Scammers targeted girl scouts who were selling cookies as a place to unload their counterfeit bills. They used 50 dollar fake bills and asked for change when only buying one box.
Time is running out to get your ration of Girl Scout cookies for 2016. If you don't know any Girl Scouts, it might be a pain to get some, unless you use this handy tool.
The cookie program is put on to show Girl Scouts the ropes of selling, entrepreneurship and essential life skills, but they are only available for a short time.
