Meanwhile in North Carolina . . .

Some dude had a FAT STACK of cash he felt like was totally social media worthy and could not NOT post a photo.

Arlando Henderson (29) of Charlotte is an employee at a Wells Fargo Bank — errr, was an employee.

Apparently dude was gradually stealing some money out of the bank’s vault . . . over time, accumulating around $88,000.

Arlando posed with that fat stack of cash and posted the photo to both Facebook AND Instagram . . . because why wouldn’t he . . .

The ‘gram worthy posts led the U.S. Attorney’s Office to him, and Arlando found himself arrested and is now looking at financial institution fraud charges . . . 19 counts of theft . . . embezzlement . . . misapplication . . . 12 counts of making false entries . . . AND money laundering.

Add it all up and dude’s looking at up to 40 years in prison AND a hefty $1.2 million fine.

Of course . . . HERE is the photo.
