An Iowa man was arrested after police allegedly found meth on him when he attempted to deposit a million-dollar bill.
Dennis Strickland's get rich quick scheme was busted after he allegedly tried to deposit an unusually large bill at a bank in Sioux City, Iowa, on Thursday.
The 33-year-old was arrested after police were called to the scene over the suspicious transaction.
When officers asked if he had any more of the bills in his pocket, Strickland pulled out a baggie of meth instead, police said.
Strickland allegedly attempted to become a millionaire at Northwest Bank on West 7th Street in Sioux City.
A bank teller alerted police over the transaction because Strickland never had more than $500 in his account at a time, reported Kelo Land.
The deposit was also suspicious because the United States Treasury has never printed such a bill.

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“The 33-year-old was arrested after police were called to the scene over the suspicious transaction.”
Those Iowa bank tellers are sharp.
“A teller was suspicious because he never had more than $500 in his account”
You got to get up really early to fool that bank teller.
What, exactly, is the NBL?
I asked for cash back at Walmart and they gave me one of those funny-money looking Ben Franklin bills with a blue strip down the middle.
Wanting to break it, I bought a bag of oranges.
The checker held it up, examined it closely and asked me where I got it. I told her I got it at their pharmacy.
Then she short-changed me. Sheeeeittttt!
He already had that in his pocket. Should've kept it there and went back to work on the second million.
One picture, a thousand words. I will refrain from the remaining 995.
It must be hard to keep your wits about you when always between being high and being desperate for getting the next drug high.
Aw crud. I just got 35 of those from some guy in Nigeria.
I helped him sneak them out and he said I could keep 35 of them.
Not sure why he needed my social security number, bank routing number, account number, mother’s maiden name and the debit card PIN.
But I figure it’s all good. He said he used to work for the Keating Five. Sounded legit.
Is that Maxine Waters?

You don’t have to die to get the Darwin Award, although that is the most common method. As long as you remove your ability to reproduce, you can qualify.
He probably went to a teller who he thought was a fellow descendant of slaves...figured he’d get some reparations.
Meth is a WHITE MANS DRUG, especially Southern rural white men.
It's Sioux City... Rockford, Freeport, Dubuque, Waterloo and Fort Dodge all get their deliveries before Sue gets what's coming to her. All the good s#!t be gone by then.
That, and if I’m not mistaken, simply being in possession of a $1M bill is rasis.
Looks like a million dollars to me.
The one million dollar bill wasn't illegal currency. It was just undocumented.
