Credit Card Mess Looming

I came across this article from The Consumerist. Apparently Amy Christiansen decided to test the system in which a bank approves credit card applications. Her

Christiansen said she decided to allow Bennett to fill out a credit card application from Bank of America. He accurately wrote in his birthday in 2002, his annual income of $0, and the fact that he is an “other,” that is, neither a homeowner nor a renter. He signed his name in writing that was obviously that of a child, she said.

Bank of America spokesmen says it was a system error! If it happens in America, I just wonder when it will reach Malaysia? Anyone game to try this on one of the banks in Malaysia. This could create a credit card mess not to mention news.
