Default Re: OT: Unbelievable but true...

First off guys, it is illegal for a them to threaten calling the police over someone not paying a bill. He can sue on that basis alone. Secondly, the store supervisor or manager, or any one over the age of 21 in that store personal would know. I simply do not believe or will buy into this fabracation.

I worked retail for 10 years and NEVER ONCE, did any one refuse to accept a $2.00 bill. $3.00 bills yes, with Clintons face on them, but never a $2.00 bill especially if the numbers were sequential.

Unless Best Buy hired complete back water dumbasses with no education at all, or shallow teenage girls who know more about a cell phone than they do about a conventional phone, would it even be remotely a possiblity.

Last, if this did indeed happen, then Best Buy is looking at one hell of a law suit, three fold, first for threatening him, second for the unlawful detainer, and last but not least, defimation / humilation.

Oh ya and any legal fees he has incurred.

If he was arrested and trust me, they DO TEST the bills with a marker pen to see if they are fake, then he can sue the city for unlawful arrest and imprisenment.

I simply refuse to believe that there are people out there who are this stupid. Again they TEST the bills with a marker pen at the check stand, and a simple call to the bank, any bank, with the serial numbers of the bills would confirm where they were issued.

If this story is true, then I this guy would have to be incredibly dumb not to sue both best buy and the city over what happened. And yes, in this case a lawsuit would be warrented.
