I made the same mistake at the airport this summer. Defenately Rp.100.000 bills looks like Rp.10.000. The only thing was, they werent honest to give back the money, but smiled like winning a lotery. What worst was that they were employees of the airport who were eager to helped me pushed luggages to the waiting taxi. These people were Baliness unmistakenly. My point is perhaps we are the ones who need to be more careful with our money and belongings, and not judge them because of their racial origin. Just in case you'll want to know how much I tipped those guys in the airport, they were Rp.300.000 supposedly Rp.30.000. So much for that. I am not bitter tho, but I learned from it.
