Generous ATM: gave $20 instead of $5 bills
Posted on July 29th, 2007 No comments
An ATM at a northwest Louisiana truck stop was handing out $20 bills instead of $5 bills amounting to total of $7,000 extra amount been given out. The authorities have solved the problem and know who used it and plan to pursue the money back.DeSoto Parish sheriff’s Lt. Toni Morris said the automated teller machine has records identifying the 26 people who received the extra cash during five days in late June and early July.
Annette Parker, a supervisor at Eagle’s Truck Stop, said she unplugged the machine after overhearing conversations about the excess payments.
“The next morning when we had come back in, someone had plugged it back up,” she said. (source)
I wonder if they have camera to prove that those who used the machines indeed got $20 bills instead of $5.
Would keep the money or hand it over to the bank like a good boy, if you were in that situation? Does it make sense to charge back the money for the reason the machine screwed up? Please comment.
