The fact that some embecile tried to deposit one is a reflection on the lack of intelligence by an individual, not of any attempt by Ray and his ministry to defraud anyone.
Here is the front of the new tract:
I personally have a hard time believing that there is a legitimate threat from these tracts. THe only way someone could possibly be defrauded with these is if there is a collusion between the presenter and the employee of whatever business accepts it.... as what sort of idiot would think such a bill existed? Further - any bank employee who would fall for it isn't really falling for it, but is in on a fraud.
I can't help but think this is just a case of someone in power wanting to dust off the old jackboots.....
In a nut shell!
The Secret Service should have much better things to worry about. It doesn't even look like a real bill plus those real bills don't even exist.
It reminds me of the ATF going after gun show promoters. What a waste of the taxpayers money!
Go after the real criminals, Secret Service!!
Good for the USSS!
Ray Comfort is a nutty, low-cal version of Jack Chick...and as insanely anti-Catholic as Chick is. I'm glad to see my tax dollars at work.
Tried to deposit it? Not only are they clueless but talk about greed. My understanding is that notes like that are not allowed to circulate but are for bank use only.
One born every minute....
Shore is purty, nonetheless.
Nicely designed too. Could it be the use of a real president was what tripped their trigger? What are the rules on that anyway?
Two years ago, a woman in North Carolina tried to pass one of those million dollar bills in a local Wal-Mart. She bought about $1k of merchandise and expected $999K in change. The store manager (unusually alert, and showing above-average intelligence for a MASCAR devotee) called the cops, and the whole shebang was quite the cause celebre.
Looks more authentic than this. Ever. Will.
Excuse me, that was supposed to be NASCAR. No coffee yet this morning...
Can you post a picture of that,say errrrr wallet size?
Ray Should find "Comfort" in the fact
that his tracts are getting national free publicity
Exactly what is the average intelligence of a NASCAR devotee?
Rather than being concerned about Gospel tracts, shouldn't the Secret Service be going after that NY Democrat politician who advocated putting a bullet between Bush's eyes?
I am certainly relieved to know that my country's bureaucracy is looking out for our financial welfare and putting a stop to this terrorism/fraud! May the SS and the Homeland Security continue to reign supreme and tuck my blanket in nicely around me!
Okay, sarcasm button turned off and removed now.
Cosidering NY city folk are crying for more 'security' money, maybe the SS should forward all these tracts to them!
Just don't ever expect any thanx from them.
Yes, like going after the NY pol that said NY SEN. Schmuckie would like to put a bullet between my President's eyes.
Is this SS jurisdiction?
Just ask for a $1000 and tell them to keep the change. ;^)
