What would YOU do with $2.5 trillion?
I can’t remember hearing anything about this at the time, but it appears that a man was arrested in 2001 for taking part in the largest attempted scam ever. It involved counterfeit US Treasury bonds, and the man and his associates were apparently going to try to pocket $2.5 trillion! Here I am, trying not to spend a single pound I don’t need to, and this guy was going to have more money than the entire world’s gold reserves.
Asshole.
