Philly Cabbie Gets $1,000 Anonymous Tip


An anonymous passenger made a Philadelphia cab driver's night with the tip of a lifetime.  He paid $1,000 for a $4.31 fare.
Oumar Maiga's bosses revealed the hefty gratuity after waiting to make sure the credit card cleared and it wasn't an error.
The West African immigrant received the $989.98 tip December 13, 2014. 

Maiga's bosses told reporters that the cabbie and passenger chatted briefly during the mile-long trip from the city's Old City section to Columbus Boulevard.
Maiga said his shift had been a little hectic. The passenger said he'd make it a great night and punched in the tip.
Maiga asked if he'd made a mistake. The passenger replied, "I know what I did."
Maiga's bosses said the card company wouldn't give up the mystery tipper's name.
