                      Apparently, a marketing company hired by McDonalds to promote Monopoly were caught cheating in 2000, in which they were able to garner $24 million. Even more astonishing, McDonalds ended up settling with the marketing firm for $16 Million more.

                      So these guys saving rare Monoploy pieces aren't crazy. Load up on as many pieces as you can, and then sue McDonald's when a winner is announced.


                      In 2000, the US promotion was halted after fraud was uncovered. A subcontracting company called Simon Marketing (a then-subsidiary of Cyrk), which had been hired by McDonald's to organize and promote the game, failed to recognize a flaw in its procedures, and the chief of security, Jerome P. Jacobson,[1] was able to remove the most expensive game pieces, which he then passed to associates who would redeem them and share the proceeds. The associates won almost all of the top prizes between 1995 and 2000, including McDonald's giveaways that did not have the Monopoly theme. The associates netted over $24 million. The scheme was uncovered when one of the participants informed the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Even though the fraud was perpetrated without McDonald's knowledge, the McDonald's Corporation voluntarily attempted to rectify the situation by issuing payouts to new (legitimate) winners, awarding five $1 million annuity prizes and fifty $100,000 prizes over a five-day period.[1]

                      While the fraud appeared to have been perpetrated by only one key employee of the promotion company, and not by the company's management, eight people were originally arrested, leading to a total of 21 indicted individuals.[2] The relationship between McDonald's and Simon Marketing broke down in a pair of lawsuits over breach of contract, eventually settled out of court, with McDonald's' claim being thrown out and Simon receiving $16.6 million.[3] Due to a constitutional violation, four of those convicted of the fraud were later released as they were not initially charged with the offense.[4]

                        Oriental Avenue (#927), Vermont Avenue (#928), Connecticut Avenue (#929) (20 Prizes): $5,000 cash. Vermont Avenue is the rare piece. The odds of finding the rare piece and finishing the winning combination are 1 in 578,695,060.

                        So you won a cool 5g? I have oriental and connecticut if you wanna split the prize!

                          Seriously though anyone who would eat any fast food crap has a death wish. I dont care what they cook it in, it shows right on the wrappers now what that shit has in it. A big Mac and a large fry is basically your daily allowance for 3 of the worst things you can put in your body.

                          Now everyone needs some fat and some cholesterol and some sodium but from 2 items that dont even fill you up? I even feel bad giving it to the hungry guys with signs. I do drink the Medium Sprite though.

                          Only thing that is actually McDonalds I will consume is the shamrock and egg nog shakes (when they have them) and even those things have enough fat in them to kill you.
                          Just last Sept 21st had a triple bypass & repaired a hole in my heart...trust me "FAST FOOD" was the main culprit.....I ran Wendy's restaurants off & on for almost 7 years....I'm 66 and waiting for my tky sandwich & steamed carrots ..... bad things happen to good people?...naw it happens to us stupid people..
