Most criminals are not too bright, but every now and then one is found that takes stupid to a new level. The FBI has found a new candidate for this honor.
On September 5th, a man robbed a bank in Englewood, Colorado of $5,000 by passing a note to a teller demanding the money. Now this doesn't sound too out of the ordinary. A lot of bank robberies are done this way.
But how many robbers write the note on the back of one of their own checks? That's right, this genius wrote the robbery note on the back of his own check. The FBI said he did try to black out his name, but they were still able to read it.
But even that wasn't stupid enough for this criminal. He then goes out and brags to someone about getting $5,000 in a bank robbery. Of course, this person calls the crime tip line and turns him in (probably for a reward).
I really hope this guy is not planning a life of crime, because he presents no challenge at all for the police.
