A 40-year-old resident of China's Zhejiang province traveled with 3 friends to Zhuji. Here, they attended the inauguration of a new venue and in the end the dinner bill was 85 yuan (11 euros). To pay the bill, the man used a prepaid card to get a free gift: based on a promotion, in fact, by paying 100 yuan (12, 75 euros) he would also be credited with a 20 yuan bonus (2.50 euros) . But when he paid, by mobile phone, he was charged 1 million yuan (127 thousand euros). Due to the inauguration, the restaurant was packed with patrons and the super-busy staff realized the error only the next day. The local owner, Chen Ruoxuan, contacted the prepaid card company and returned the entire sum to the man. The latter, on the other hand, had not noticed anything and was astonished when he was told he was returning the money to his account. "How was such a thing possible?" He said.
