So, if you’ve been following Curtis ’50 Cent’ Jackson’s legal woes as of late, then you’d know that just one day after he was ordered to pay Rick Ross’ baby muva $7 million in damages, the rapper filed for bankruptcy. Ironically, he claimed that he wasn’t broke and only did it to protect his assets but of course his ego didn’t stop him from flaunting his stash on social media!
Anyway, last month, Fiddy was ordered by a judge to explain where the loads of cash he flaunts on his Instagram came from. Later on, the rapper confessed that the money is totally fake, but Billboard Magazine may have thrown the rapper all the way under the bus when they hinted at possible counterfeit money which is punishable by the U.S. Secret Service:
Billboard Magazine:
…his answer may soothe the judge’s concerns, but how about the U.S. Secret Service, which is responsible for protecting against the counterfeiting of U.S. currency?
Robert Hoback, a spokesperson for the agency, wouldn’t comment directly about [50 Cent]’s case, but did point out an FAQ on the Secret Service website pertaining to the rules for the printing, publishing and illustration of U.S. currency. The rules dictate that illustrations must be “less than three-fourths or more than one and one-half” the size of a real bill and that anything used in the making of an illustration must be “destroyed and/or deleted or erased after their final use.”
What do y’all think, Roommates? *sips tea*
