ROFLMAO! Charles Ray Fuller Tries To Pass Check For $360 Billion In Fort Worth, Texas

And he's not even from Nigeria. Or Zimbabwe (where $360 billion buys you a loaf of bread).

Charles Ray Fuller, 21, of Crowley, Texas was arrested on April 22nd, 2008 for attempting to pass a $360 billion check, which he claims was given to him by his girlfriend’s mother to start a record business. Story from Dallas Morning News via Stormfront, as well as the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and KXAS Channel 5 Dallas-Ft. Worth. Also discussed on the Vanguard News Network Forum.

Police responded to a report of a man attempting to pass the check about 4 P.M. that day at the Chase bank in the 8600 block of South Hulen Street. The personal check for $360 billion was made out to "Fulla Comp and Entertainment", and when the bank contacted the check owner, Paula Prettyman, Paula said it was stolen. Paula is the mother of Andrea Greer, who has been Fuller's girlfriend.

In addition to be charged with forgery, Fuller was also accused of unlawful carrying of a weapon and possession of marijuana. He may also face a theft charge in Crowley. He has since made bail for $3,750. Cash only, I presume.

According to Naive Jim's blog, had Fuller been able to pull this off, Fuller would have become...

- Roughly six times richer than the world's richest man, presently Warren Buffet (worth $62 bill.) [Forbes]
- The country with the 31st largest GDP in the world, were he a country. [CIA world factbook]
- Richer than the combined GDP of the lowest 95 countries in the world. [Factbook]
- The owner of the fifth most valuable company in the world (Not bad for a startup record business.) [NY Times]

Instead, he became...Texas's Dumbest Criminal.

Good God! How stupid can you get?
