I found a $100 stuck in my radiator grill yesterday. The way the car is made is you can see the radiator or part of it from the front of the car.
Anyway, I stopped at Office Depot and decided to break the $100, the lady used a counterfeit pen and you guessed It.
I lol’d and explained that I found it, she wasn’t amused.
It made me pause thinking that someone must’ve crammed it in there as a joke.
Happy Sunday fellas.

Good thinking to make this thread to cover your tracks for when the Secret Service or FBI come knocking

So you had no idea it was counterfeit or you suspected it may be? How good was the counterfeit?

I didn’t really look at the bill until the clerk handed it back to me. It had a pink dot on it.
The texture and paper felt real.

“Ah shucks! Sorry I almost passed on a counterfeit bill that I found stuck in my car grill of all places. Woopsie! Surely you believe my story right? I mean it makes so much sense.”

I don’t care what a store clerk in Office Depot thinks.

You’re lucky you aren’t getting a visit from your sherif or the secret service right now. Dude I know had a similar story and had lots of complications that required a lawyer.

I used to have a grand plan that I was going to create counterfeit 20’s to use at things like concerts and festivals. I could always say I found them. Use a new $20 every time and keep the change. It seemed like the perfect place to do it. Untraceable and the people working probably didn’t really give a shite and was just stuffing money in a drawer. Use different vendors so I wouldn’t really be fricking anyone out of any more than $20. Easy on the conscience. It never made it past the idea stage of development though.

Idiot. You would Have to prove that I knowingly try to pass the $100 as real.

“In order to convict a defendant of this crime, the prosecutor must prove that the defendant acted with criminal intent. In the context of charges stemming from the alleged use of counterfeit currency, the prosecutor must prove that the defendant acted with the intent to defraud.

Criminal intent can be proved by direct evidence, such as a defendant's confession that he meant to defraud the victim. But more often, it is proved using circumstantial evidence. The law allows a jury (or judge, if the defendant chooses to have a trial without a jury) to make reasonable inferences from circumstantial evidence presented at trial. Circumstantial evidence is evidence that allows the jury or judge to make an inference in order to determine the existence of a fact.

The jury or judge may, for example, infer that the defendant intended to defraud a retailer if the prosecutor presents evidence that the defendant wore a disguise when paying for merchandise. The prosecutor would argue that the jury or judge should infer from the circumstantial evidence (the defendant’s disguise) that the defendant was attempting to hide his identity because he was attempting to defraud the retailer by passing counterfeit cash“
