Abstract
A method and system for accepting money items. The method for accepting money items comprises generating a money item signal that corresponds to a money item under test, determining a level of risk of a fraud attempt, and determining a fraud attempt based on the level of risk.

The method further comprises comparing the transformed money signal to window limit values to generate a result and accepting or rejecting the money item based on the result.
