Guy accidentally tips more than £1 million on dinner
Everybody makes mistakes, but not every mistake costs its victim boatloads of cash.
In Scotland, a restaurant diner was shocked to realize that he'd accidentally tipped more than £1 million on a £100 meal. Oops.
The Evening Express reports that the massive transaction went down at an Indian restaurant in Inverurie, Scotland. After the diner finished his meal, he approached owner Abdul Wahid to settle his bill.

As Wahid tells the Express, when the diner input the tip amount in the restaurant's credit card reader, the transaction didn't go through. After phoning the diner's bank and obtaining a confirmation code, the transaction was successful.
It wasn't until the diner handed the card reader back to Wahid that the owner realized his customer's £1,006,082.04 mistake.
All was not lost, however. After calling the bank to note his mistake, the customer got his money back and paid a more sensible amount.
