Advertisement Josh Muszynski of Manchester said he was expecting to see a couple hundred dollars in his account, but instead he was faced with a negative balance far exceeding the national debt -- $23,148,855,308,184,500, WMUR-TV, Manchester, N.H., reported Wednesday. "If it were to be true that someone actually compromised that money and got that money, they could do some severe damage with that amount of money," he said. Muszynski said the amount appeared as a charge for a cigarette purchase at a Mobil gas station. "I thought my card had been compromised. I thought somebody had bought Europe with my credit card," Muszynski said. "It was very concerning." Advertisement Muszynski said he contacted Bank of America about the sum, and the $15 overdraft fee for his account, and the representative told him the issue would be corrected. He said the bank corrected the error about 24 hours after he discovered it. "It was back to normal. They reversed the negative balance fee, which was nice," Muszynski said. The Bank of America referred questions about the issue to VISA, which recommended questions be addressed to the bank, WMUR said. Ferrari test drive has writer in hot water PERTH, Australia, July 15 (UPI) -- An automotive writer went twice the speed limit while test driving a Ferrari in Western Australia, endangering other test drives, a fellow reviewer says. Reviewer Steve Lague said police impounded the Ferrari California used by motoring writer Rod Easdown in a recent test drive, which ended with cops citing the Financial Times writer for reckless driving, the Brisbane Times said. Easdown was allegedly going 143 mph in a 68 mph zone during Monday's test drive. "He may have just put his foot down momentarily to see what the acceleration is like," Lague said of Easdown's citation. "Five minutes later you're sitting on the side of the road being booked ... it can happen really quickly." Advertisement The speeding ticket involving the $472,000 sports car, one of only two in Australia, could make it difficult for other auto writers to test drive the Ferrari because of its busy schedule. But Lague is confident he will get his chance to get behind the wheel of the car owned by Ferrari dealer Ateco Automotive. "I'm sure Ferrari will try and look after us ... hopefully it's just a delay of a couple of days," Lague told the Times. Coffee customers pay it forward BLUE SPRINGS, Miss., July 15 (UPI) -- A Missouri coffee shop said a chain of customers paying for the drinks of the customers behind them has lasted for more than a week. Garin Bledsoe, owner of the Steamin' Bean in Blue Springs, said the chain began with a drive-through customer who wanted to pay for the next customer's drink as well as her own, and since then more than 1,000 customers have followed her example by accepting drinks paid for by the person in front of them and paying it forward, WDAF-TV, Kansas City, Mo., reported Wednesday. "It's hard times, but people are wanting to be part of something, knowing their 5 cents, their dollar goes to a greater good," Bledsoe said. "They may not be able to change the economy, but they can change one person a day by doing a simple little gesture." Advertisement He said a fund started by customers wishing to continue the pay-it-forward scheme in case someone breaks the chain has reached more than $160. Bledsoe said the woman who started the chain recently returned to the coffee shop and witnessed the pattern she had originated. "She started crying," Bledsoe said. "I explained to her we had generated so much money, people are giving so much here, I'm going to give money to these people. She just started crying. She thought it was great."
