 Woman Lands $700K In Bank SNAFU | | By: BizarreNews | Published: 01/08/2000 | | |  |

NEW YORK - Susan Madakor, 40, a single mother who lives in public housing, discovered $700,000 in her account at Chase Manhattan Bank. The money was intended for a United Nations environmental fund and ended up in Madakor´s account by mistake, but she thought the money was a jackpot from a lottery she played. By the time the mistake was discovered, Madakor left her job at a textile company and bought a laundry business for $100,000, set up a college savings fund for her 10-year-old son, paid off $30,000 in credit card debt, furnished a new apartment and leased a van. Now she is fighting to get the money back in court. The foreign governments that provided the funds used an account number that was off by one digit.

Is this still in the news!? I heard this story years ago. Perhaps it is merely an Urban Legend?
