In a bizzare incident, a State Bank of India ATM in South Delhi dispensed fake Rs 2,000 notes with 'Children Bank of India' written on them instead of Reserve Bank of India. The notes, which were replete with errors, had serial number of '000000'.

Fake note

The notes appeared to have been printed for a prank, but how it made into the bank's system is yet to be found. The incident came to light on February 6 when a person withdrawing cash from Sangam Vihar ATM noticed the errors and immediately brought it to police's notice.

Other glaring deviations from the original note include a 'PK logo' instead of RBI seal and the missing Rupee symbol.

What is more hilarious is that leaf markings on the lower left side of the original has been replaced by text 'CHURAN LABEL'. Even the GOI's Ashok emblem is replaced by 'CHURAN LABEL'.

The RBI governor's signature is also missing and the text above it says, "I promise to pay the bearer two thousands coupens."

Sangam Vihar police station has booked case under IPC sections 489-b, 489-e and 420.

SBI has reportedly said that they have constituted a team to investigate the matter.
