Ever have crazy ideas, that put in the right circumstance would be brilliant, but that circumstance will never happen?

If you do, join in.


Crazy idea #1

If I ever want to pass fake currency, first buy a bunch of those "Currency Detector Pens" from Office Depot, that they use at registers to find fake bills. All those pens look the same.

Change out the ink to an ink which will make ALL paper look legitimate. Then find a way to swap those out at registers, one by one over time.

...instant way to pass fake bills, and get real change.


(any other crazy ideas, or am I the only one)

    Hoff, while I find your idea hilarious wouldnt it be much simpler to pass smaller fake bills? I dont think they ever check anything under a 20.

    it also helps to be a middle aged white man :lol:

    stopped a 7-11 and a hispanic guy in front of me uses a 20. clerk checks it.

    i use a 20, clerk just tosses it in the drawer.

    Yeah- just make smaller fake bills like tens or fives. The problem with the pen exhange idea is you now have two opportunities to be caught doing something. One for the pen exchange and one for however many times you pass the bills.

    Think about it all the fixin's injected into a sugary doughnut with cranberry sauce frosting. My buddy and I came up with it one night all drunk.

    I'm sure you guys are (mostly) kidding but I have to speak out on this. Think twice about who you try to pass off phoney money to. I co-own and operate a small business and yes, in many ways I love it, but these days we work very hard to keep our heads above water. The big box stores and super stores (you know who I'm talking about!) are driving small businesses out of the market in droves. Sometimes our customers give us books and do not ask for credit because they're afraid we'll go down like a majority of others have. Most of us small business owners laugh when you mention "retirement". Keith Richards- (I love that guy)- said he will keep working until he croaks and we'd like to think we'll do that too because we love it (and we do) but Keith really does have a choice that way.

    Please, be good to you local independent small businesses. Thanks.

    Me too. We have an independently owned convenient store here that I sometimes go out of the way for just to grabs some beer or cigs. At x-mas time they hand out free tins of cookies and hand written cards to their customers. Gotta love the little guy.

    Agreed. I own a small business too, and even recently chaired a meeting with about 20 other business owners with a Secret Service agent talking about currency fraud. ...so this is strictly a "crazy ideas, never to be used" thread. Just, some are too good not to mention. :D


    Any other crazy ideas?

    Oh, good- thank you for verification!

    I did have one other crazy idea in my younger, more reckless days. My idea was to have what I called "The All-Speed Lane" on freeways. The idea was that the inner lane would be open for driving at any speed only there would be disclaimers written into the laws stating that anyone involved in an accident had no right to any damage or injury claims. Drive as fast as you want at your own risk!

    Idea for a "Jackass" type of thing. Thought of this last week while driving in the middle of the night.

    Buy a VW Bug car in silver. Put huge gray ears on the top, and a big mouse-like tail on the back... and one other "modification". Drive the car on the streets surrounding Disneyworld. Parents will point to the car with their kids, and they'll smile and laugh from the sidewalk... then the "modification" is put to use. The back of the car, where the VW logo should be... instead, the car poops from there. Leaving kids laughing, and parents scrambling for what to say.

    The best part... it's actually candy coming out. :D

    Another crazy idea:

    Send a letter to houses that have football flags hanging on their doors. About 200+ houses. In half the letters write "The Giants will win on Sunday". The other half write "The Steelers will win on Sunday".

    ...now, half of them will be wrong, so those half you never mail to again. The other half mail a letter saying "The Falcons will win on Sunday". The other half write "The Jets will win on Sunday". Again, half will be wrong and never mailed to again, but the other half will be right. ...the people getting the letters that consistently "predict" the winners will think there is something amazing going on, as every letter they get predicts the winner. You keep going until you're only mailing to a handful of the original people, but those people you have always gotten it right, so they now eagerly await your letter.

    Finally around superbowl time you write a letter saying "For the winner of the Super Bowl, mail $5,000 cash to PO Box XXXXX".

    Of course, a few fall for it. Half of them will place bets based on your prediction, and again half will be wrong.


    ....not my scam though. I saw it on an episode of "Ed" about 9 years ago. :)


    And Ed found out who the scammer was because he mailed a gigantic present to the PO Box, so whomever was walking out of the post office with that was the scammer.

    Well, Tuna is called the Chicken Of The Sea, and mayo has eggs, so I suppose it's come full circle.
