I think they recorded most of the serial numbers of the bills? And it was never spent? If someone was to spend that today, are those still in some tracking system now so they'd be found? How long are things like that followed?

- everdev 8y agoThe only counter argument that comes to mind is that in some foreign countries US dollars are accepted. If that money is in international circulation is might not be picked up. Although, one would assume that over time some of it would make it's way back to the US.
- secabeen 8y agoYes, they recorded every serial number of every bill, and not a single one has ever been recorded in circulation. A subset of them were found in the area where he jumped out in 1980 by an 8-year old, but those were not put into circulation.
- mabbo 8y agoHe may have just never spent any of it. Presuming he's still alive, there might be a duffel-bag full of very well-known serial-numbered bills buried behind his house, with a last will and testament saying "I did it, go dig up the money now, haha, I got away with it". Sounds crazy, right? But then you remember this guy hijacked a plane and then jumped out of it and maybe crazy is exactly right.
