Woman suing AMEX for her million dollar credit card bill...
Fake Saudi princess-model countersues American Express.

Excerpt:

NEW YORK (AP) It's not my fault. I'm mentally ill. That's the argument a woman is using to sue American Express for two (M) million dollars after she ran up nearly one (M) million dollar in charges and couldn't pay the bill.

Prosecutors say the woman - 40-year-old Antoinette Millard - posed as a Saudi princess to steal hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of merchandise. She is now suing America Express saying she was mentally incompetent when she opened her account and the company should have known it.

6. Yeah. And my credit card company gave me
psychological evaluation before they sent the card too!

Give me a break. This woman should be thrown out of court.
