FORT WORTH -- An aspiring record label owner is singing the blues
after he was arrested last week for allegedly trying to pass a $360
billion check at a Fort Worth bank.

Employees at the Chase Bank at 8601 S. Hulen St. grew suspicious after
seeing all those zeroes (10 to be exact) and called the check's owner.
The woman said the suspect, Charles Ray Fuller, 21, of Crowley, is her
daughter’s boyfriend and that he did not have permission to take the
check or cash it.

They do ask for ID when you try to cash checks over say 5 bucks.
Wonder what this guy was thinking? What a moron.

well the rest of the news is: you cant pass a billion dollar check.
There is no such thing as a billion dollar check. There are no checks for amounts over ???? dollars.
Only a bank transfer
will accomplish the task of transferring large amounts of money
like that and even then the amounts are usually broken down into staged transfers. The limit is
somewhere in the millions.

That mushroom was going to get questined and caught even
on a $5 five dollar check, in any event. The moron would have
done better just asking for $5 dollars! Some people never learn.
