    People are fucking dumb. It's hard to believe but I would not be shocked if his friend really did send some sort of account information to this goon. I'd hate to say it but your friend deserves every bad thing that comes from this.

    That bitch just got Charles'd.

    Technically it's not Darwinism unless he kills himself no? Since losing all your money or being dumb doesn't really count as eliminating yourself from the gene pool.

    On second thought, those 3000 bills are enough to star in a T Pain video. You pretty much have all the props. Just need some sunglasses and a boat. Hell with all that money you just buy the boat yourself.

    No it wasn't. It was used specifically for transfers between banks, it's actually illegal for a $100k bill to be in private ownership.

    Edit - Here's the link on that for anyone who cares. http://www.moneyfactory.gov/document.cfm/5/42/1359

    Fixed that for you. According to the wiki linked above at least. The government decriminalized ownership of those gold notes so that private collectors could have them. If it is the 100k gold note it has no face value anymore and is not recognized currency however it has intrinsic value to collectors obviously.

    So, to summarize this, people with 2000+ post count are as gullible as people with low post count?

    If you look at the link I just posted the Bureau of Engraving and Printing says that it is still illegal to own a $100k note.

    You edited in that link after I replied I couldn't have known that you were going to post it. I am mistaken. Like I said in my post I was just going by the wiki page and it said all gold notes were decriminalized but I guess not the 100k note.

    Sorry, didn't mean to come off as all Internet Tuff Guy. I read the part in the wiki where it said it had been decriminalized and thought I better back up my post. Unfortunately you beat my edit. Mea Culpa
