A 21 year old guy named Chris was shocked to find a 4,954.14 bill from AT&T for his iPhone. This prompted him to launch his first ever video online on YouTube, and you can check it out below.

I just about had a heart attack when i checked out my phone bill...

Chris has complained to AT&T and they're looking in to it. He said AT&T will let him know about his account by December 6th. Unfortunately for Chris he earns only $25,000/year. $4,954.14 is indeed a large amount to pay for a phone bill! AT&T will do anything to rip customers off and charge them extra. Thankfully Chris didn't get a billion pages of statement. View the video and feel free to post any comments on what you think about this.
