Police on Monday tweeted a photo of the front and back of the fake currency, which has the words -- “For Motion Picture Use Only” -- printed on both sides and reportedly was spent by an unidentified man from Montgomery.

"SERIOUSLY....this is the fake $100 dollar bill a suspect passed at a local gas station," South Brunswick police posted on Twitter.

South Brunswick detectives tracked down a 20-year-old Somerset County man who said he was surprised the clerk took the money, police wrote in the tweet. Police did not say whether the man had been charged.
