Guy uses fake check to steal Massey tractor...recognize him?

[newbury]

WHAT?

He did write he worked with lead for a long time.

Had a friend that was given a wad of fake bills with real ones on top and bottom. Just before he signed the title he decided to count the money and found fake bills. Beware, treat everyone as a thief unfortunately.

Trust but verify.


I ran across the problem of not able to pay cash when we went to buy my wife's 2004 Civic. I wanted to pay cash, the dealership set up a big fuss and said the laws wouldn't let them.
I also had a near problem taking "cash" out of the country.
I was on my way to Korea in support of a military exercise, circa 1990. I got stopped on the runway to the shuttle bus in LA. A Fed, Customs if IIRC, wanted to know how much money I had on me. Now I'm not accustomed to lying so I told him I didn't know. But I knew it was a lot because I was going to be staying in Korea for almost two months and my travel office had issued me travelers checks for the entire trip, and the daily per diem rate was like $100. Plus I had been saving for months to buy stuff, like brass beds, suits etc.
Anyways he made me go through all my belongings pulling out American Express Travellers checks. IIRC I came up with about $9K. He read me a riot act lecture about not travelling with that much cash, but it was under the 10K limit.

The crook had an accomplice that stole the PTO out of a tractor a couple of years ago. Ed’s is about 20 miles from me.

I searched for about 20 minutes online, found nothing related to what you said. Did find a trucker who had $39500 seized at a Phoenix airport during a bag search.
Please, please post a link to the article where it said police used a "scanner" to seize cash.

really getting a kick out of this thread

Lately, or years ago?

The cops dont need RFID scanners. They only need to monitor social media

Surprised you guys can still use cheques banks here have stopped issuing or accepting cheques here (New Zealand ) quite some time ago everything done via internet banking these days. I can pay up to $500k instantly as as long as i use cleared funds it is instantly cleared at the end so much easier than mucking about with banks cheques or cash most New Zealanders never use any cash at all these days and wouldn't recognize counterfeit cash if they given it

Just copy and post the title of the article you're reading. Anyone could find it from that.

Better, copy the URL you see in your browser above the article and put it in your post here. That makes a clickable link.
