The article presents a vision of the development of the institution of criminal-legal counteraction to illegal circulation of means of payment, as the most common tool for cashing out funds obtained by criminal means. Attention is drawn to the characteristics of counterfeit and counterfeit payment documents. It is noted that the legal protection authorities equate counterfeit and illegality, despite the fact that the second term is etymologically interpreted much broader. An approach has been substantiated on the advisability of recognizing the creation of fake payment orders not on the basis of the inaccuracy of information that is entered in payment documents and contradictions in relations that occur in reality, but on the basis of distortion of the will of the person who has the authority to dispose of funds.
