Sorry but I'm not buying this at all. How could you seriously consider this to be a forgery type crime $6,000,0000,000,000 dollars FFS. Not exactly cash under the counter at the local Chinese restaurant is it? Or is it?
Surely something far dodgier going on here. And the US government say they are fake - can't imagine what they have to gain from them being fake can you?
Fooking weird.

Yeah sure - I often buy bonds in $1 billion dollar denominations - just to clear out the back of the sofas.Edited by Olf on Friday 17th February 23:50
Google "Treaty of Versailles Boxes" and you get to tinfoil hat websites very quickly.

I assume the reference to billion dollar deminations was in the video - I'm mobile browsing so am unable to watch the clip.Edited by Olf on Friday 17th February 23:50
If that's the case, then I can understand your suspicion.

Who said anything about paying $1bn for them? There are greedy and/or gullible people out there who would undoubtedly part with amounts of cash for things like this. Doesn't have to be anything near face value for the scam to make money.Edited by Olf on Friday 17th February 23:50
