Nú fer ađ líđa ađ skuldadögum!

Eins og viđ vitum fáum viđ ársins skemmtilegustu kreditkorta reikninganna um mánađarmótin. Hinsvegar er ţađ afstćtt hvađ hár kreditkorta reikningur sé í raun (sjá frétt ađ neđan).

Einnig var ég ađ pćla hvort viđ gćtum lokađ búllunni, Íslandi í smá tíma eftir ţessi mánađarmót. Hvers vegna...jú...ţeir svaka ríku einu sinni gaurar eru nú allir blankir...ţó svo engin viđurkenni ţađ....og hin almenni launţegi verpur nú líka blankur.

Rakst á ţessa frétt ađ utan:

 

American Express' credit card motto may be "Don't leave home without it," but a Minnesota car dealer may have gone too far, allegedly owing millions in charges.

The credit card company is suing Forest Lake Ford President John D. Berken in federal court for allegedly failing to pay back $3.85 million it says he took out in $90,000 increments throughout October and November, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reported Tuesday.

Berken, 39, said the civil lawsuit filed Friday caught him off guard.

"It's the first I've heard of it. As far as I know, we're up to date" in making payments, he said. "The last charge was for $200,000, and we made it like clockwork."

A search of public records showed no criminal charges against Berken, the newspaper said. However, the Pioneer Press said state records indicate a man named John D. Berken with the same birth date as the Forest Lake car dealer has several check-forgery and theft convictions on his record and served about 20 months in prison in the mid-1990s. Berken said that's not him.

An attorney for American Express said the company generally does not talk about pending litigation.
