| 775652 | 2009-05-21 07:39:00 | www.nzherald.co.nz Leo Gao and his girlfriend, who ran a Rotorua service station, are understood to have applied to Westpac Bank for a $10,000 overdraft and mistakenly had $10 million paid into their account. One News sources tonight suggested the couple may have headed towards Korea or China with up to $6m. |

| 775655 | 2009-05-21 08:11:00 | Well I probably wouldnt get out of the country, since I havent renewed my passport for the last 20 yrs :lol: So, even if I tried, I wouldnt get past the frontdesk. Unless I dug a hole somewhere that noone could find, I wouldnt bother | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 775656 | 2009-05-21 08:12:00 | Look at all the 0s and savour it for a moment, then tell the bank! I wonder if the bank could give a small reward, like what may happen if you just found it somewhere? Can't see them doing that though! Nah, just give it back, it aint yours to keep! LL |

| 775657 | 2009-05-21 08:17:00 | Probally return after charging interest, transfer and paper fees. I recon you could get 30 to 40 grand out of them. |

| 775659 | 2009-05-21 08:28:00 | There was actually a ring in on the radio this afternoon about this - and several people rang in saying this happens all the time, smaller amounts. One person rang the bank - they let her keep the Interest that had accumulated when they took the $$ back, other said the whole shooting match had to be paid back, interest and all. I liked it when our mortgage got changed 6 years ago - for a few minutes according to the Bank our mortgage was paid off :banana - I said thanks very much- see ya!!!! - didn't last long though:crying |

| 775660 | 2009-05-21 08:34:00 | My thoughts on this are that if the bank had accidentally taken $10m from me (which incidentally I don't have), I would expect it to be given back to me. Therefore, if they accidentally gave me $10m, I would give it back to them. | somebody (208) | ||
| 775661 | 2009-05-21 08:36:00 | Ya wouldn't see me for dust and small stones. :banana Playing hide and seek with their money, what a nice change. :clap |
