Change for a million?

Police are investigating whether the bogus note was among a batch distributed last year as a publicity stunt by a Dallas-based religious ministry.

What, do these morons think it is some kind of conspiracy? Ummm, people have been using legal immitation $1M notes for advertising for years. I've got one somewhere from something a couple years ago.

As long as such notes are no more than ¾ actual size or at least 1½ actual size, and do not include the "legal tender" notice and a few other details, they break no law.

So much stupidity in the world when one desperately goes to get money the illegal way.

Forgery...
one should think for forgery to apply there should at least exist some real million dollar bill.

Or at least some chance that people might believe that this bill is real.
I mean, handing someone a 1.000.000 dollar bill and convncing him that the note is for real seems to have the same chance as handing someone a 100 $ note with pink bunnies instead of a presidents head on it and convincing him/her that this is one of the new 100 $ notes
On the other hand, people are stupid, I fear there are lots of people who could be convinced of both things

I suspect no one who would fall for a million dollar bill would be able to make change for it.

I saw one of these $1,000,000 bills yesterday taped to the inside of a collections box for some charity at Wendy's. Was fairly convincing except for the fact that such bills aren't really minted.
