Fake surveillance cameras are often a good way to deter thieves without the expense of a real surveillance system. Unless a real surveillance system is required for your particular business by local or state law, fake cameras are completely legal. (Even if your business is required to have a real surveillance system, you can probably have fake cameras in addition to the real ones. However, you would have to read your city or state's law.)

Is it legal to post a sign stating there are security cameras when there are none?

It is legal, but it is not wise. If you post such signs, and a crime is committed that the cameras should have detected, you can be held liable, in that the victim had valid reason to believe cameras were in existence. Also, I would add that, if you posted the signs, it shows that YOU believe that the area in question is dangerous enough to require camera surveilance. Not having cameras where you know they're required can be construed as negligence.
