i told him to cash $1.500,000.00 all the necessary arrangement of delivering the $1.500,000.00 in cash was made with DHL GLOBAL COMPANY. This
in the information they need to delivery your package to you.

This is what they need from you.

Try to contact them as soon as possible to avoid mistake on the delivery.I gave them your delivering address but you have to reconfirm it to them

Actually - $1M in one hundred dollar bills fits a 9x9x13 inch box and weighs roughly 20 pounds.

And it still ranks quite high on the list of stupidest things I’ve ever done.

(Flew it. Mailing it would have been just plain idiotic.)

Its the same as $10k in $1 bills, I've personally held $5k in $1s Put a $100 in each of the stacks on the top layer to impress your friends.

If I respond to every email like that, I should have that much money coming to me, that they would have to dedicate the printing press to it for 6 months to print it all.
There must be truck loads of money sitting around in African banks!! Why do they need all this aid money from the developed world? They should just use some of this unclaimed money they have sitting around!!

Of course we did.
T’was years ago...

DAL (Dallas Love) to RFD (Greater Rockford, IL)
And we all know what’s at the Greater Rockford Airport !!
My favorite store !!

The box went in the PA31 with me, Darby, Shelby and one other pilot buddy of ours.

Myself in the PA31, and three T-28s (One of which is still here.)
came back.

Without the box...

I agree, actually I haven't gotten a lot lately, used to get them all the time.
But this one and the prior one I posted were just different.

This one, they are going to ship me 1.5 mill cash.

Heck I'd have to have one heck of an explanation for customs !!!

Surprisingly I have seen what $1m in cash looks like, at two places. At the mint in DC and at another location I won't disclose. Its not that much, kind of anti climatic.

Remember this one ?
IIRC, something about a South American drug bust.

Now this may require some help and a few skids.

Nah that was in Iraq, just shy of $200m if I remember correctly.

If I found that stash I would have liberated a bit before reporting it.
