Stolen cell phone lands man $11,000 bill

Here is a scary story for any cell phone user. That pretty much includes everyone. A guy called and told us he had an $11,000 phone bill after his daughter's phone was stolen! Yikes!

How can a bill get that large? The phone was taken to El Salvador and used a lot. After talking with Cingular, they did drop the bill down to $6,500. But the consumer has a collection agency after him now.

Read our story to see how you can prevent this from happening to you. CONTACT: Leave me a Houston or Texas media news tip | COMMENT: Click to leave your thoughts on this post here
