A man has been accused of attempting to pass a $360 billion check, which he claims was given to him by his girlfriend’s mother to start a record business, Fort Worth police said.

Charles Ray Fuller, 21, of Crowley, was arrested on April 22 on an accusation of forgery, police said.

Police responded to a report of a man attempting to pass the check about 4 p.m. that day at the Chase bank in the 8600 block of South Hulen Street, Fort Worth police Lt. Paul Henderson said.

The personal check was not made out to Mr. Fuller and when the bank contacted the check owner, the woman said she did not write a check for $360 billion.

7. No, no, that's the brilliance of 36 billion!

It's such a hugh number, it MUST be a real check. Because nobody would write a fake check for $36,000,000,000.

but not that high. Or while you're high.

9. You saw the pot reference, did you?

I was going to comment on that, but didn't want to offend anyone. ;-)

13. There are LOTS of fellow Texans who are embarrassed and

ashamed that this act took place in the state of Texas.

14. You have to wonder how he came up with

that number.

"Should I write 400 billion? Nah, that's too high - they'll get suspicious. 300 billion? Nope, not enough for a really bitchin' record company. 360 sounds right."
