FORT WORTH, Texas - Charles Ray Fuller must have been planning one big record company. The 21-year-old North Texas man was arrested last week for trying to cash a $360 billion check, saying he wanted to start a record business. Tellers at the Fort Worth bank were immediately suspicious — perhaps the 10 zeros on a personal check tipped them off.

Fuller, of suburban Crowley, was arrested on a forgery charge. He was released after posting $3,750 bail.

Fuller said his girlfriend's mother gave him the check to start a record business. But bank employees who contacted the account's owner said the woman told them she did not give him permission to take or cash the check.

In addition to the forgery count, Fuller was charged with unlawfully carrying a weapon and possessing marijuana. Officers reported finding less than two ounces of marijuana and a .25-caliber handgun and magazine in his pockets

Stupid. He must have thought the bank gives away money. Surely he knew his mother didn't have billions of dollars in the bank.

Dumbass. I used to work for a bank and I saw people do many stupid things, but i never realized that someone would be dumb enough to think that you can just walk up and ask for billions of dollars. Wow!

Actually it was his girlfriend's mother, not his mother. Which leads me to wonder if the mother thinks "what is my daughter doing with such a dumba$$?"
