Watch Charges Made to Your Credit/Debit Cards: The $800,000 Cab Ride
A Hong Kong man, megamillionaire Tony Chan, took a cab ride from New York City to his private jet in New Jersey, when cabbie Peter Rahhaoui used the AmEx Chan paid with to rack up charges over the next few MONTHS.

Anyway, Chan has his own financial legal issues. Shortly after driver Rahhaoui's arrest, Chan was arrested in Hong Kong from allegations that he forged a will from the late BILLIONAIRE, Nina Wang, who died in 2007, making him the sole heir. Ms. Wang was Asia's richest woman. Wang's net worth was listed by Forbes at $4.2 billion.

Sometimes pioneers don't get recognition when they have passed, they're completely forgotten about. I'm just sayin'...
Anyway, I'm ranting. Here's Wolf Blitzer doing his version of the Dougie.
