Two women have been arrested by police who were trying to use $1 million counterfeit note at a retail store in Knoxville, Tennessee.
The women were reportedly trying to buy things using a $1 million billion at a Dollar Store in Knoxville on April 12. The attempt was foiled as the cashier called the police to report the incident.
According to reports, a 39-year-old woman, Amanda McCormick was in possession of the bill while she was accompanied by another 61-year-old woman.
One of the women told the cops that she had the money in the mail from a church, however, she failed to provide additional information about the illegal money.
