cromodora Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 What an Idiot all that trouble and risk for just 300 bucks. Dont think that he is much of a brainer. I like @Craytonic idea,maybe you should give it a try! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like @Craytonic idea,maybe you should give it a try! Idiot? He was smarter than you think. He is probably well versed in his deceit. He probably knows that law enforcement isn't interested in small "hits" so, he makes many and spreads them to avoid further attention. It's pretty darn sad that honest citizens have little or no protection from law enforcement. I sit in amazement as I see the foundation of this great country crack and crumble.

MechWatch Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 Sorry to hear about the rip-off. Thanks for sharing your experience. I heard of washing checks (use gel pens the ink won't wash off), but not real currency. It's an eye operer. I have been ripped off by getting change that actually had the 5 dolllar bill corners (showing 5) pasted on a dollar bill, but nothing high tech like above or maybe it went thru me without me knowing.
