I found this story on Ananova....
Woman logs on to bank to find she'd become Sweden's richest A Swedish woman logged onto the internet to check her bank balance and found she'd become the country's richest person. Gunn-Britt Marklund was checking to see whether her child benefit had been paid and was staggered to read her balance was £6.4 billion. "I sat down and stood up and sat down again," she told local daily Tidningens Angermanland. She had to ask her partner to come and confirm the figures on the screen. On Monday morning she checked again and the money was still there so she contacted the Ica Bank to ask where it had come from. She was told it was a computer mistake and they quickly withdrew the money from her account. The money was in her account for 24 hours and would have earned her £1m interest, but that's only in theory. "Let me point out that the account holders will not receive the interest," said Ica Bank spokeswoman Lena Blomquist. So what would you if it wasn't a mistake and you had all that money to spend? ![]() |
