The Credit Card Prank, part II
The Credit Card Prank, Part II
Quote:
The manager, a guy about my age with a ponytail and a goatee, came over to see what was wrong. They exchanged some hushed words, and then he rang through my purchase again. "Can you sign the screen, please?" he asked. This guy was serious.
Again I signed NOT AUTHORIZED to my $16,800 purchase.
"What is that?" he asked.
"That's my signature," I said.
"You can't sign it NOT AUTHORIZED."
"Why not?"
"Because you need to sign your name."
"Well, I recently changed my signature," I said hopefully. "It now looks a lot like NOT AUTHORIZED."
"It's got to match the back of your card," the manager said.
"Oh," I said. "No problem." I took the card back from him and wrote NOT AUTHORIZED on the back of my credit card. I had heard that this trick sometimes works...[more]

Whether you've read the original Credit Card Prank on Zug.com or not, I guarantee this is a good laugh. A REALLY good laugh.
