Someone is flashing big wads of cash on the Treasure Coast. The only problem? The bills might be fake.

Port St. Lucie police said a man tried to use a fake $100 bill at a McDonald's at 3199 SW Port St. Lucie Blvd.

When questioned by an employee, he said he just got it from a bank and then opened his wallet to show off more $100 bills.

He left with the bogus bill when he was told 911 was called, police said. 

If you recognize him please call Port St. Lucie Police Detective Wade Willnow at (772) 879-3397 or Treasure Coast Crime Stoppers at 800.273.TIPS.
