You gotta give 21-year-old Charles Ray Fuller of Fort Worth, Texas his props. I mean, if you're going to try and pull a scam, why not go BIG?
Fuller decided to walk into a Forth Worth bank, but, what he did next should go down in the annuls of stupid criminal history. He handed one of the tellers a $360 billion check. According to bank employees, the nervy dude informed them that the check had been given to him by his sweetheart's mom, so he could have his very own record company.
Trouble started, though, when the tellers' red flags went up about the authenticity of so huge a check and, sure enough, after contacting the alleged source of the
larger-than-life check, they found that she had never given her daughter's boyfriend any such check to cash.
Either this guy was incredibly dumb or thought bank tellers had low I.Q.'s, because why else would he have actually thought that he could breeze right into a bank and have a $360 billion check get cashed, without it being questioned??
As expected, the Fort Worth cops were called and Fuller was promptly arrested for forgery.
I know they think big in Texas...BUT DANG!!!
