Very unfortunate situation!
A Russian woman mistakenly inputted the credit card password as a gratuity in a Swiss restaurant, giving out around US$7,700 to enjoy a cake and coffee.
Olesja Schemjakowa, 37, order the sweet and a coffee in New Point Cafe in February for a total of 23.7 Swiss francs. When she paid the bill, she put the credit card password "7686" as the tip amount. With the food she had ordered, she finally paid 7709.7 Swiss francs.
Olesja only realised her mistake when she received the credit card bill. She contacted the bank to ask for help, but they said the case was not fraudulent so they couldn’t help her.
The desperate woman tried to contact the cafe owner and told her previous had gone wrong. The boss had promised to refund her by the end of March, but Olesja has not yet received any of the refund.
After an investigation, the coffee shop was closed and filed for bankruptcy in early March, and she had to accept the fact of losing money and changed her credit card password.
