Martrel Reeves, better known by his stage name “Fat Trel,” was arrested by police Tuesday for allegedly using counterfeit $50 bills at Maryland Live! Casino.

According to a report from complex.com, Trel was detained by the authorities after trying to use nine fake $50 bills to gamble with. He was later charged.

The report said that Trel claimed all the bills came from a 7-Eleven ATM, though the 25-year-old later said on Twitter that he didn’t use an ATM.

Eight of the bills had matching serial numbers, which helped the casino spot the counterfeit money, according to a report from TMZ.

Maryland Live! is the largest casino in the state of Maryland.
