Fake R10k note has South Africans in stitches
Updated | By Stacey and J Sbu
Imagine a world where we could use a R10,000 note. What would be your first purchase?

A hilarious viral TikTok video has left South Africans questioning the authenticity of a rather... creative R10,000 note.
The eight-second clip shows a note that looks suspiciously like an R200 note, except for the rather optimistic R10,000 printed on it.
The video has brought out the best of South African humour, with people sharing their own hilarious reactions and jokes.
From "Which one is this one?" to people quoting the famous TikTok sound "It’s giving Zimbabwe", the comments are pure gold.
