3/8 Tech Article

      


Give this kid a medal! Five-year-old Danny Kitchen of Bristol, England, spent $2,500 on iTune in-app purchases in about 15 minutes, the Beeb reports. Score! Spending that much money that quickly would seem to be a challenge, but his parent’s emailed bills show that he bought multiple $105 items in an as-yet-unidentified iPad game. Apparently, $2,500 goes out the door rather quickly when you spend in $100 increment.Fortunately, his parents did not have a heart attack when seeing the bills the next morning, and fortunately, Apple is being very good about the situation. The family will not be forced to pay for the virtual goods that Danny unknowingly bought.
