I mean, it's genuinely hard to process the fact that we do indeed share a planet with hopelessly lost souls like the one in this story. The dude literally thought he was making his hefty purchases on a gift card, when in fact it was a credit card. Like, how do you end up in that kind of self-created debacle? The recklessness of blind ignorance is a mystifying thing to behold.
This thread was posted to Reddit's r/talesfromcallcenters subreddit by u/RedMirricat, who opened up about this experience they had when they were working at a large banking call center. The original poster appropriately referred to the idiot in question as Dumbfounded Customer. Imagine learning the cold hard truth that you owe that much money. I guess people really do just believe what they want to believe…that is, until it all comes back to bite you in the butt. We're wondering if our favorite Dumbfounded Customer is still paying off his credit card now.
