When you get your IRS tax refund check, copy the ABA # and account number from the check and use it for your claims routing purposes.

2 chicks at the same time?

[FenderGuy]

Well I was going to give some money to the guy restoring the "912e"

Then place a order for a Turbo Cab

Then I would drive around and find 2 chicks

Then wire the rest of my money in my off shore accounts

[Groesbeck Hurricane]

Open an account with $5.00 and then respond. No, wait, I like the IRS idea!!!

Many people fall for this, and get hit twice when they invest more funny money in the next lotto drawing!
