POSTED: 9:18 am EST November 27, 2007
AIKEN, S.C. -- Authorities said a bank teller in Clearwater had a million reasons not to open an account for an Augusta, Ga., man.
Aiken County Sheriff's spokesman Lieutenant Michael Frank said 31-year-old Alexander D. Smith tried to open an account on Monday with a fake $1 million bill.
Franks said the employee refused to open the account and called police while the man started to curse at bank workers.
Frank said Smith has been charged with disorderly conduct and two counts of forgery.
Authorities said the federal government has never printed a million-dollar bill.
