Man arrested in Texas for trying to cash $360 billion check


FORT WORTH, Texas - Charles Ray Fuller must have been planning one big record company. The 21-year-old North Texas man was arrested last week for trying to cash a $360 billion check, saying he wanted to start a record business. Tellers at the Fort Worth bank were immediately suspicious — perhaps the 10 zeros on a personal check tipped them off.

Fuller, of suburban Crowley, was arrested on a forgery charge. He was released after posting $3,750 bail.

Fuller said his girlfriend's mother gave him the check to start a record business. But bank employees who contacted the account's owner said the woman told them she did not give him permission to take or cash the check.

In addition to the forgery count, Fuller was charged with unlawfully carrying a weapon and possessing marijuana. Officers reported finding less than two ounces of marijuana and a .25-caliber handgun and magazine in his pockets.

Actually, I think he would need a train. One million dollars weighs right at 20lbs in $100 bills. So you would be looking at around 7,200,000lbs in $100 bills.

 

 

Hmmm............ Did someone say, BILLION??

Isn't that kind of a small gun for a Texan?

.25-caliber? In Texas? Must have spent a lot of time in Oklahomo!

Well, I don't think was fair. Of course the guy needed to carry a gun, he had $360 billion on him!
