In June, some guy tipped a waitress in Pennsylvania $3,000. The guy got a ton publicity from it and said it was to bring attention to a religious social media movement.

At first they didn't think it was real, but the charge cleared and the person that left tip explained it was for the social media movement "Tips for Jesus." But it turns out the guy ended up disputing the charge with his bank and won't pay. The waitress got her money.

The restaurant had been communicating with the man on Facebook, but is no longer responding. So now the restaurant is out three grand, so they're suing him for it.
