefore be easy.
Afgreiðslufólk verslunarinnar var ekki betur vakandi en svo að það gaf manninum til baka, tæpar sjö þúsund krónur. Lögregla hefur nú fengið seðilinn í hendur ásamt upptöku úr öryggismyndavél verslunarinnar. Leiðin að falsaranum ætti því að vera greið.
The police iterates that no ten thousand króna bills have been printed in Iceland. The police cautions staff at shops to be on the look-out.

Hmmmmm... where is that 1,000,000 króna bill with Putin on it that was circulating the Internet the other day?
