Agadir B. told the Heute daily he got the bill after filing his tax return for 2008, when he earned around 600 euros a month as a trainee, with the demand that he paid on percent -- 290,420.13 euros --
''I completely flipped out, '' he said. '' My mum nearly had a nervous breakdown.''
His mother even phoned the tax office to query the bill and was told: ''You don't have a discussion at the checkout at Billa (a supermarket chain), you just pay,'' he said.
However, a second letter later came through from the tax office, declaring the first one void and apologising for the ''technical error,'' the paper said. (AFP)
