President? Clinton? That's A Fake Dollar Bill

Hubba Bubba, It's Counterfeit Money

Arkansas police instantly knew this Bill wasn't authentic. A man has been arrested for trying to use a fake $100 bill, reports metro.co.uk. How did they know? Well, it wasn't that difficult to tell. To start with, the note bore smudged ink. Clue number two: there was no president's portrait. And as if that wasn't a giveaway, there was even a third clue. The note had the name of Bill Clinton, former resident of the White House and too recent a Chief Executive to actually have his visage on any legal US tender. The man who tried passing off the counterfeit money was arrested after trying to use the bill to buy cigarettes at a service station. ``Of all the cases I've worked with phony money, this is the sorriest bill I've ever seen,'' Lt Brenda Bittle said.
