[Sir Gawain]

How can it be a fake if the original never existed?

[goldstategop]

A counterfeit billionaire.

You only have to spend it once.

"Uhhh...I need change for a billion please......"

[TexasTransplant]

Does it have a picture of Hildebeast on one side and Soros on the reverse? (If it doesn't it's a fake, I have a wallet full of them but have yet to find a Convenience Store that can make change)

It's a damn good thing FDR didn't have 250 Billion he could get his hands on in 1934

[decal]

"I met a man who claimed he was a billionnaire.

"I said,'Oh, yeah? Prove it.'

"He pulled out two half-billion dollar bills out of his wallet.

"They had pictures of Bert Convy on them."

This is similar to the bad counterfeiters who accidentally made $18 bills. Figuring that people in the south were not too bright, they came to a country store here in Siler City to pass them.
"Hey pal," one of them asked, "Can you change an $18?"
"Sure," came the reply. "How do you want it? Two nines, or three sixes?"

[beezdotcom]

I hope nobody arrests me...I have a green piece of paper that say "One kajillion bazillion dollars." (Interestingly enough, it has Hillary's picture on it.)

[Petronski]

With a plan like that, he might have stolen eleventy BILLION dollars!

[2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten]

One Billion dollars! 

[ConservativeMind]

I don't see the crime here at all.

What if someone wanted to make fake bills in the amount of $16.71 and put the image of the Mad magazine boy in the middle of the front? That can't be illegal, either.

I remember purchasing $3 bills as a joke bill in my youth. Everyone knew they were fake, but they were funny. I didn't realize they were somehow illegal.

That is totally bogus.

Tekle Zigetta

He even sounds as queer as a billion dollar bill.

[TFFKAMM]

Here's a tale of equally absurd phony Euro notes actually being accepted!

[expatpat]

Billion-dollar banknotes? Where was he going to use them -- the local 7-11?

[martin_fierro]

"A billion is a substantial number, we want to ensure that no one was duped or fleeced by the passing of these documents," Kice said.

Better inquire down at the local 7-11.

[paul51]

Federal authorities investigating a man who smuggled money into the country have seized 250 counterfeit bank notes in billion-dollar denominations

Well, the guy thinks big anyhow.

[JOAT]

"failure to declare more than $10,000 in cash"

Having $9,999 in my wallet is my business, but that extra buck makes it a CRIME not to divulge the info to a government employee.

Inventing 'crimes' where there is no crime.
