You Got to be Freakin' Kidding

Recently Manhattan accountant Frank Van Buren, contacted ExxonMobil to tell them when they renewed his card, that was set to expire, he wanted two. Except, for the stupidity of using credit, it sounds like no problem, especially for someone who has had an account with the company for 17-years.
Well he got the cards he requested — and then got two boxes with 1,000 cards each. Van Buren said it took hours to shred the cards, all of which, had his name and account number.


"How could you send me 2,000 cards by mistake?" Van Buren said he asked customer-service representatives.


ExxonMobil reportedly is looking into the mix-up. How stupid can the credit card companies be? Pretty stupid, but this one takes the cake.
