Man sues credit card for breach of contract. - deckeda - 08-29-2013
I mildly LOL'd.

1) Print contract
2) Modify contract and sign
3) ?
Sure, what he did couldn't last (and could still land him in hot(er) water) ... but the bank didn't read the [new] fine print.

In Soviet Russia credit card charges you!
I have to say, I sort of hope he wins, at least something, just to put the shoe on the other foot, for a change.

I'm not sure how they are going to fight that. If they are going to try and claim fraud against him because they didn't read the fine print and they get a positive verdict that is going to set the precedence that the excuse that the fine print wasn't read isn't valid. That opens the doors to users being able to sue the CC company.

Sounds like its win-win!

In essence, this would set a nation-wide precedent that signed contracts AREN'T valid. I can't see how the courts could rule in favor of the CC company.

Just to be clear to everyone not bothering to read the link -- This is a Russian man and a Russian bank. It would have zero effect here.

No, but it would effect over a billion people in Russia.

That's the number of Russian credit card holders. Several hold a few of my credit cards.
