13yrs Old Girl Blows Over $63,000 Of Her Family’s Entire Fortune On Mobile Games

The teen’s fascination with her smartphone and apparent overuse of it was reportedly spotted by the teacher. According to ”Elephant News,” the mother discovered she had just R1.33 left in her bank account.

She admitted spending R323 163 on the games, R561 330 on in-game purchases, and R267 355 on games for 10 of her other students after her father questioned her about her spending.

“When they asked me to pay for their games, I paid despite feeling reluctant,’’ the girl was quoted as saying.

She also remembers her mother giving her the card’s password in case she required cash when they were away.
