Thank God For Overdraft Protection
When Josh Muszynski bought a pack of cigarettes at a New Hampshire gas station the other day he used his debit card. A couple of hours later he went online to check his account and found that he’d been charged over 23 quadrillion dollars. $23,148,855,308,184,500 to be exact. After two hours on the phone with Bank of America he finally got the 17-digit number and the $15 overdraft fee sorted out. Apparently they thought that instead of buying a pack of cigarettes he’d agreed to pay the California state budget deficit.
