$23,148,855,308,184,500.00, twice

Two articles about people being overcharged by several quadrillion dollars, and the dollar amounts are identical. Foul play? Or maybe design flaw?

Remember that “three times is enemy action“.

Yahoo and AP report:

A New Hampshire man says he swiped his debit card at a gas station to buy a pack of cigarettes and was charged over 23 quadrillion dollars. Josh Muszynski (Moo-SIN’-ski) checked his account online a few hours later and saw the 17-digit number — a stunning $23,148,855,308,184,500…

And from Consumerist:

Kids these days! Hawkins writes, “My lectures about financial responsibility appear to have failed: yesterday [my teenaged daughter] charged $23,148,855,308,184,500.00 at the drug store.” You would think Visa would have caught the error and addressed it, if you were high. What Visa actually did was slap a $20 “negative balance” fee on it, of course.

Also, I bet that kid was buying cigarettes.

  1. I noticed this too, it confused me at first but it could be a very logical “bug” that was created to help out our collapse designed by our Federal Reserve during the 1930s

    23,148,855,308,184,500

    could that be the total worth of every human being alive?
