Reddit user u/9sixteenchris's viral post on the r/mildlyinfuriating subreddit Monday has 12,700 reactions from people shocked that someone actually tipped the bill pictured with Benjamin Franklin and "$1,000,000" written on it in multiple places. On the back is an entire paragraph of "one million dollar questions" quoted from the Bible.

According to usa.gov, the United States treasury has never printed a usable $1 million bill for circulation, so the amount of the fake bill in paper currency doesn't exist.
The $1 million tip the Reddit user received looks like a novelty ad for "fullyfreefilms.com," which takes you to a website for free Christian movies offered by Living Waters, an evangelical resource.
The maddening tipping situation has about 1,800 Redditors fantasizing about all of the different ways they would react if they received the fake tip, and many are ruthless.

"Hold onto it and give it as change if the customer ever comes back," a user wrote.
Although, some people suggest that a customer like that shouldn't be allowed back.
"If I ran a service business of any type, I would mark those people as banned," another user said, receiving 262 votes. "Tipping on its own is not a good setup, but when people abuse it like this, they deserve every consequence they get."
It seems, however, many would want to pay some pettiness forward to something that infuriates them.
"Pay it forward," one Redditor suggests. "Drop it in an envelope and send it to an organization you can't stand."
