1 Million Dollar Bill?

[Bobby]

A bank teller had a million reasons to deny this transaction.
Police say a man tried to open an account with a $1 million bill, which does not exist. The teller refused and called police while the man started to curse at bank workers, said Aiken County Sheriff's spokesman Lt. Michael Frank. Alexander D. Smith, 31, of Augusta, Ga., was charged with disorderly conduct and two counts of forgery, Frank said.
The second forgery charge came after investigators learned Smith bought several cartons of cigarettes from a nearby grocery store with a stolen check, Frank said.
Smith has a bail hearing scheduled Wednesday, but Deputy Angela Shunn of the Aiken County Detention Center did not know if he had an attorney. An off-hours call to the public defender's office went unanswered.

^^ QFT.

What an idiot.. bankers are trained to notice counterfeits... Did he really think he could sneak a one million dollar bill past them?

[Serenity]

I'm assuming he thought the ridiculously high number would be so impressive that no one would question it. Lol which was freaking stupid.

[Underground_Network]

I'm assuming if you asked him his IQ he would say he doesn't have any IQ's.
