I do n’t know how they did it , but an eagle - eyed Walmart cashier in Lexington , Kentucky North Carolina somehow manage to baffle Michael Anthony Fuller ’s attempt to pay for a purchase with a$1 million billhe made .
Maybe he did n’t get the watermarks exactly right ? And it ’s not like Fuller attempted to buy a million dollar bill worth of merchandise . Instead , he get down to the checkout with a vacuum , a microwave oven , and a few other items totaling just $ 476 .
The storage foretell the police , and later Fuller was charge with two felonies : attempting to find holding by mistaken pretense , and verbalise a devise instrumental role . obscure to him , in 1969 the US political science had cease the $ 500 , $ 1,000 , $ 5,000 , and $ 10,000 bills . And the turgid bill ever bring on was a $ 100,000 banker’s bill used by Federal Reserve Banks .
So maybe if he had instead endeavor to make up with a homemade $ 1 million Walmart endowment card he would have gotten away with his cozenage . [ Winston - Salem JournalviaStuff ]
