Hi. I'm Aaron Weinman. I remember one day after high school, I went to the local "milk bar" (Australia's version of the bodega) to withdraw $50 from the ATM. I was excited. I was off to the "shops" (mall) to buy a new pair of And1 shoes.

Much to my surprise (and delight) the ATM spat out two $50 bills. I thought it odd, so I checked my balance. Just $50 deducted from my account!

I did it again. Another $50 request spat out two $50 bills! How good was life?!

Now picture something similar, but instead of an extra $50 bill, you wind up with an extra $10 or so million. Well that happened to a crypto player named Thevamanogari Manivel in Australia this week.

Donald Horne dubbed Australia "The Lucky Country" in his 1964 book, and my home land down under has been saddled with that nickname ever since.

I think it's safe to say that Manivel might be counting her lucky stars, and dollar bills, too.

1. Crypto.com accidentally sent $10.5 million to Manivel rather than $100. It took seven months to realize it made the $10 million boo-boo, but Manivel bought a $1.35 million house with the extra cash.

The crypto exchange made the mistaken payment in May 2021, but the error (this time it wasn't Citi's fault) was not picked up until a company audit last December.

Turns out Crypto.com put the wrong account number into the payment-amount field, according to a default judgment released last Friday in the Supreme Court of Victoria.

Crypto.com launched legal action against Manivel and her sister Thilagavathy Gangadory, who pocketed some of the $10.5 million payment.

Manivel sent $430,000 of the extra money to her daughter. She also purchased the $1.35 million home in Craigieburn, a suburb about 25 kilometers north of Melbourne's central business district. Ever the generous one, Manivel then transferred ownership of the house to Gangadory, who lives in Malaysia.

Full disclosure, I'm from the suburbs of Melbourne, and I cannot believe a house in Craigieburn is now worth over $1 million?! Extraordinary.
