Magician david shows us an old coin trick. A kennedy halfdollar. You dont see many of these anymore. They are very rare. The coin disappears. But with a few rubs of his palm, it looks like it vanishes completely, but it can reappear. It reappears. Too bad it didnt happen like that in real life. It is certainly not any magic book would have taught me to get out of. In real life, all the money disappeared from davids bank account. He found out when citibank called asking if he had been running up charges during the night. Im like unless im doing something in my sleep, that was not me. He checked his wallet, his debit card was missing and it was no trick. His debit card has chip technology. His atm requires him to insert it and leave it there for transactions. He forgot to take the card back. I walked away unfortunately with the card inside. He believes someone watched him type his pin and snatched the card. The person drained his account then deposited this phony check and kept buying. Citibank investigated, but to his shock denied his fraud claim, saying he could have made those transactions. He had the account 14 years. Never made purchases like this but says citibank refused to review Surveillance Video to find out who did. At this point i was at my wits end. He contacted us. Citibank reviewed the case and reversed their decision, returning his money. They said while the claim was denied initially, it has been honored. And the money vanishes. David said this time magic couldnt have brought back his money
