Infinite money glitch

I don't get it, how does depositing a check become a police matter?
PS: It says cash first and deposit further down, I'm assuming deposit must be the correct part.
Edit: PPS. I know there is racism and this happens in USA, but the amount of amateur hour from the Banks procedure, to the people working there and the police responding to a non issue is mind numbing for a person coming from Denmark, where banks are run professionally, and the police almost is too.
- Racist bank employees made it a police matter when they assumed he was passing a fraudulent check and called to have the guy arrested for being a negro in possession of money.
  
  But how do they "assume" this? And why does the police accept it without any evidence?
  I mean the amateurish incompetence is staggering.
  Isn't it normal procedure to deposit the check until it's cleared?
  
  I mean, the cops killed George Floyd for using a counterfeit $20 bill at a convenience store in Minneapolis.
  Detroit (where this happened) is just one state over.
  
  That's what makes matters so complicated to try to address - e.g. sometimes cops are racist themselves, directly, but other times they are not and yet still any race-blind application of "enforcement" is going to merely reinforce the racist policies of society.
  "Sad:-("
- Because: banking while black.
  
  Yes, and being a banker and policeman while racist, which is actually illegal. Being black remains legal despite Republicans best efforts.
  USA is an extremely scary place, especially for people of any color other than white.
- We use "cash a check" interchangeably with "deposit a check"
  
  OK, weird since it's not the same thing?

Next thing you know, the judge thinks this guy is full of bullshit for being black, then gets sued for racism, thus continuing the cycle
- When he cashes the cheque for this incident he gets nabbed again and more lawsuits. His lawyer must love him.
  
  Yeah imagine the call with his lawyer. "Hi, it's me again. You're not gonna fucking believe this."
  
  The lawyer gets probably 40-60% from every one of these. I bet they would love for the cycle of racism to never end.

Infinite money sounds great, but if you activate this glitch the Law faction becomes hostile toward you and their aggro range is increased.
There is a similar cheat that you can activate with a cheat code, but your parents need to input the code on the title screen before starting your game. You'll start in "New Game +" with huge bonuses to cash and influence. The Law faction becomes friendly toward you, and the MegaRich are neutral instead of hostile, and they'll even forgive minor grievances sometimes.
I never learned the code so I can't help much more than that. Sorry 😔
- I started that way, it's nice. You can still play on hard mode with the poverty debuff, but if you pick the right starting region it makes for a good game. Playing on dark mode with poverty debuff is just constant grinding with the level progression all fucked up, it's kind of immersion breaking. You can get participation trophies that way though.
  If you start with the cheat code you get a permanent culture debuff though.
  
  True but the culture debuff makes you more likely to acquire the "unempathetic" trait which if your goal is a financial victory is a must.
  
  That's us server centrism
- Is this how sovcits really started?
  
  Bro just explained reality to us

Everyone gone woke nowadays.
Except the employer
And the police
Everyone except those in power gone woke somehow
- And the cowards that anonymously threaten minorities and Democrats... But that's it! Everyone else is wOkE!!!

This is an old meme. Does anyone know how that second lawsuit turned out?
- I looked through some articles, then got distracted by the fact that Snopes fact checked Cracker Barrel racially segregating customers until 2004 and it being TRUE.
  The best part? There was a falsity in the claim they were checking, that Cracker Barrel settled the lawsuit. No, they fought it and lost, lmao.
  
  They dont call it cracker barrel for the crispbreads
  
  Smoking, white smoking, non, or black non?
- I couldn't find anything. Sauntore Thomas deposited the check elsewhere and planned to seek damages from TCF bank, but I couldn't find anything about how that developed.
  
  He didn't need to sue them, just notify the fdic and they'll threaten to pull their backing.
  
  Oh, TCF is no longer because Huntington bought them out a while ago. They probably just gave him hush money then.

Wait, they still use cheques in America?!
- They do! It's like they never heard of EFTs. They also pay many of their bills manually, or even worse, some still mail a cheque in response to a bill they receive via snail mail.
  
  As a CSR at a fuel company who regularly deals with many types of people:
  It's not "Americans haven't heard of ach/eft", it's old Americans who refuse to use it.
  I have multiple overly paranoid nutters who insist they must hand their check to my driver or some evil spirit will take their money from them in the night (these are not pleasant people in general, either, so I think it's that they like forcing an interaction with their nasty asses on my driver's)
  
  My quick search tells me this is basically the payment processors like Paypal, right? If I understand right, each of them takes a percent of each transaction. It's often a very American sentiment to prefer a processor that has no middle man taking cuts.
- No, never. They use checks.
- I know right? This would have been an electronic bank transfer here int he UK and I'm sure across Europe.
  I can't remember the last time I used a cheque. Maybe 10 or even 15 years ago? Even that was a random one off. I don't even have a cheque book and would have to ask the bank especially if I wanted one.
  
  When I was last in California they still had the machine to take an imprint of your card’s numbers in restaurants. Had to check my phone to see what century I was in!
  That said, there’s an eccentric car hire guy near here who still uses the machine. But then he has Elvis memorabilia all over his office.
  
  That's literally how it works in the US.
  
  Last time I saw one was likely more than 20 years ago.
- For large sums of money, it's pretty common to use cashier's checks, which is probably the kind of check that they're talking about here.
  
  Aren't especially for large sums these very risky? I mean you could lose it or they won't believe it's real.
- While people don't use them much, companies do. Both for payroll and bills etc. I work for a a MSP (managed service provider, basically a company that sells scalable IT to other companies) and the amount of check printer tickets we get isn't small. Also for more shock, faxing is still often used as well.
  
  Holy hell is faxing used by doctors/insurance companies. Luckily efax a lot of times now which is itself hilariously stupid, but plently of paper gets sent over the wire on a technology that is, no shit, from 1850.
- We've never used your weird ass check-ways
  For inventing English you guys are horrible at it

- It’s more of an older person thing but companies will send them for payments. Your employer will do a direct EFT though.
- It isn't uncommon for large sums. Things like down payments etc.
- Older people tend to, it's not that common. I think I've written like one or two checks in my life.
- Depends on how you want to pay for your settlement.
  I got a check during my lawsuit with my landlord.
- yeah, but we also have Publix fried chicken, so it evens out 👌
- I'm not in America and as recently as a few years ago, I was aware of several companies who had cheque printer sheets from their bank which had something like 3-5 cheques per sheet. You'd load up a template and fill it out, run it through the printer and then just sign them and it's all good.
  I don't see anyone using personal cheques anymore, but they're still in use in business.
  
  I just wrote a personal check yesterday - bought a 20 year old minivan from the in-laws. But yeah, was the first time in years.
  
  I had to get a tow from a shop in town I'd not heard of before. Strong chance its just the one dude who works there. He was really surprised I didn't have a checkbook on me. I was surprised that he was surprised since I'm consistently told I look about 20. I have a checkbook for the rare occasion that I need it, but haven't written a check since my final rent check before I got my house
- I rarely see anyone under 40 using checks anymore. It's really an older generation thing and they're stuck in their ways.
  They still get stressed out about manually balancing their checkbooks too. Even though it's an obsolete skill now and the banks keep track of all of the transactions automatically for them

I would keep doing this over and over. If the bank acted properly, you can just have them print a new check, then try elsewhere.

  Being born into an white upper class family is the real infinite money glitch.

I hope he drives by that bank every single day just to smile pleasantly and wave.
- What and get the cops called on him again?
- Seems to have been working out for him so far

Infinite money but you can never check out
- Don't need to. I'd just make a bunch of IOUs backed by this infinite money and pay people in that. Eventually you could add some security measures to validate the IOUs are legitimate, and even allow people to exchange them between each other.

Hey I had my bank do that to me once too, and I'm brownish of the navajo-german-irish-spain type, how can that litigious man prove that racism was the reason his bank wouldn't accept the check?
- A simple 'is it cuz i'm Black?'
  
  But I'm not black. The best way I can describe myself is a lot of people tell me I look like Sandra Bullock. And this bank cruelty happened to me too. One time the teller wouldn't even let me take $100 out of my own bank account. He literally sent me away with nothing. anyway my point is, if the bank teller Is suspicious of an uncharacteristically huge check, from anyone no matter what color they are, they have the right to refuse service I suppose. I've experienced it. So I'm curious how this litigious guy is going to prove that racism was the reason the bank wouldn't allow him to deposit that huge check.
- wait, now i'm curious what exactly is german-brown?
  
  American ©®™
  
  I'm mostly German & Irish but 12% Navajo, and somehow the Navajo came out strongest appearance-wise.

There's another glitch where you mass produce shitty guns and then take them to buybacks run by the server moderators. You need to be careful because the moderators will try to trick you into admitting that you made the guns for the buyback, which requires joining a manufacturer's guild and you can get banned for it. You have to play it off like you just make them constantly and had them sitting around.
- Uuh I was planning on scamming people by making low quality anvils but this works too.
  You can also make copies of Ben Eater's "world's worst video card", put it on a pcb with an isa slot and wait for goobers to buy them on ebay. As long as it can actually output video you don't have to accept returns.
  
  I'd pay good money for a working one.
  Someone fabbing a PCB and selling it unpopulated would be great too
