(KGTV) — A story that seems hard to believe claims a New York man tried to pass off a ridiculously bad homemade New York State Inspection sticker as the real thing.

It's true.

Police released a picture of the forgery attempt which looks like it was made by a child on a Post-it note.

The 30-year-old man is now facing a felony charge of criminal possession of a forged instrument.

New York requires car owners to have their vehicle inspected every twelve months and driving without a sticker can result in a fine.
