[1]New York: Oops! PayPal, the online money-transfer company, has accidentally credited a man in Delaware a whopping $92,233,720,368,547,800, making him by far the richest man in the world.
Chris Reynolds said he was shocked when his received his monthly statement by e-mail from PayPal last week, with an ending balance of $92 quadrillion, over a million times richer than Carlos Slim, the world’s richest man.“I’m just feeling like a million bucks,” Reynolds, who has been a PayPal customer for about 10 years, was quoted as saying. “At first I thought that I owed quadrillions. It was quite a big surprise.”
PayPal has admitted the error and offered to donate an unspecified amount of money to a cause of Reynolds’ choice.
