From: "Gary Wiltshire" Man Is Charged $4,300 for Four Burgers Mar 28 7:15 AM US/Eastern PALMDALE, Calif. Four burgers at his neighborhood Burger King cost George Beane a whopping $4,334.33. Beane ordered two Whopper Jr.s and two Rodeo cheeseburgers when he pulled up to the drive-through window last Tuesday. The cashier, however, forgot that she'd entered the $4.33 charge on his debit card and punched in the numbers again without erasing the original ones _ thus creating a four-figure bill. . . . http://www.breitbart.com/news/2006/03/28/D8GKII500.html * * * * * You'd think some sort of sanity check would be built into their system to prevent transactions of that size. -- Gary Wiltshire --- BBBS/NT v4.01 Flag-5* Origin: Barktopia BBS Site http://HarborWebs.com:8081 (1:379/45) SEEN-BY: 633/267 270 5030/786 @PATH: 379/45 1 633/267 |
