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.

The charges went unnoticed until a bank security specialist started seeing suspicious patterns to Chan's account. This is how deep this dudes pockets are? If I'm missing $5 I'm ready to start making heads roll! $800,000?!!

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.

CNN's Wolf Blitzer Learns To Dougie and Accepts Eminems Award At Upcoming Soul Train Awards

REALLY?!!!  I'm not sure where Hip Hop is going, but this is a hot mess... I'm sorry,  they have Wolf Blitzer on, but what about having MORE of Hip Hop's pioneers invited and presenting at these award ceremonies.  We don't always have to wait until they are dead and gone.  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.
