Puxa! Fico feliz em saber que fiz uma análise errada. Em vez de ser
encrenqueiro eu estava agindo de forma justa, segura e pertinente. :-)

Olha o que poderia ter acontecido, PSP:
In March 1992 a man living in Newtown near Boston Massachusetts
received a bill for his as yet unused credit card stating that he owed
$0.00. He ignored it and threw it away.
In April he received another and threw that one away too.
The following month the credit card company sent him a very nasty note
stating they were going to cancel his card if he didn't send them $0.00
by return of post.
He called them, talked to them, they said it was a computer
error and told him they'd take care of it.
The following month he decided that it was about time that he
tried out the troublesome credit card figuring that if there were
purchases on his account it would put an end to his ridiculous
predicament.
However, in the first store that he produced his credit card
in payment for his purchases he found that his card had been cancelled.
He called the credit card company who apologized for the computer
error
once again and said that they would take care of it. The next day he
got a bill for $0.00 stating that payment was now overdue. Assuming
that having spoken to the credit card company only the previous day
the
latest bill was yet another mistake he ignored it, trusting that the
company would be as good as their word and sort the problem out.
The next month he got a bill for $0.00 stating that he had 10
days to pay his account or the company would have to take steps to
recover the debt.
Finally giving in he thought he would play the company at
their own game and mailed them a check for $0.00. The computer duly
processed his account and returned a statement to the effect that he
now owed the credit card company nothing at all.
A week later, the man's bank called him asking him what he
was doing writing a check for $0.00.
After a lengthy explanation the bank replied that the $0.00
check had caused their check processing software to fail.
The bank could not now process ANY checks from ANY of their
customers that day because the check for $0.00 was causing the
computer to crash.
The following month the man received a letter from the credit
card company claiming that his check had bounced and that he now owed
them $0.00 and unless he sent a check by return of post they would be
taking steps to recover the debt.
The man, who had been considering buying his wife a computer
for her birthday, bought her a typewriter instead.

Não leve nada pro lado pessoal. Apenas divirta-se.
