[QUOTE]COBB COUNTY, Ga. —
State investigators have arrested a woman accused of filing a fake state tax return for $94 million.
Now investigators say they are looking for the woman's cousin, whom they say also filed a fake tax return.
Channel 2 Action News was at a Cobb County supermarket as Brigitte Jackson was arrested at the bank counter inside the store.
“It doesn’t matter if it’s $94 or $94 million. We’re going to go after you and hold you accountable,” said Georgia Department of Revenue Special Investigations Chief Josh Waites.
Investigators said Jackson tried to trick the state into paying her the fake $94 million tax return. But investigators said they stayed one step ahead.
Waites said investigators asked Jackson to come to the supermarket to pick up her $94 million refund check. That’s when she was arrested.
She is facing five charges, including attempted theft by taking and conspiracy to defraud the state.
Waites said Jackson’s cousin, Darrius White, like her, reported $99 million in income, tried to claim a mammoth refund and now faces the same charges.[/QUOTE]

:downs:
Can't believe she done this and thought it would work
What an idiot
It takes a special kind of retard to think this would work.
There must be a very narrow band of intelligence where you're stupid enough to think this would work but still smart enough to fill out the forms.
This reminds me of the case awhile ago when a man tried to cash a check for $360 [B]billion[/B]
