A Swedish woman received the shock of a lifetime when she found $1.13 billion (€883 million) more than expected in her bank account, a newspaper reported Tuesday.
Cornelia Johansson discovered the windfall on Monday, after she logged on to her Internet bank to pay some bills, regional daily Goeteborgs-Posten said in its online edition.
"The balance was more than 10 billion kronor. It said the amount had been deposited as a correction for a credit card purchase," Johansson's boyfriend Daniel Hoeglund told the daily.
On Tuesday morning, the money was still credited to her account, but a few hours later it was gone, as mysteriously as it had arrived.
A press spokeswoman for Nordea bank, the largest bank in the Nordic region, later explained the mystery as "a technical mistake made by a company." - AFP
