Sometimes being your own bank comes at a cost.  Twitch user Slyle meant to donate $25 to his favorite streamer, but ended up donating 25 whole ETH tokens for a whopping $15,107.36.  What ensued was a 4 hour ordeal to get the funds returned.

YOINK

Thankfully this story has a happy ending and the streamer was a nice guy or cared about his reputation and returned the funds to the rightful owner.  Careful out there guys and gals.
