so today I get my unemployment checks and go cash them at wachovia, i receive my money and continue on with my errands. I first go get my emissions done on my car, pay the man and he looks at me and says "you know i have to report you right?"...i said "excuse me?" He explains that the 20 i gave him was a fake, and calls the police. He then tells me he cant hold me at the emissions place, but the police are on there way. I have nothing to hide so I stay and wait.

the officer arrives on the scene and asks "where did you get this 20 from?" I told him i just came from the bank right before i got my emissions done, he looks at me like im lying and asks if i have a receipt from the bank....i dont.
so he asks me again "where did you get the money from?" i tell the officer i was not lying and if he would like he can take me back to the bank so we can talk to them.

so we go on a ride and get to the bank...i called my mother and told her what happened and she met us up there. we walk in the bank and the officer tells the manager that i said i got a fake 20 from them and wanted to see if i was actually at the bank at the time i told him....my story check out, he then starts interrogating the teller manager asking why they didnt catch that since there machines are suppose to catch that, and why the teller didnt catch it when she counted the money.

so since my story was legit the officer takes me back to my car and has me down as a victim on the report


why wachovia has really upset me, they didnt take the blame for it, i didnt get exchanged a 20, and it may not be much, but im 20 years old collecting unemployment, and moneys money....she told me she was not exchanging my money because once i leave the property they have no way of knowing that if it was actually theres which is a fine reason.....i however know it was theres because i have been dead broke for nearly 3 weeks now and have no money in my accounts...

cliff notes:

cash checks and receive a fake 20, try to use it for emissions, cop comes and checks my alibi...i get let go, but im not exchanged 20's because wachovia doesnt want to help there customers and not take the blame.
