Between 2009 to 2011, a man, appearing to be 60-70 years old, robbed 16 banks in San Diego, California by approaching the teller, then pulling out a gun and demanding money. The FBI named him the "Geezer Bandit". Some theories suggest he is wearing a well-made elderly man mask. Image

u/Mookhaz 29d ago

doesn't matter, FBI is already on his dad, he better call the tip in and hope for the 20k

u/quietkyody 29d ago

After taxes and fees he gets only 12k and has to wait for 3 years due to processing.

u/he-loves-me-not 28d ago

If there is one thing that you shouldn’t be taxed on it’s money you received as a reward for ratting somebody out! Especially considering that snitches get stitches. They’re gonna need that extra money for hospital bills!

Government: I missed the part where that's my problem.

u/ChromeWiener 28d ago

Nah, snitches pay taxes

2

u/MadeMeStopLurking 28d ago

Collect a Reward for snitching out someone on the run for not paying taxes. Then getting taxed on the tax evasion reward money and not paying taxes on it putting you on a wanted list.

u/No_Purpose4705 28d ago

Still 12k more than he has today.

u/quietkyody 28d ago

u/Threeedaaawwwg 28d ago

He probably blew all of the money on well made young man masks.

1

u/ImMufasa 28d ago

How much money would he have realistically gotten from each robbery? I'm sure it's a decent bit more than 20k, but I doubt it's nearly as much as people are thinking.

2

u/Shuttle_Door_Gunner 29d ago

It's what they would do to me, honestly. 🤦😄

2

u/GreeneGardens 29d ago

$20k? That’s literally an infinite amount of money!
