Drive through bank only has candy?

Wouldn’t you be a bit mad too if you drove up to a banks drive-through window and you were told that the teller only had candy?

That happened to a man in Stone Lake, Wis recently when he drove up in his ATV.

Angered the man then held up a bag that he claimed contained a bomb, but the teller told him all she had was lollipops since her till had already been emptied. I guess he was perhaps attempting to rob the bank? In the end he drove away in frustration.

Stacked Cats?

stacked cats

Looks like these cats are stacked on top of each other in order of their size or weight with the fat cat being on the bottom!

I wonder if they were fighting over the ball or bell that seems to have been claimed by the big cat?

Fraud scheme included eating glass!

Did you hear about the man, Ronald Evano, that was sentenced last month to more than five years in jail due to his role in a fraud scheme in which he and his wife are said to have intentionally eaten glass fragments in order to collect more than $200,000 in compensation from a multi-state insurance company?

Evano was also ordered to repay as much as $340,000 for his role in defrauding insurers, grocery stores, restaurants, hospitals and doctors in the scheme in which both he and his wife claimed that there was glass in the food that they had eaten.

The couple filed fraudulent insurance claims worth more than $200,000 and incurred more than $100,000 in unpaid medical bills between 1997 and 2005 across several states.

Evano plead guilty to charges in federal court to 20 counts of mail fraud, conspiracy, wire fraud, identity theft, and making false statements on health care matters and social security fraud.

Evano’s wife, Mary, remains a fugitive. An arrest warrant has been issued for Mary Evano listing the same charges that her husband plead guilty to in August.

Evano asked the judge for mercy, saying in court that he and his wife are members of the minority Roma community, and needed the money to pay for dowries and other costs associated with the marriages of his sons under cultural practices.
