$81 Billion for Gas Fill-up
Man Charged $81 Billion for Gas Fill-up
SPOKANE, WA -- Juan Zamora of Washignton State says a normal trip to the gas station turned into an $81 billion mistake when he filled-up his gas tank earlier this week.
Zamora commutes from Spokane to the Hanford Nuclear Reservation in Richland, WA. Making the drive 4 times per week equates to 700 miles and $100 in gas every week.
Zamora returned home to hear an automated voicemail explain his purchase at a local gas station was approved for $81,400,836,908.
"I didn't believe the amount myself," he said. "So I played it over and over again."
Over and over again he heard the same amount: $81,400,836,908.
Zamora says it took hours of work on the phone to clear the billions of dollars of debt, but in the end the bank realized what happened.
"All in all I lost a couple of hours of work," he said. "But I knocked a huge debt off."
And he gained an unforgettable story.

He should have sent the bill to obama, he would have paid it. Then at least that much money would make it back into the economy.
