PayPal, an international payment system, has erroneously sent a whopping $92,233,720,368,547,800 in the account of Mr. Chris Reynolds, leaving him in absolute shock. So when the 56-year-old checked his balance with the online money-transfer company recently, it was something of a surprise for him to be told he was a quadrillionaire – making him the world’s richest man. Mr Reynolds, from Delaware County, opened his monthly-statement by email on Friday to discover that his balance was a whopping $92,233,720,368,547,800, CNN reported. PayPal admitted the error and offered to donate an unspecified amount of money to a cause of Reynolds’ choice. “This is obviously an error and we appreciate that Mr. Reynolds understood this was the case,” PayPal said in a statement.
