OREANDA-NEWS Employees of an unnamed company in Chelyabinsk became millionaires due to accounting errors. Komsomolskaya Pravda writes about this.
As follows from the material, one of the workers was transferred 100 times more than the required 50,000 rubles to the card instead of the December salary, and the case turned out to be more than an isolated one. "Some people have five million, some have eight million. There was no limit to the joy of the workers," the journalists describe the events at the factory.
According to them, "those especially responsible immediately contacted their superiors, but so far they are at a loss how to return the money."
According to Ilya Filatov, head of the Filatov and Partners Bar Association, if this is not done voluntarily, the company will have to prove its case in court. At the same time, it is noted that there is no clear definition of a counting error in the legislation, and the courts, as follows from practice, adhere to their interpretations and often "take the side of employees."
"In this situation, everything is not obvious. The employer, of course, can win. But the trial may take a long time," the lawyer commented.
Last year, customers of the largest bank in Ethiopia discovered that they could withdraw more money from their accounts than they had on them. In the few hours during which such an opportunity existed due to an internal error, customers managed to enrich themselves by more than $ 40 million, and, as the head of the credit institution said, most of this amount was withdrawn by students who actively shared information about this opportunity through messengers.
