An Iowa man was arrested after police allegedly found meth on him when he attempted to deposit a million-dollar bill.
Dennis Strickland's get rich quick scheme was busted after he allegedly tried to deposit an unusually large bill at a bank in Sioux City, Iowa, on Thursday.
The 33-year-old was arrested after police were called to the scene over the suspicious transaction.
When officers asked if he had any more of the bills in his pocket, Strickland pulled out a baggie of meth instead, police said.
Strickland allegedly attempted to become a millionaire at Northwest Bank on West 7th Street in Sioux City.
A bank teller alerted police over the transaction because Strickland never had more than $500 in his account at a time, reported Kelo Land.
The deposit was also suspicious because the United States Treasury has never printed such a bill.

You have to die in the act to win the Darwin Award (taking your genes out of circulation in a stupid way).
Perhaps there could be another award for stupidest moron criminals..... the Hillary Award???/
The Debbie Wasserman-Schultz Award????
Looks like a NBL player. No doubt an NBL player could have a million dollar note on him!
After months of plotting this brilliant crime he had the misfortune to have ended up with a sharp eyed teller who foiled his heist... Rats!
ROFL!!!! WHAT A GREAT ###ING MOVIE!!!
“The B.tch squealed!!” :)
Also, The deposit was also suspicious because the United States Treasury has never printed such a bill...
Yeah i’d say that makes it suspicious :)
Hold on for a tick.
This guy is GUILTY of CULTURAL APPROPRIATION.
Meth is a WHITE MAN’S DRUG, especially Southern rural white men.
“I love wrong numbers.”
From the headline, I worried it was my nephew. Thanks for the photo.
I told him to stick it into the change machine first and then deposit the 4 million quarters so it would not be as suspicious... dummy.
“I’d have gotten away with it too, if it hadn’t been for those meddling bank tellers.”

The WIENER AWARD!
An “unusually large bill”. Sounds like he had a bill that was bigger than normal. Or was the dumb reporter trying to say it was of a large denomination?
Meth use...always a bad look
Reminds me of a favorite cartoon:
Two convicts in a cell with a framed bill on the wall. Says pointing convict.
"First dollar I ever made. Quarter inch too long"
“...teller alerted police over the transaction because Strickland never had more than $500 in his account at a time...”
I’m not sure which is more shocking.
The fact that this guy once had $500 in his account.
Or the fact that this teller has a job.
Also... terrible reporting. I want to know how much he paid for the bill.
I’m guessing it was $500.
Poor unfortunate guy. His bond is $1000. And his cell mate is 10 bucks short of making change for a million.
