A US man says he swiped his debit card at a service station to buy a packet of cigarettes and was charged over $US23 quadrillion dollars.

Josh Muszynski, from New Hampshire, checked his account online a few hours after the purchase and saw the 17-digit number - a stunning $US23,148,855,308,184,500 (twenty-three quadrillion, one hundred forty-eight trillion, eight hundred fifty-five billion, three hundred eight million, one hundred eighty-four thousand, five hundred dollars).

I realise this is not exactly "Breaking News" but I thought it was a good laugh, and many ATSers need a good laugh once in a while.

Mind you, I thought perhaps the sneaky NWO had used this man's account to hide the US deficit lol – that is one mighty big number!

But what really cracked me up is that he only got charged $15 for over drawing his account!!! So I may go and pull a couple of mil from my account tomorrow and happily pay the overdrawn fee hehehehehe....
